How to use the Big ass Brother yarn winder (you tube video)

Just a quick post for me, and for any others out there that have a big ass yarn winder like I have, but can't get it to work properly. ( There are two big antennae that attach to it, I have them in my boxes but didn't know what they were for.).

Also a HUGE big thanks to Jemajo from My brother and I, who found this for me, I am so melted that she took the time to help me, ok I am a dag, but a very thankful one :) Such an awesome lady! :)

I went to the video, which was great! (and cute too!), but it didn't show close up how to thread it, but on the little box that pops up after he video is finished, I saw this video. It is an electric one, but same set up, just with a motor; It shows you how to thread it and all!

here tis! :)

A thousand times better, Jo :D
Where would we machine knitters be without YouTube!
I don't know if I've mentioned this already, as I tend to direct every beginning machine knitter to her, but Diana Sullivan has a fantastic "Teach yourself" beginner course on machine knitting. She also uses Brother machines so all the terminology is the same - Diana Natters On. Com is her blog and on the side bar you'll find the course at http://diananatters.blogspot.com/2010/01/links-to-beginner-lessons.html

I'll be looking forward to seeing what you make and following your learning curve. It's steep and the view gets better as you climb !
