how small or how big knit can make this machine? What size needles holding this knitting board?

Last question first. The "needles" are actually nails. I use a crochet hook to loop yarn over. If you use a thin yarn the fabric will be loose and stretchy and wider because of the stretch, up to 36 inches. A thick yarn will make a thick tight fabric around 30 inches in width. To knit the nails are wrapped with yarn then wrapped again. Bottom thread is pulled up over the the top thread. If you have ever "spool knit" using a spool with four nails and pulling the rope through the hole of the needle this will be a breeze because it is exactly the same thing on a large scale. You can make this as small as the four nails like on a spool and just use four nails on the knitting board or as wide as the board. Just depends on how many nails you use. You can make the fabric as long or as short as you want just keep knitting for the length. It is very easy. The board makes a double knit fabric. I hope this has helped you a bit. If you have any other questions I'll be happy to try and answer them. Ginny

I used both the weird needles that it comes with to string them on thread, and the beading wire itself alone. Both work beautifully for size 11 beads. The more I use this spinner the more I love it!

You could. If you intend on making a double-knit placement, it might be helpful to get one of those KK Loom clips? Coasters, you might want a smaller loom with the pegs closer together so you can get a smaller knit/weave.

Hi, Susanna! It depends on which sewing table you own...Arrow makes 3 different inserts...which table do you have?

It seems to be standard size vintage sewing machine with a bayonette type sockets. The newer ones have a screw on bulb. I used a refrigerator bulp on those. I hope that helps you. Happiness!

What fun to be using an antique machine! I'm sure it's challenging, but worth the effort! In answer to your question, Organ sewing machine needles that I purchased are 1 1/2" long. The top 3/4" of the needle (which fits into the needle bar) is flat on one side, but the rest is rounded. I hope that this answers your question. Good luck!

I use the same needles for all my machines. It is an embroidery needle 75/11. I get mine online from Home Sew.com. I buy them in bulk. Hopefully this helps

The needle for this is big, but it should work just fine. I used the needle to sew a strap back onto hockey pads. Very simple to use and the stitch has lasted over 6 months.

It handles thick yarn great! The most I've put on is a 7 oz skein of regular yarn. Sometimes I get the whole thing on, sometimes I split it into two balls. I love this machine!

I got it for my daughter and it's quite large but I used a huge safety pin and pinned it to the smallest size I could.The width really helps get more control for transfers and such. It could probably be stitched smaller too. I justdon't have a working sewing machine at the moment.

This yarn doesn't say what ply it is. .but i can tell you it's super bulky #6 and calls for a 16mm or Q crochet hook and 15mm knitting needles. hope that helps a little. ..

This machine is only set up for thread. Yarn would get bogged down in the bobbin case. You should look at commercial sewing machines to use with yarn. :)

It's about a 16 gauge needle. There are differences among manufacturers, so hopefully they'll respond with an accurate answer. You can find needle gauge charts on the internet.
