About your Spool Knitter!

In the hope of discovering more about spool knitters, I invite you to share your memories of the spool knitter you had when you were a child....
Was it a gift?
What year (approx) did you receive it?
Can you describe it/and the box it came in?
What was it called? (Name given by maker)
Do you still have your spool knitter?
Are you collecting them now?
I will also be displaying these little remembrances along with
my collection of spool knitters in our future Sewing Museum.
You can leave your story in comments or if you would prefer, send an email.
Thankyou so much for sharing.
