Any owner of the LK150 knitting machine quickly has to come to grips with the fact that this machine has no ribbing attachment, and that if they want to knit a garment with ribbed edges, they need to learn how to overcome this obstacle, either by knitting a rib by hand on needles, hand manipulating it, or doing a mock rib. Or, knitting some other kind of edge to their garment. In this series I’...

Knitmaster Weavemaster Loom Attachment

This is a video of me using the Weavemaster loom attachment on my Silver Reed / Knitmaster knitting machine. The punchcard mechanism on the machine is used to move the vertical warp threads, and the weft threads are inserted manually with a shuttle. I should point out I am a complete novice weaver, this is my first ever attempt at weaving.

Good afternoon ma my name is Sylvester from Nigeria please I have a silver reed 325 machine that also come with that brush but I don't know how to fix it on please can you help me with the video on how to fix the brush
hi! thx for the videoo! why did you transfer the needles from the waste yarn if they were to just come off?
@@tIoading which part do you mean? Can you give a time reference?
Sally Thank you for this!❤

Thank you so mail much Sally ...Your teachings make it so clear. I am a heavier 8months now & have only got this far by watching your videos.

Hi Sally, that’s an excellent video. I managed to pick up one of these yesterday. It has a couple of missing parts. The first one yours looks missing as well and it’s to do with the beater bar There’s a bit missing across the top of it. Well, I downloaded a knitking manual as it was free rather than buying the weave master manual. The main piece that’s missing seems to be where the actual weave master attaches to the knitting machine. To the side of it there are letters ABCD and E and a slot well, I think the missing part goes. Would it be possible? You could send me over a picture of how you connect yours? The machine is so old and rare I very much doubt I’m ever gonna be able to purchase this part but I’m wondering look if I could look at it I could make a workaround, any help? I would be really grateful thanks rachel.
@@rachelbyrne2287 sorry, I no longer own this attachment. There is a very helpful group on Facebook which might be able to assist you.

Hello. How would I get your excel sheet? Thank you!

Hi Sally, If I still lived in Ocean Reef I would come and visit you. However, I am off to a local machine knitting group tomorrow. Hope to get some info there. I will take my machine for them to try. Regards, JennyB
Hello, I have just bought a singer 321 and tried all methods to cast on but my machine just ties the yarn around the brushes or misses many stitches and leaves a hanging loop. The machine has just come back from a complete overhaul but I just cant get it to cast on. This is one part I like; Part 4 at 7:20. Any ideas please? I have also tried to follow your videos but to no avail. th-cam.com/video/vN4VJfgCA7Q/w-d-xo.htmlsi=SX9C_Z9SLTK2N7Y6 Sorry to post this here but it took a while to find one of your videos. Regards JennyB
@@JennyB-oj6sk this guy is using a different machine, it’s an old push button model, therefore not directly comparable to the 321. In the Machine Knitting Beginners and Returners Circle on Facebook you can find all of my tutorials. At the point you indicate on the video, the knitter has all his needles out to D position. If the Russell levers on the front of your carriage are at II, they will knit back. If the levers are at I, they won’t knit. Is there a knitting club near where you live? Finding a fellow knitter might help you.
Hello Sally, I have just bought a Singer 321 but I need a cast on comb. Are the Brother and others the same as the ones for singer? There seems to be a big difference in price on eBay. Regards, JennyB.
@@JennyB-oj6sk a cast on comb is not necessary (I never use one), but if you wish to use one, the Brother comb is suitable.
Hello, Slowed the video to %25 and took a screen shot at 11:22 to see just what bit you are picking up. Love your videos. Regards, JennyB

