Review of Passap electronic knitting machines.

… still a work in progress

Pros:

(+) More needles than any of the hobbyist’s Silver Reed/Studio and/or Brother electronic knitting machines.

(+) Double bed: no need to putz around with aligning robbers to the main needlebed.

(+) Numerous built-in patterns.

(+) Knit great double bed jacquard, lace, etc.

Cons:

(-) Bulky: big in size; bigger footprint than other knitting machines

(-) More expensive than other electronic knitting machines. The exclusion would be bulky electronic Brother KH270, Silver Reed SK890, fine-gauge Silver Reedk SK830, mid-gauge Silver Reed SK860, and standard-gauge Brother KH970. Those machines are either on the same price range or just a bit more expensive depending on the geographic area and demand in your market.
