Midgauge Fairisle Round Yoke Cardigan, Tier 4 and Neckband

This is the support video for the Midgauge Fairisle Round Yoke Cardigan pattern. It demonstrates knitting tier 4 and the neckband on an LK150 knitting machine. The pattern is also suitable for Brother KX350 machines, as the LK150 and KX350 carriages are nearly identical. All instructions will work for both machines.

In this video I show a short segment of how to knit Fairisle on a basic plastic bed knitting machine, such as the LK150 and KX350, how to pick up the inside of the neck edge to hem the band, and demonstrate backstitching to join the band to the inside of the garment. For an in-depth lesson on making Fairisle on these machines, please see my previous video series on Fairisle on Basic Knitting Machines.

The technique and instruction for knitting the tiers and seaming the yoke are identical to the ones in the previous video series, Bulky Fairisle Yoke Pullover, except for the way we make Fairisle pattern on an LK150 or KX350 knitting machine, so I have not repeated those instructions. Please go to the previous series for detailed demonstrations.

This pattern is free on my Facebook group, and is what we are using for a KAL, that is currently in progress as of October 22, 2020. The pattern will continue to be available after the KAL ends.

We have several other free patterns for round yoke pullovers and cardigans, and support material on Facebook group, Machine Knitting Round Yokes. We’d love to have you join. This is a very active and friendly group. You must agree to follow the group rules, which are no selling or self-promotion, and post only about round yoke sweaters (no political, religious, race/ethnic issues, etc.)

If this is something you find interesting, the direct link to the group is   / 431730810551554   Hope to see you there.
The pattern will also be available free on my website by October 30, 2020, after the KAL ends. All discussion about it is in the Facebook group.

I hope you find this video helpful.
