JUKI knitting machines

JUKI knitting machines are very interesting in their designs, working mechanisms, and color combinations. I own a couple of JUKI knitting machines but have not had a chance to work on them yet.

Thank you for reading this post, don’t forget to subscribe!

I wish there were more information on various JUKI knitting machines (what year they were released, manuals, etc.), but the information is scarce. I am hoping to go through a stash of old magazines and find information on JUKI machines in those.

Below is the list of machines I found existing on the Internet. Stay tuned as I learn more about their gauges, mechanisms of operation, and other features (all of which are very sparse). Some JUKI machines are sometimes branded under the Erika name. Some machines were released under Singer’s name and some under Lemair (for British and Australian markets, respectively).

To my current knowledge, JUKI manufactured only standard-gauge knitting machines.