Hi how do I make a mesh pattern on a punch card please help
Please tell the name of this wool.
@@UniGadgetstudio this was some time ago, and I think it was “Cashmilon” 4 ply acrylic, from Yeoman Yarns, who are in the U.K.
Your ribber videos are extremely helpful. Not too many youtube machine knitters have videos for my machine, which is exactly the same as yours, thank God! Please feel free to do more of these ribber videos, and thanks so much!
Non knitting list of items :- nail files, plasters, coffee, wine ( depending on the progress and level of cussing 😂) pegs, safety pins and so the list goes on😂
❤
Love the jumper where did you get the pattern please
It is based on a KAL I did on Facebook, in the Machine Knitting Beginners and Returners Circle, which gives a series of schematics in basic sizes. And then I did a follow up video explaining how I designed and calculated the “patchwork” version. If you join the group, all the information is free.
A very informative video Sally and I really admire anyone who can punch a whole card with the pop punches. In the days before dye cutting machines I used the PM10 (or I paid someone to cut my cards for me!). Just as a note, at the risk of sounding pedantic (sorry!) at 4:46 Toyota machines don't use a belt mechanism, they use a grooved rotating rod that engages with the carriage and moves the needles. The rod spins backwards and forwards in time with the carriage movement - just as the belt mechanism would slide side to side (and in IMHO is much more reliable than the belt system which is prone to slipping).
@@countkostaki thanks for letting me know about the Toyota machines, glad you like the videos. I actually find card punching quite therapeutic!
Thank you sally I’ve learnt so much this last week from you! X getting there again 😊x
Thank you for this informative video.
Thank you so much for making these videos. I have an LK150 and with your help and super interesting and informative advice, I have been able to experiment with my machine ❤
Thank you so much for all your sharing! Great content. Looking forward to joining the Facebook group. Would you maybe consider sharing tips on how to finish a hand knit joke sweater on the lk150? Thnx!
@@rgranada-t6n I would knit the plain pieces first, then join them up in the round to knit the yoke.
Great techniques to know! I love your ribber videos especially, as I have just gotten my SK-280 ribber, which I've been really struggling with, and your tips are so helpful!
Greetings from France ❤😊. Lovely to see you again with another tutorial. Love the cables on the red cardigan. Hugs😊😊😊
@@Knittyneeds thank you! It was a longer gap than I’d intended between the two series, but life just gets in the way sometimes!
I always love your tutorials as they are so clear, well filmed and no nonsense and as a seasoned knitter, a joy to watch. Thank you ❤
Very useful Sally. Thank you
Your videos could be more factual and shorter
thank you. 😊
Can you share how to create cards from the motifs in the book?
It is explained in the video. I mark the pattern or motif that I want to punch on the card using the marker pen, then punch it out.
I mean thats way longer than latchooking them because youre doing the same one off and also dragging the carriage back and forth.
@@serendipidus8482 I did say it’s not quick! But it’s another option.
@@sallybutcherskalamundakrafts you actually said it doesn't take any longer than latchooking. That's why I commented that it is longer.
Hello Sally please please please will you tell me why the yarn gets tangled in brushes. I have got plastic but brushes protrude slightly. I am a new machine knitter and have had machine for a few weeks. Thank you for any help you give
Honestly? it’s a beginner thing and will go away as you improve. Your overhead tension could be slightly off so that the yarn slackens off then catches, your yarn could be a bit fluffy, the brushes could have a wonky bristle or two. Try to get into the habit of holding the yarn above the carriage just as you start to knit the row, to stop it looping. You can also use the yarn separators (Silver Reed only) which will keep the yarn travelling through the arm instead of underneath it.
should I use ravel cord instead of waste yarn? why or why not? thank you!
You could, but you don’t need to. Ravel cord is useful in separating two sections of knitting without unravelling one of them. I use it mostly on the bottom end of the work, as unravelling knitting from the bottom up doesn’t work.
Hi Sally. I'm been follow following your tutorials for punchcards, tensions etc. Ive brought a KL 116 knit leader for my chunky machine kh260. Can you help as i haven't got the 1-24 gauge rulers for the machine. 😢 Any help would be welcome xx
Sorry Joan, I don’t use Brother machines and never use a knitleader. If you’re in the U.K. try contacting Andrea at Andee Knits as she carries stock of a lot of spares
Thank you Sally
Grand! Thanks.
Hi. Is this the finest size available? Can this be used with the Royal Loom weaving attachment?
Hi, no it’s not the finest gauge. This is a standard gauge machine with 4.5mm needle spacing, and this is the gauge you need for the Loom attachment. There used to be a fine gauge manufactured, 3.6mm but they are quite rare and sought after.
where do you get the 10 cm. i have knit exactly as you describe in another video and my measurements is exactly like yours. but i don't understand the 10 cm part because if i measure my 'swatch it gives me 14x15 cm?
Don’t measure your swatch with a ruler! The green scale calculates the EQUIVALENT number of stitches and rows per 10cm. But that’s not the number of rows and stitches that you knitted so of course it won’t measure 10x10cm.
Thank you! I just had 450 rows unravel. I wish I could have found this video before I took it off. Obviously I’m a complete rookie
Great video Sally! Thanks!
Absolutely brilliant! Thank you so much!
C'est systématiquement la méthode que j'utilise après en avoir essayé plusieurs.. A mon avis, c'est la plus simple et la plus sûre... Pour les diminutions, comme vous l'avez précisé, je retire le premier rang de fil principal après les diminutions car je trouve que les vides des aiguilles manquantes se voient trop 🤭... donc je détricote ce premier rang sans problème et je reprends le tricot. 😇 Pour les augmentations je fais exactement comme vous Un grand merci pour cette démonstration très claire 🥰
Anyone know what could be causing dropped stitches on a LK150. Any suggestions would really be appreciated.
Sometimes you can get dropped stitches if one of your latches is closed when the carriage goes across, you can also get them when you have a break in your yarn, or you have some static when using synthetic yarns. Another reason can be your weights, if you have too much, or too little weight your stitches can drop, especially at the edges. I start with claw weights at the edges and every few inches along the bottom and move them after about 2-3 inches of knitting has been done. I hope this helps you a bit.
Is it in the same place? If so, could be a damaged needle. If random, could be insufficient weight
Thank you so much! This was definitely a big help!!
