Knit-tastic!

Hurray! The knitting machine has arrived courtesy of my lovely husband and the wonders of ebay. Funny thing is, it's exactly the same one my mum used to spend hours on, sitting at the top of the stairs churning out matching family jumpers and snazzy "humpty dumpty" men. Well, OK, not the EXACT one but you know what I mean.
Now I just need to work how how to use the blooming thing!
I'm not sure why I don't have a jumper of my own in this pic. Maybe it was in production......?
