Brother KH835 knitting machine

Brother KH835 knitting machine was made in Japan in the late 1970s. It has 200 needles, 4.5 mm apart, which makes it a standard-gauge machine. It has punchcard reading capabilities to automatically select needles.

It is almost a copy of its older sister, Brother KH830, which already has its own dedicated blog post. In fact, the manual of Brother KH835 is the same as for Brother KH830.

Brother KH835 also looks somewhat similar to Brother KH831 (except for the color scheme and all-Japanese writing).
