Regina II Hand Knitting Machine and Regina Princess

 

The Regina 11 - Another wonderful vintage machine, which belonged to Ethel Rose Smith and was kindly, donated by her nephew Ian Smith.

​

This beautiful machine is reminiscent of the Minitex machine by Paramount and is shaped like a bullet, coloured in a wonderful green stove enamel.  The comb is made of aluminum and the pins are stainless steel.  This machine has the unusual specialty of promoting garter stitch – it’s the easiest knit to do, it does stocking stitch with a comb accessory. 

The Regina Princess is a very basic machine that operates with sinkers similar to the KM 4500's
