With your guidance, videos and replacing 3 needles I am up and knitting. Only issue I have is the proper table. So, I have searched hi and low for a "proper" knitting stand and finally found one on line at All Brands, should be here in a day or two. When it arrives the ribber will finally be anchored correctly. Also, awaiting your book and DVD I purchased from you.<br /><br />Question: Why do I never see tension settings for the yarn feeder? Any rule of thumb you can offer?<br /><br />Thanks a MILLION and please don't stop!Tom In Las Vegasnoreply@blogger.com
