On my Artisan JBL-245 with ribber, the ribbing on 20 needles and smallest stitch dial setting is wider than the stockinette stitch at stitch dial 5. I can make the stockinette stitch looser, but it won't look very nice -- too loose. What solution do I have? I am new to this, so please explain...

Hello! I just acquired a garter carriage (KG88). Everything seems to be working ok, except that the carriage does not move - the motor goes though. The garter needle seems a little bent - is that what's wrong? I'm really disappointed because I was dying to try it out, too! Any advice welcome.

Hi all, I'm at my wits end. I have an sk840 and I want to do a double faced jacquard. So I bought a srp60n ribber to do the backface. Whenever both the main carriage and the ribber carriage knit at the same time the carriage gets almost impossible to move across. I have to admit that I am...
