After pressing off fabric, a problem arises where stitches are pressed off and
therefore further knitting is not possible. To be able to continue, we
recommend calling up the "Picking-up after pressing-off" function. It allows you
to begin knitting even without fabric.
Normally, each knitting program in
cludes the
"Picking-up after pressing-off"
function. With older knitting programs, this function is found from line 950 on;
with the pattern workstation M1, it is activated via "#90".
The machine detects which patter
n wor
kstation was used to generate the
pattern. A knitting program of M1 contains the ID "<M1>" on line 1. Likewise,
program point "P.aft. press-off" in the "Machine start" window is adapted
automatically.
