Hi
I think I live a machine knitting desert!
I have not used a knitting machine for years, but have just bought a Brother 836 at a sale and have just taken a subscription to the magazine. I used to use Worth Knitting because their 4-ply Acrylic was great. However, I can't find them now so they must have closed down. Does anyone know who sells their 4-ply? It was branded as their own, but they must have got it from somewhere! Also, does anyone know where I could get 2/30s 1-ply yarns (or any ply for that matter) near to Ellesmere in Shropshire. I don't think Machine knitting has reached my area.
Thanks
Linda

Hi Linda
You are right, Worth Knitting closed down several years ago and the company that took over is nowhere to be found either!
However, Metropolitan in Nantwich is fairly close to you and they advertise in MKM. There are several other suppliers who advertise in MKM and they also do mail order and internet ordering. Also eBay has a Machine Knitting section with lots of yarn and accessories.
Hope you find what you are looking for.
Kind regards, Sue

Hi there, I, like you have started machine knitting after a long while and, after research have found Yeoman do some really lovely yarn, the postage is free too.
