Knitting Machine Repair

Following my knitting machine saga for the Sharpe's Pottery Museum exhibition work, I have today started looking for a place to get mine repaired.  It doesn't help that I don't have the name of the machine to hand so I will bring it home from college tomorrow.   Whilst searching for repair man/woman, I found a knitting machine club in Lichfield which could be a useful resource for learning how to use my machine.  

Three Spires Machine Knitting Club
Viv Denham, 01543 676186
1.00 p.m. to 3.00 p.m on Wednesday (1st and 3rd of month) | Every two weeks
The Three Spires Machine Knitting Club welcome everyone who is interested in machine knitting, whether you are a beginner, someone more experienced, or perhaps someone returning to machine knitting after a few years’ break.  Hand knitters are also most welcome.
Meetings incorporate demonstrations of knitting techniques, displays of recently knitted garments, and visiting Speakers.  We also put on regular coach trips to various knitting venues.
Our meetings have a friendly atmosphere and give members the chance to discuss knitting (and non-knitting) related topics over a cup of tea with like-minded people.

New members are always welcome - do come along and join us! 

As my knitted work has been given high praise from my tutors, I am thinking about using it in my final project in some way.
