Garage Sale Find

I was so excited when I saw this at a Garage Sale last Friday. Mine for only $2.

Yes, it’s a knitting machine,

and it makes these.

They are double thickness no less. I can feel your excitement from here. But wait until you see what you can make.

Be still my beating heart, a halter top. Might need a few more puffs than recommended.

But these flowers will be my first project. They are so kitsch I have to have some. I can’t believe somebody threw this out. It will be a museum piece one of these days. You mark my words.

I remember those knitting machines from when I was a kid!!! I would have given my treasured Schwinn with the sparkly purple banana seat for one. Have a blast creating with it.
