Color changer

Hi Sandra
I’ve just checked on www.metropolitanmachineknitting.co.uk and from the information given the YC5 is for double bed only whereas the YC6 is for either single or double bed. Metropolitan are advertising a secondhand YC5 for £10. Hope this helps
Regards Sue.

Hi Sandra
I have the same model machine and ribber as you and I have a YC6 colour changer as it gives me the option to use the colour changer for Fair Isle or double Jacqard. Hope this is of some help to you.
Best wishes Joy.

Hi Sandra
I have had the YC6 for years which I use with the Knitmaster 360. It’s very versatile because you can use it for double bed Jacquard work and for single bed Fair Isle. Hope this is a help to you.

Denys Brunton Magicolour

I’m looking for some Denys Brunton Magicolour 4-ply or something simliar so I can make a jacket using one of the patterns I’ve got. Can anyone advise on what wool is similar or where I can buy it?
Yours hopefully, Sandra

I’d love to know too. Of all the discontinued yarns I think it’s the one I miss most.

I have used one strand each of three different colours together as one which knitted up as a 4 ply they were 2/28 each.My fairisle pattern was on a black background and the three colours were red emerald and royal you need bright colours to contrast with one another its a good way to use up leftovers of fine yarn try it
