Turning off the thread lace settings and taking a look at the right side of the fabric. It’s a pretty pattern 😊

Switching back to plain knitting. When turning off the power button, the little whistle sound is so sad!

Continuation of this Fair Isle video. I would normally stop knitting after the 1st blank row to cut & switch colours, but since this is only a test with 1 contrasting colour, I didn’t bother & just cut the long floats. I do like how this turned out with just 2 colours😊

This Fair isle pattern is made for switching colours, but I wanted to do this test with just two colours. I’ll post the rest of this video soon!

All of the parts are moving freely and easily now on this Brother KH-940 carriage after deep cleaning. Ready for test knitting!

Preparing to deep clean this Brother KH-940 carriage. This old oil is similar to glue now after all these years!

This was one of the most frustrating packages to open 😆Usually, I receive new sponge bars in PVC pipes but this had wood, foam, plastic wrap, clear and opaque tape. I had to be careful of splinters and to not cut the fabric of the sponge bar.

Removing and saving all the needles for a proper cleaning as most all of them can be salvaged. What a dirty job though 😅

Rust and sponge residue on the needles from the old disintegrating sponge bar that was soaked in oil and left inside the knitting machine for many years 😑
