Sale price $7.99 Regular price $59.95

Knitting Machine Ribber Cast On Comb. Ribber cast on combs are used in conjunction with your knitting machine and ribber combination to weight your knitted material so that stitch size stays equal and so that your stitches stay clear of the machine mechanism. A Ribber Cast On Comb is hung between and under the knitting machine main bed and the ribber bed using a fine wire which is threaded thru the knitted material and the holes on one edge of the comb. We have ribber combs for both 4.5mm and 9.0mm machines. Purchase of any size Ribber Cast On Comb includes the cast on comb wire as part of the purchase.

About our short combs: If you are tired of juggling a long cast on comb when all you really need is a short length? Well this is the answer. Short ribber cast on combs are much easier to balance while working virtually blind under your machine. We have short ribber combs which are very handy for smaller projects. The ones that that came with your ribber are long, anywhere from 35" to 41" long but our short combs are 7" & 3" long.

Our short cast on combs (3" & 7" combs) are great for making cuffs, necklines, sleeves, socks, collars and edgings. Fantastic when used for making the following items:

  • For making bottoms and tops - short combs eliminate imbalance problems associated with long combs.
  • For bottoms of sleeves, socks or anywhere ribbing is used.
  • For one sided ribbing such as on cardigan sweater buttonhole area and on double jacquard items. .
  • For baby items or any small items needing ribbing.

All of our ribber cast on combs include a proper length wire with the comb. Wires can be ordered separately.
