Excellent Bodgeitandscarper, I had thought it might be one of those. Now a while ago there was an American lady by the name of Mary Louise Norman and she produced some knitting books for this machine, aptly called 'Flying High with the 950i', so do go looking at second hand book sites, you may just be lucky. The only book I have of hers is one of knitting Bargello as I do happen to love embroidered or canvas work bargello. I am sure you will have lots of fun with this machine there must be a lot out there on the second hand market, may be worth also keeping an eye open for another, same model, for spares.
