Brother knitting machines

Knitting is of some interest for lovers of warm and comfortable clothes. But today, in an age of constant lack of time, most women simply stopped doing this kind of needlework. Moreover, this activity causes boredom for many. And despite these factors, such an art as knitting has not lost its relevance. Thanks to modern knitting machines, skilled craftswomen create such masterpieces in which even famous stars are not ashamed to appear in public. In our article, we will focus on samples from the Brother brand.

To date, many knitting machines have been produced that can fulfill any whim of needlewomen. So, On Brother knitting machines, you can create sweaters, fashion accessories and such trivial little things as socks and mittens at home.

Thanks to the special design this machine can produce a wide variety of types of knitting fabric. On modern units, you can produce such elements as ruffles, beautiful belts, openwork inserts. So, knitting machines are needed for those who want to put the knitting process on stream and make money.

By the way, Brother machines are quite suitable for the price-quality category. To verify this, you can look at the reviews of those who already use such models. And at the same time study the opinions of experts.

To purchase exactly the unit that you need, you need to familiarize yourself with the characteristics of the model. Wherein consider the number of beds, type and class. So you can buy a specific device that will allow you to work efficiently and enjoy it.

Next, you need to decide what kind of car you need. Models are single-circuit and double-circuit. The latter are equipped with two needle beds. Due to the specific structure, consisting of a device and an auxiliary attachment, double-circuit products have extended functionality. On such models, you can create multi-colored patterns.

Single-line units are able to create a canvas (the thickness depends on the selected thread thickness) of a key bunch... The disadvantage of this knitting is the remaining dangling threads, which significantly spoil the look.

Each machine can have its own strictly individual principle of applying an ornament. That's why models are punched (the ornament is applied by means of a stencil), manual (the pattern is applied by hand) and electronic (the pattern is created using a special PC program).

A lot also depends on the class of the car. Models of the first class are knitted only with thick threads. The higher the class, the more refined the canvas they are able to create... Cars of 5-6 class and 7 class are considered the best.

Most beginners in the art of knitting with a machine have difficulty. Sometimes they even fail to complete the first row. The second is out of the question. It turns out that out of all the selected needles, the machine necessarily skips 2-3 loops, that is, it knits through a row. And this is despite the fact that the model is new.

With the rolling of the next row, half of the loops are already removed from the needles.

What can you advise on this problem? Read the instructions first. And it says: before starting work, you need to check the tension of the threads. If the machine is not new, then you need to look at the condition of the brushes on the carriage. If they are very worn out, they will have to be replaced. Affects poor quality knitting and poor condition of the foam rubber on the clamping bar.

Another reason for poor-quality work can be the incorrectly set density of the knitting itself. To remedy the situation, start knitting at the highest density, and then gradually reduce it.

Sometimes the machine goes through the first row flawlessly, and on the second it drops the thread. The problems are most likely due to the fact that you have chosen the wrong set of the first row. Know: there is an open set and two closed ones. Therefore, set this function correctly.

If you have any other problems, it will be enough for you to check the switches. They are located in a characteristic location for each individual model. It is possible that one of them is turned off. That is why the car knits in one direction, but not in the other.

Most people already have a poor idea of ​​what is hidden under the word "punch card". Perhaps some in the distant past could see tablets with applied number combinations, and then they simply forgot about them. Needless to say, now these are rare.

To understand what a thing with such a name is intended for, you need to know: a punch card is literally "punching paper". Now the meaning of this word has changed significantly.

A modern device knits a pattern on the canvas. For example, the technique of making a jacquard pattern is done with its help.

Using this technique, needlewomen knit planks.
