SUE, YOU ARE WONDERFUL

You can do it manually following the interactive instructions, and if your machine can be cabled to it, more directly controlled. Still trying to do the cables myself.

LEARN DAK please include instruction/tutorial how to connect & use Brother 930/940 hook up & use. It’s more complicated than silver Reed
Kathy G
Authorized sellers of DAK?
Richard B
Think I’m going to have to sell lots of knitted items on Etsy to buy a DAK license 😂
Silvana J
lol
Patricia H
Thank you Sue!
Jacqueline O
No license transfer free but costly to upgrade an old license to the new DAK..but really great software
Maurie H
no where near embroidery programs, so in that case it is very affordable
Kathy G
thanks! tiny window w/older eyes IS the problem
Joan W
Brilliant- hope I can learn some of the basic things in DAK that I am missing. Like 2 different tensions for one pattern.
Elaine R
Very excited to check out the new website.
Silvana J
I downloaded the free Version 9 Demo, and I couldn't make heads or tails out of it, so I'm glad you're going to do this. Is the Demo version just that? a demo only?
Kathy G
wondering - does DAK help run electronic machines? i.e. kh-970, kh-270
Julie L
Wang!!
Richard B
I’d love to use DAK it’s just sooooo expensive!
Jacqueline O
Wow! So great— nice to know.
Nikki P
Exciting. We need this
Silvana J
Yay!!!!! Love the idea
Julie L
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Judy P
beware lurex breaks ealily
Marjorie M
Nancy I like the idea, but think I'd want annoe shiny forthe "holes
Richard B
Ooh, nice idea, Nancy, going to try that! Thanks 😊
Nancy M
Lurex works and gives some sparkle to the fabric
Judy P
which yarn
Elaine R
Could I do thread lace center with a long stitch/half milano edging for a baby blanket?
Judy P
show the green again liked best
Silvana J
Does the thread still keep the fabric stretchy?
Maurie H
Mid gauge here I come, I think it would really show up on that machine
Ruth S
Hi Sue - What weight is the quilting thread? I've seen thread lace knit with two strands of serger thread. Beautiful.
Richard B
Thread lace worries me when washing due to different behaviours of the materials when washed
Judy P
would two weights of linen make it an ok gauge for the bulky.
Julie L
Silk embroidery thread works beautifully! Also comes on cones.
Silvana J
Sorry I pressed send too soon, I was wondering if you and/or Mat had a chance to come up with a pattern for a boat neck?
Annie L
Love it!!!!
Pauline P
Enjoying them. Thank you. Pauline
Marjorie M
I've played a little with thread lace. I've been chicken to go to sewing thread. I was concerned about it's strength. I way trying weights of crochet string.
Silvana J
I loved the thread lace, I always wondered what that was.Did you and Mat have a chance to come up with
Mary K
Can’t see you. Is brioche HK same as tuck?

Maurie H
can't see you only hear you
Julie L
Can't see you, Sue.
Richard B
Sue, can’t see your video, just the classroom on tuck
Elaine R
Ritta, I also think if you are tucking several rows, in hand knitting you would use a wrap that gets dropped.
Maurie H
punch a card half tuck and leave the other half blank it makes for a nice ripple effect
Pauline P
Can you use 2 colours in tuck, or does it have to be a single colour, please? Pauline
Nancy M
Ritta, knitting on the row below is equivalent
Marjorie M
Could you short row some extra rows of tuck to not gather the stockinette? Of course swatch to figure out how many. But is that a reasonable approach to mixing gauges?
Dot B
Is there a really easy edging to use for a baby blanket in tuck lace?
Ritta K
what is the equivalent in hand knitting to tuck?
Joan W
Can you put in 2 different tensions for one pattern in DAK?
Matthew F
North of Boston
Pauline P
Matt, what's the control room please? Pauline

In case I missed it....be sure to add extra weight and use the rubber wheels (Brother).
