Talk:Machine Knitting/Edges

I'm new to machine knitting so I don't have a good grasp on the terminology.

Cast on edges without ribbing

What do you mean by "twist ... around the needles? Do you mean "wrap"? Which direction is the wrap? Does it matter if you're proceeding left to right or right to left?

Cast on with weaving brushes

Saying things like "Set the weaving pattern levers" isn't particularly helpful to us newbies. Maybe a link to a glossary or tutorial page explaining this would be useful. Or some examples for representative machines explaining/showing which buttons/levers are the "weaving Pattern Levers".

Casting on with a thread through the open loops

What is the "down" position of a needle? Are you talking about flat bed knitting machines like the Brother KH-260?
