PREPARATION OF YARNS

Your machine has been designed to give you perfect results using a wide range of yarns from cotton thread to very thick yarn. However, for practice it is best to start with A NEW MEDIUM 4-PLY YARN (see page 9).

Correct preparation of yarns before you start knitting is very important. This extra care will make knitting more enjoyable, easier, and the quality of your garment much better.

It is not possible to knit from a bank of yarn or hand wound ball, as for machine knitting it is essential for the yarn to feed into the machine freely. Place the bank onto your arms or a Skein Holdar and wind into a ball using the Yarn Ball Winder.

The Skein Holder and Yarn Ball Winder are useful optional accessories.

When yarn is rewound, ensure that the yarn end comes out freely without lifting the ball from the table.

We recommend you wax the yarn during winding by simply letting the yarn run over an ordinary white candle or knitting wax.

THREADING AUTO TENSION WITH TWO COLOUR YARNS A, B

For practice, prepare TWO NEW BALLS OR CONES of different colour medium 4-ply yarns A, B and thread them as follows:

MAIN YARN A

Thread the left side of Auto Tension as follows:

1. through left Tension Guide eyelet,

2. between two Tension Discs "A" and under the copper colour Guide Pin "B".

3. through left yarn guide eyelot,

4. through left Tension Spring eyelet,

5. through left yarn guide ayelet.

Pull the yarn end and hook it in the upper Yarn Clip "C".

SECOND YARN B

Thread the second yarn into the right side of Auto Tension in the same manner as you threaded the main yarn into the left side of the Auto Tension.

Hopk the yarn end in the lower Yam Clip.

ADJUSTING TENSION DIAL

Adjust the Tension Dial according to type of yarn as guided below by turning the Tension Dial "A" until a required number corresponds to the < shape cut-out "B".

In this instance, 3 is suitable.

Cotton or nylon thread 6-7

This yarn (2-ply)....4-5

Medium yarn (4-ply)....3

Thick yarn 1-2

Incorrect threading of the Auto Tension will never assure success in knitting. Before going further, ensure that:

1. correct tension is given to yarn,

2. yarn comes out freely from yarn ball.

It is advisable to pull out a certain length of yarn of the ball before starting to knit.

LEARNING ABOUT STITCH SIZE AND YARN

STITCH DIAL

Ensure that the correct Stitch Dial number is always selected for the yarn you will select.

Stitch Dial regulates the size of a stitch. When the Stitch Dial is set to 0, the tightest stitch size is obtained. (smallest stitch)

When the Stitch Dial is set to 10, the loosest stitch size is obtained. (largest stitch)

To select a number, turn the Stitch Dial until the required number or dot corresponds to ▲

If the tension is too tight — it will be difficult or even impossible to knit, you will use more yarn and waste money — your garment will be hard and uncomfortable to wear.
If the tension is too loose — your garment will have no shape or will very soon lose its shape.

For practice, continue to knit with different Stitch Dial numbers as follows:

1. with the Stitch Dial number 3, knit 10 rows - tightest stitch size is obtained.
2. with the Stitch Dial number 9, knit 10 rows - loosest stitch size is obtained.

STITCH SIZE AND STITCH DIAL NUMBER FOR A YABN

B - Stitch Dial at 5 with yarn ⑤(4-ply)
C. - Stitch Dial at 9 with yam ⑥ (thick)

PATTERN CARD PANEL FUNCTION

STOP KNOB

When the Stop Knob "A" is set to ●, the Punch Card is locked and not advanced by the Punch Card Feeding Dial "C" and by the Carriage.

When the Stop Knob "A" is set to ▼, the Punch Card is free and advanced by the Punch Card Feeding Dial "C" and by the Carriage.

Two abstract black-and-white pixelated patterns with diamond and triangle motifs, no text or symbols present.

L KNOB

When the L Knob "B" is set to S, the Punch Card is advanced every row as the Carriage moves and standard pattern is knitted.

When the L. Knot is set to L, the Punch Card is advanced every second row as the Carriage moves, thus producing vertically expanded pattern.

L KNO8 INDICATOR

Colours in the L Knob Indicator "D" alternate.

Blue.....the current row is repeated on the next row.

Red.....the Punch Card advances to the next row and a new pattern row is knitted.

LEARNING ABOUT STITCH SIZE AND YARN

STITCH DIAL

Ensure that the correct Stitch Dial number is always selected for the yarn you will select.

Stitch Dial regulates the size of a stitch.

When the Stitch Dial is set to 0, the tightest stitch size is obtained, (smallest stitch)

When the Stitch Dial is set to 8, the loosest stitch size is obtained. (largest stitch)

To select a number, turn the Stitch Dial until the required number or dot corresponds to ▲.

If the tension is too tight — it will be difficult or even impossible to knit, you will use more yarn and waste money — your garment will be hard and uncomfortable to wear.

If the tension is too loose — your garment will have no shape or will very soon lose its shape.

For practice, continue to knit with different Stitch Dial numbers as follows:—

1. with the Stitch Dial number 3, knit 10 rows - small stitch size is obtained.
2. with the Stitch Dial number 8, knit 10 rows - large stitch size is obtained.

To memorize the pattern

Memorizing the pattern is required when:

1. Carriage has been pulled out from the Needle Bed,
2. unravelling has been done.

FOR MAIN CARRIAGE

If unravelling has been done, return the Punch Card and Row Counter by the same number of rows unravellled.

In case of using L KNOB, return the Punch Card ONLY HALF THE NUMBER of rows unravelled.

For example: 3 rows incorrectly knitted. Unravel 4 rows. Return the Card only 2 rows.

Set the Stop Knob to ● and remove the Magic Cams if they are in use.

For Model 260K Carriage, disengage the Row Counter Tripper.

Remove yarn from the Yarn Feeder.

Push the Release Lever to the right and with the Carriage Handle lifted, move the Carriage once or twice across the Needle Bed until it has passed the 24 needles corresponding to the Touch Levers "A" and place it at the side of yarn.

Insert yarn into the Yarn Feeder and set the Controls to their original positions.

Continue to knit.

FOR LACE CARRIAGE

If unravelling has been done, return the Punch Card and Flow Counter by the same number of rows unravelled.

When the Punch Card for Fashion Lace (L-9 and L-10) is in use, return the Card by the same numbers unravelled over the Card Memory Numbers "A" skipping the marked Card Memory Numbers "B". "B" is not knitted rows but rows for transferring stitches.

To reform stitch

Reforming stitch is required when the stitches have dropped while knitting.

A DROPPED STITCH

(1) Insert the One-Eye Transfer Tool into a stitch below the dropped stitch and replace it into needle hook together with loose yarn.
[2] Slowly pull the needle out until the stitch is behind the open latch leaving the loose yarn in the hook.
(3) Push the needle back so the latch will close and the stitch behind will slide over the hook reforming a stitch.

STITCHES DROPPED IN SEVERAL ROWS

(1) Insert the Tappet Tool into a stitch a few rows below the dropped stitch from the side away from you. Unravel the stitches down to the Tool.
With the other hand, pull the knitting downwards. This makes unravelling easier.

(2) Push the Tool toward you so the stitch will be behind the open latch. Catch the yarn crossing above into the hook.
(3) By pulling the Tool backwards, the latch will close and the loose yarn will be trapped in the hook.

(4) Continue pulling and the old stitch will slide down over the closed latch forming a new stitch in the book.

(5) Repeat this operation up to the top.

If one or more stitches have dropped or when pattern knitting using the Punch Card, we recommend you to unravel than to reform stitches. (see page 66, 67)
