Today I have scored a knittingmachine and a set of accessories. This wikipage is an attempt at documentation.

ordered ~~new spongebar~~
~~replacement magnet for K carriage ? or just remagnetize existing one ...~~ actually , seems to be fine now? remagnetized it a bit ..
KRC-830 color changer ; ebay
doublebed/ribber!! KR850 or KR830 or KR838 ( -if- i can find this, it would also require KRC-900 instead of KRC-830 )

Items

KA-7380 - Table for knittingmachines

- this manual made me realize how to use the table ; http://knittsings.com/how-to-assemble-a-knitting-machine-tilt-stand-brother-studio-singer-silver-reed/

KA-8200 - Intarsia carriage
- no clue what this is

KA-9000 - Lace carriage
- for eh, yeah, lace patterns? not sure

Knitarsia - Multi Yarn Brake
- no clue what this is

Toyota Wool Winder
- to wind up wool!

Breiboek
- this includes some different documents;
  - Original Dutch Pricelist of October 1990
