I had to knit a little more of this thread/ punch lace because I love it 🤍

Using the same punch card and switching from tuck stitch to thread/punch lace. I really like the look of this technique 😍

Switching from slip stitch to the tuck stitch setting. Knitting in short and in long. The carriage is knitting smoothly and easily without mispatterning 😊

Still in the slip stitch setting but changing from short to long for a little more pronounced texture.

Turning off the Fair Isle setting and switching to slip stitch. Everything is still knitting properly. This a nice subtle texture. 😊

The adjustments on the pattern drums have made a giant difference! The Fair Isle is knitting much better. Now to test the other functions 🧶

Adjustments have been made to the position of the pattern drums on the carriage. Another quick cast on and set up for a Fair Isle test 🤞🏻

Part 2 - The quick test of this Singer 700 carriage that was in rough shape. The patterning issue is due to the improper positioning of one of the pattern barrels.

A quick cast on and set up for a Fair Isle test. This Singer 700 carriage was in rough shape. It’s been deep cleaned, however this test shows that there is a patterning issue.

This damaged Signer 360 carriage cover is getting a makeover! 3D printed top covers for the pattern drum section 💛

Replacing the right side rack on this Singer 360 knitting machine. I love the colourful dial buttons 😍

Time to replace the disintegrating side racks on this Singer 360 knitting machine 😳

Having a look at all of the different stitch techniques in this long test swatch. Everything is in working order with this Brother KH-940 knitting machine and now it’s safely back with its owner 😊

Using the same lace pattern number, but with a different setting on the lace carriage. The result is a delicate textured pattern, which is also quite pretty.
Pattern number 143 from Stitch World.

Testing the lace carriage with pattern number 143 from Stitch World. I think I’ll try one more test with this pattern and carriage 💡
