I need help with my Knitmaster 560 lace knitter
Hi
I need help with my Knitmaster 560 lace knitter. I’ve not used this for many years and have set it all up ready to go, but it jams at the beginning of the first row of pattern. Suggestions please or the contact details for a Hertfordshire knitting club.
Many thanks
Maggie
Your Responses
I used to own a 580 and now have the 840. To be honest I always found the lace carriage very heavy on both these knitting machines. However, have you oiled the carriage? Have you checked that all the needles are 'lace' needles and not some ring-ins from an earlier knitting machine? Have you tried starting from the other side?
Sorry I can't be more constructive but the best of luck!
