Woo Hoo! I am working on a Brother CompuKnit III programmable knitting machine. With many a grand idea about connecting to a raspberry pi etc, I have been trying to learn the basics, human style first.
I can hand knit. Usually. It’s been a while. I can crochet for about 15 minutes before carpal tunnel flares up.
Today I finally “mastered” the Tuck stitch instructions on the Brother. By repetition I have also learned to cast on and bind off pretty well now. I can now make hundreds of wash cloths…
What the tuck? 
Success!
