| SHIRLEY R Have been following you, but have only just been able to find chat. |
| Sherrie B Thank you so much! |
| Jean S I have problems starting the punch card patterns after working in stockinette |
| Lorraine L I'm waiting for more than basic DBJ is great |
| Nancy H punch card info please!!! |
| Jean S basics on punch cards and how to make the patterns work for you. |
| Karyn B I'd love punchcard info, etc! |
| Patricia H stitch patterns is a great idea |
| Sherrie B Would love a future class about machine settings for double bed Jacquard. |
| Jane W does it need to be dragged over wax? |
| Jane W tricks for using hand yarn on machine? |
| Mary Ann B One of the enticing things in favor of the LK150 is the price point. Much cheaper than metal bed machines. |
| Nancy M what yarn did you use for the lenvelope? |
| Marie-Jo C Good idea, Elspa ! The result can't be desappointing ! |
| double bed Tuck on passap is really drapey. |
| Nancy M great idea... color can be distracting... also a pouty disgruntled looking model has turrned me off of more than one pattern |
| Jane W would want to make it jacquard perhaps on the passap to get thick enough? |
| Sherrie B Love that. |
| Jane W almost done the pattern hand knit garter bulky |
| Jackie O Assymetry is big right now in all fashion pieces from tops to skirts. |
| Elspa M I look at handknitting patterns as a âformâ and focus on the model and colours and not the teknic. Then almost everythin is possible |
| Lynda M I do sometimes knit the rib then proceed with the rest on the machine from a hand knitting pattern. |
| Nancy M love working with a schematic... opens a lot of room for imagination |
| Phyllis K D Knowing how to hand knit helps to understand what the machine is doing and what it can do. |
| Betty E J for smaller details |
| Betty E J hand knitting or crocheting is much more portable |
| Sherrie B I love to finish a garment and then in the evenings I just keep adding crochet touches and I love the way it turns out. |
| Nancy M i suppose the intralac could be done if you have absolutely nothing else to do. |
| Marie-Jo C That's what I don't like with hand knitting too long : it's not quick enough for me !! |
| Nancy M LOL TOO much trouble! |
| Sherrie B Jean S. Me too! |
| Jean S Sherrie B. - love the idea of a lacy poncho. |
| Kelly C why not tuck |
| Sherrie B The poncho would be beautiful in lace too. Or done on the bulky with tuck stitch and a thinner yard to mimic lace. |
| Nancy M same for crochet learn enough to finish and to add trim |
| Kelly C Hi Sue Kelly I hate to hand knit |
| Matthew F Joan - is there a play button on the video you might have to hit that to start the show |
| Nancy M did a raglan cardigan sideways for a client a few years ago... was a fun challenge |
| Jean S For texture you could use a tuck stitch as well. My favorite shawl was a full tuck stitch piece.. Airy and comfortable at the same time |
| From Bridgnorth in England |
| I have knitted from a hand knitting pattern on my Brother knitting machine. |
| Nancy M would 1x1 tuck to make mock seed st |
| Nancy M i would try sideways knitted but without stripes |
| Joan W Got it now thx |
| Nancy H Good idea Betty |
| Annie L I use hand knitting to enhance my machine knitting and use my machine to speed up parts of my hand knitting. My favorite garments contain hand and machine knitting and crochet. |
| Betty E J use a punchcard for the insert |
| Nancy H Yes Joan it has |
| Gio R Refresh the page Joan |
| Joan W Has the live show started? I canât see or hear Sue |
