- Make the desired changes in the Color Arrangement:
- In the processing area:
- Add additional rows for the weft yarn and draw in the yarn color used in pattern section 1 with the desired needle actions.
- Insert additional rows for the pattern related transferring and draw-in
Transferencia hacia atrás. - Modifications in Control Columns:
- Control column Dirección del carro
- Control column Sistema
- Control column Prensador W
- Control column Corrección de prensador
: If necessary, enter index values in order to make any necessary corrections of the presser foot on the machine afterwards. - Control column Offset de vanisado (YPI)

Function of Weft Yarn Border Processing:
For patterns with the machine with presser feet and selective weft yarn, the border of the area for the weft yarn (color field) must be corrected. The border processing (correction) ensures to catch and keep deep the weft yarn by the presser foot in the reversal of the weft yarn carrier. The border processing will be done within the whole pattern.
:
- The border processing depends on the carriage direction.
- No border processing will be entered for weft yarn insertion over the complete pattern width.
Required for Weft Yarn Border Processing:
- The yarn carrier is defined by the
symbol as a weft yarn carrier. - The rows for the weft inlay must have the Weft yarn / Transferring with Float needle action.
- The presser foot must be activated in this row of weft inlay.
- 12
- Make the settings for knitting-in and out the yarn carriers in the
Guiahilos tool window:
- Pattern-16 with knitting-in and out of basic patterns without structure (SJ)
-
Pattern-16A with knitting-in and out of basic patterns with structure (SJ)
: Duplicate and modify existing Pattern-16 accordingly.
Knitting-in and out a weft yarn carriers of patterns without structure (SJ):
Front stitch (SJ) only is knitted in the basic pattern next to the area with the selective weft yarn. With it, the weft yarn carrier can be knit out or in easily by the Hilo flotante needle action.
: A weft yarn is knitted-in out out with the Hilo flotante needle action, as a weft yarn usually has a different yarn thickness.
- The basic pattern without structure (SJ) but with the area for selective weft yarn is drawn and the color arrangement is created.

Result after technical processing:

Knitting-in and out a weft yarn carriers of patterns with structure:
A structure (e.g. border) is knitted in the basic pattern next to the area with the selective weft yarn. With it, knitting in or out the weft yarn carrier may make problems. You can fix the problem by locking the weft yarn at the border when knitting in or out.
- Pattern-16 is duplicated.
- The Color Arrangement is created.
- 3
- Draw the 1x1 border at left and right.
- 4
- Modify the pattern rows of knitting-in and knitting-out:
- Yarn color #4 (green) from the pattern border up to the start of the area with selective weft yarn (rear weft yarn)
- Yarn color #2 (black) on the desired quantity of needles (front weft yarn) at the fabric selvedge.
