Archive of Thread: Punch card not working with yarn Back

3 years ago
I tried using my punch cards for the first time. I followed the instructions and watched some videos then knit regular for a bit, put the card in and KC, but when I went to knit across for the memorizing row the yarn tangled up and the whole thing jammed. I tried different yarn and the same thing happened. If I run it across without yarn it selects the needles just fine..I'm super confused..

Hi Jeanette!
What machine?  
What are the carriage settings?

Sorry I didn't get back here sooner. I "took a deep breath" and re-read the manual. It then worked perfectly. Sure it jammed after row 130 on my poncho, but the pattern was great! I punched out the chevron pattern that you sent me and was thrilled to see it in action. The yarn was pretty crappy practice yarn so I'm going to get some better and try again. Thank you again for all your responses and encouragement. I'm slowly getting more comfortable with my machine and am really enjoying it. Your website is super helpful!
