Ribber Jamming
Oh Great! Now my ribber is jamming. It worked just the other day
when we used it on a scarf. Now, it is jamming on the second needle as it makes the return pass going Right to Left. Any ideas why this would happen? Ideas how to fix it? Joy

How would I know if my sponge bar needs replacing? It still knits
regular just fine. Is this something my technically dabbling hubby can do with some direction? Where do I get a new one. How much do they cost...etc? Or better yet...do they still make them? And, do they die from old age....because I havn't even used mine in 10 years? Joy On Sat, 18 Dec 2004 07:37:10 +0000, David Toft wrote: In article , Joy Hardie writes Oh Great!

Hi David,
Just wanted to let you know it WAS the sponge bar. I replaced it yesterday. I had NEVER done that. I owned the machine for 8 years- rarely used it so didn't know it needed replacing. Anyway, thanks for the "heads-up" on that one....it got my project back on it's feet!!!! Joy Oh Great! Now my ribber is jamming. It worked just the other day when we used it on a scarf.
