I teach, service and repair knitting machines, I also have a large library of patterns, plus pattern making software, also a collection of knitting needles of all kinds, plus crochet hooks and a couple of small weaving looms.
Knitting and yarn work is, however only one of my pastimes - I sew quite a bit, traditional garments and patchwork - and (noticing your name) - I play a Framus 'Texan' guitar and have a repertoire of several hundred folk songs.

Wow. I'm just starting my first pair of socks, can I come live with you?
