| Morag W Thank you for being there for us |
| Mary K LEARN DAK please include instruction/tutorial how to connect & use Brother 930/940 hook up & use. Itâs more complicated than silver Reed |
| Kathy G Authorized sellers of DAK? |
| Richard B Think Iâm going to have to sell lots of knitted items on Etsy to buy a DAK license ð |
| 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 Iâd love to use DAK itâs just sooooo expensive! |
| Jacqueline O Wow! So greatâ 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 ð |
| 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 Canât see you. Is brioche HK same as tuck? |
| Jacqueline O Excellent video thank you |
| Marie-Jo C Like Julie and Maurie !! I can't see you, Sue |
| Nikki P Great. Iâve been wondering about thread lace |
| Sue J J sorry I get so busy talking, I forget to pay attention |
| Morag W I love thread lace used to do it years ago |
| Maurie H can't see you only hear you |
| Julie L Can't see you, Sue. |
| Richard B Sue, canât 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 |
| Julie L In case I missed it....be sure to add extra weight and use the rubber wheels (Brother). |
