I thought I was the Ultimate Sweater Machine!

I took the plunge and bought myself the Ultimate Sweater Machine. I was a little skeptical about how well it would work, especially with yarn other than worsted weight, but after a few posts to knitlist, and reassuring emails from some of the experienced USMers, I dove in and bought it.

Boy, am I glad I did. I made three hats this weekend. Nothing fancy, just a basic Stockinette stitch with a rolled brim. Each hat took me about two hours from start to finish. And, you think that's speedy?! The USM boasts that it can knit 600 stitches a minute. And I thought I was the ultimate sweater machine!
