Those cats, though....

The code for my Valentine heart gives an example of how to get knits and tucks on the same row - the heart itself is stockinette/single jersey, while the background is brioche/cardigan stitch. This...

Hi Mark Anderson I am by no means an expert, but I have been through a similar thought process to yours, and I can tell you what I have learned by experimenting on the Kniterate. It is actually no...

Thanks, Gerard Rubio!  This change in the code looks very promising - I'll try it as soon as I get a chance.   In the mean time, I can share a snapshot of the result.    I had a deadline (note to s...

I agree with Robert, but even with the yarn tension settings between the cone and feeder optimized, I have also encountered problems with yarn breakage.  Based on what I see in your photo, I might ...

Hi @..., As Robert Ingemarsson points out, nm 6-8 is recommended for the Kniterate....However, I did a little experimenting on my Kniterate to test how it worked with finer yarn.  My motivation was...

Hi ralv lundahl, I have also encountered the issues you have described.  I try to remember to always check the "rear" view in pattern mode before compiling, but occasionally I forget and a wrong co...

Thanks, Robert Ingemarsson, for the great bind on tip!! It is genius!  Knitting a row on the front bed after the zigzag row while still racked releases those stitches from the needles.  I can see h...

Also, I think the close up below is the green one that OJ mentioned.  It is actually a two color brioche rather than plating.  I got the pattern from one of Nancy Marchant's books. The green and gr...

I did do a couple of small plated piece, but it is not posted above.  I'll post it here - the black goes through the "regular" feeder opening and the red goes through the plating hole. Plating seem...
