brightmeadowknits: Sharp tool!

http://brightmeadowknits.blogspot.com/2014/06/sharp-tool.html

Monday, June 16, 2014. My KH-864 carriage must have been damaged in transit (or maybe while packing it) last time I took it out for a demonstration. When I was running the needles across the bed, they made a "clacking" sound when needles were in upper working position. If I put the needles in hold, the carriage would not pass in one direction only. Or maybe I got some yarn caught and pulled something out of place. Just to be sure, I took the needles out of hold (I can learn, even at my advanced age!

brightmeadowknits: Do-over

http://brightmeadowknits.blogspot.com/2014/06/do-over.html

Friday, June 20, 2014. I knitted, blocked, tagged, and wove in the ends on five swatches last week. As I was measuring the gauge to compare them to a reference swatch of stockinette, I realized that on two of them, I had inadvertently forgotten to reset the row counter when changing to main yarn after knitting the first ten rows. So I was ten rows short on both of them. I was able to knit them fairly quickly! Sounds like it might be fun! I am going to "get my colors done" soon, just for confirmation. .

brightmeadowknits: June 2014

http://brightmeadowknits.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html

Sunday, June 22, 2014. Life lessons contemplated while knitting swatches in the basement. 1 Light is good. More light is better. Even though it was mid-afternoon, it is a little dark in the basement workroom. Moving a light closer to the knitting machine made it much easier to pick up dropped stitches, count, and just generally knit easier. 2 Read the directions all the way through before starting. 3 If you don't have time to do it right, when will you have time to do it over? Picking up a dropped stitch...

brightmeadowknits: Seed Stitch versus Moss Stitch

http://brightmeadowknits.blogspot.com/2014/07/seed-stitch-versus-moss-stitch.html

Sunday, July 6, 2014. Seed Stitch versus Moss Stitch. It has come to my attention that there is confusion about these two stitches. It seems that some people understand Seed Stitch to be the same as Moss stitch. Other people think that Moss stitch is a different stitch than seed stitch. Here is the straight scoop:. Seed stitch aka moss stitch aka pearl stitch aka British Moss stitch aka single moss stitch aka single seed stitch. Worked over even number of stitches. Row 1: *K1, P1*, repeat to end. Im an i...

brightmeadowknits: January 2015

http://brightmeadowknits.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html

Saturday, January 3, 2015. I was having trouble moving the carriage on one of the KH 930s yesterday while trying to make lace for the first time since 1994. Replaced the carriage on the bed of the machine and observed I was still having trouble moving the carriage when patterning. I once again entered into the trance. I realized that the belt was buckling when I tried to move it manually by inserting a tool into a slot in the belt. After replacing and reassembling everything, I worked the carriage back a...
