How to Machine Knit a Tuck stitch on LK150 (hand-manipulated)
Here is a basic how-to of the Tuck stitch knitting on the LK150 knitting machine. If you have a different machine, the same principle applies. Just find out the button or dial that does not knit "D" position back to "B" position. Check your instruction manual for the right dial/button. For LK150, there is no punch card or computer-aided patterning, so I just select needle by hand. For punch card machine or computerized machine, you can design your pattern or select pre-made pattern for Tuck stitches. Playlist from

  Silver Reed's 4.5mm standard gauge knitting machine has always been a favorite for fingering, sport and fine novelty yarns. The SK 280 is a machine that will proudly stand by your side to help you create some of the most beautiful garments in your wardrobe. With a 24 stitch punch card pattern center you can create beautiful tuck, weaving, slip, and fair isle stitch patterns.

• Converts your 200 needle machine into a 400 needle double bed machine.
  
• Will add a whole new dimension to your knitting that can produce an incredible variety of rib stitches, including Pile Knitting, Double Face (float free lining), Plating Rib, 1x1 rib, 2x2, big ribs, cable ribs, tubular/circular (seamless stockings or pillows), Shaker Stitch, English Rib, Tuck Rib, and more.
  
  This ribber creates the purl stitches in knitting. The main bed knits, while the ribber purls.
  
  When the two beds are combined, you can also make tubes. Knitting in the round, first the main bed knits, then the ribber, then again the main bed, round and round. This can be used for making socks, stocking caps without seams, pillows without seams, tube tops, skirts, and other items knit in the round.
  
  The ribber also knits purl stitches for defining cables, making ribs, and other knit purl designs.
  
  Standard gauge ribber suitable for Silver Reed & Knitmaster standard gauge knitting machines.
  
  A ribber to your machine for a real professional finish. Knit the full range of needle arrangements - 1 x 1, 2 x 1, 2 x 2, 3 x 3, etc., with the proper cast-on edge featured on most expensive knitwear.
  
  But that's only the beginning of the ribber story. Increase your stitch pattern potential by choosing from full or half fisherman's rib, herringbone swing, drive lace, pin tuck, tuck rib and slip rib to knit fashionable surface texture. Add extra colors and knit those floats in with double Jacquard.
  
  This ribbing attachment will add a whole new dimension to your knitting. It will convert your machine into a 400 needle double bed knitter that can perform a variety of rib stitches, including Double Face and Plating Rib.
  
  The same ribbers fit both punchcard and electronic machines, so if you are upgrading to an electronic machine you don't need to add a new ribber.
  
  When attached to the main bed, the ribbing attachment will add another dimension to your knitting as it can perform a variety of rib stitches; multi-color rib, english rib, tuck rib, tubular knitting, drive lace and much more.

• Suitable for most standard and fine gauge Silver/Reed knitting machines.

• For double bed use, simply lift the trip lever on the ribber arm and enjoy a variety of colorful rib stitches and jacquards.
  
• The yarn mast has separate guides for the four yarns and increased tension capabilities.
