Manual Tuck Stitch (Machine Knit)
Simple tips on how to do manual tuck stitch on a knitting machine (without punch cards or electronics). Seriously, it's so pretty and so easy! Once you've got the stitch down, play with pattern placement, yarns, putting stripes between tucks, loose gauge, ladders beside it, etc. It is so versatile!

Omg thank you so much i was able to fix everything! I am so glad i found your cideo cos i had looked at others that didnt explain it so well. The turtle neck is perfect description too. I have literally finally been able to use my machine snd make a big peice at last.
Thabks you're a life saver
Oops, forgot to sat thanks for the short lesson on weaving in the yarn ends. Thank you!
Are you using a bulky knitting machine?
I am! An SK 155
Do you have a video to show how to knit names in your projects?
This explained so many things! Thank you.
Do you have other video's on manual stitches? Thank you so much - this video "SUNK IN" :D I haven't been able to do any special stitches until I saw this. I'm loving my Studio 155 and this was a game changer. Already on my third tuck stitch blanket! So many of the punch cards aren't modern or minimal enough for me. Kate
Thank you
thank you! i could not for the life of me figure out how to get this to work manually
Same! This is the first time I have gotten this to work for me - including punch cards! THANK YOU!
Thanks so much rachel! Could you use this function to replicate mosaic knit?
Thank you so much for this! It gave me the courage to try colorwork which I'm really excited about. Is there color dominance or an automatic change in gauge that you should consider (as compared to hand knit where you take these into account)?
Thank you for these videos! They're really clear and helpful!
Thank you!😀
O resultado é muito bonito 👏 Obrigada 💐 🇧🇷. 🙏
Dank je wel voor het delen....net een trui met strepen gebreid ...volgende ga ik zeker deze methode gebruiken
I'm so glad I could help! Goodluck with your next sweater!
Thanks for this and your videos I just got my sweater knitting machine and waiting till I finish crocheting two blankets I’m working on until I start working on the machine. So I’m working to learn how to use it and basics before I get it out of the box. I’m so excited.
Thank you for this! I never cast off behind the pegs and it always ended up so tight
Can this be used as a cuff for a sock?
This just saved my life Rachel. I had been loosing my mind as my knit manual for my machine told me TRIANGLE on the side levers and I was not getting what I needed. Many fails!
Thank u so much.
great video, thanks! can you use the same methods when knitting in tuck stitch?
Thanks! You can use this method in tuck stitch, but there are a few complicating factors (that also have work arounds). The multi-stitch decrease in tuck would be basically the same thing. Where it gets tricky is the increase, because you're putting all your increased sts out to D position while you knit the first few rows (to build up enough cloth to put the weights on). You could just put them out, but not QUITE in D position - this way the sts are still far enough away from the end of the needle, so they don't jump off, but the needles aren't all the way in D. If they WERE all the way out to D, your machine would treat them as tuck sts. The other option is to have a scrap piece of cloth already made, hang it where you want your increases, cast-on the increases on top of that cloth and hang the weights on the scrap cloth. You'd have to cut it off (or attach it with ravel cord) when you're done. Of course, if you can plan your increases inbetween rows of tuck, you could put the cam dial back to 'O' for the increase rows, then hang your weights, go back to tuck and you're off to the races. Hope that made sense! I may get a video up one day that explains that better :)
@@rachelmacmachineknits995 Thanks so much for this reply - really helpfull :) Love the scrap cloth idea! I will do some tests...
Thanks.
My pleasure!
Thank you for this!! I was confused about how this could be done on both sides, but you answered my question on if that one row made a difference.. and even how to make it perfect if I want to. Soo helpful, I'm relieved lol
Yay!!
Thank you for this video, well explained :-)
