Watch the operation of a 1900 Singer Model 28K. www.thesewingmachineorphanage.com Identification Manufacturer: Singer Model: 28k Serial Number: P297796 Estimated Date: July–December 1900 Country of Manufacture: Kilbowie, Clydebank, Scotland Quantity Allotted: 130000 The Singer Model 28K hand crank sewing machine was a compact and dependable household machine built for everyday home sewing in the early 1900s. Manufactured at Singer’s Kilbowie factory in Clydebank, Scotland, the “K” designation identifies it as one of Singer’s well-made British-produced machines known for durability and smooth operation. A key feature of the 28K was its vibrating shuttle bobbin system, which produced a strong, consistent lockstitch suitable for common household sewing like mending, hemming, dressmaking, and basic repairs. The hand crank drive made it especially useful for homes without electricity, allowing the user to sew anywhere without the need for a treadle cabinet or power source. Many were sold in portable cases, making them easy to store and transport. For a homeowner in the early 1900s, the Singer 28K was an important practical tool that helped families repair clothing, make garments at home, and extend the life of household fabrics. Its reliability and solid construction made it a trusted machine in its time, and it remains a valued and respected model among collectors today.
