Machine knitting pattern definitions - main bed techniques

Here I'm defining different machine knitting patterns/techniques. This will be a work in progress! Slip stitch The stitch is skipped and not knitted, leaving a bar of yarn behind it on the purl side. Mosaic/Maze knitting Two-colour slip stitch which forms a maze or mosaic pattern on the right side. Tuck stitch On the machine, the stitch has a loop of yarn placed in the hook, but the original stitch is not knitted off. To replicate this by hand you'd bring the yarn forward, slip a st, then knit a stitch, creating an extra stitch Fair-isle or knit-in Two-colour work, where the colour not is use is slipped behind the knitted stitches, resulting in "floats" of yarn on the wrong side of the work. Simple lace Lace of holes made by transferring single stitches in one direction or another Fashion lace Lace where stitches are transferred over several passes - almost a cable effect, but with lace holes Punch lace Punch lace Lace made by running an invisible thread along with the main yarn. In certain areas, only the invisible yarn is knitted. Tuck lace Lace created with a tuck card, where certain needles are out of work, and the tucks fall either side.

Knitweave A contrasting yarn is woven into the wrong side of the knitting - can be done to a pattern Garter stitch Knitting made with a garter carriage, that may have both knit and purl in one row If you've got any more definitions to add, please comment and I'll update. I'm only really a beginner at this so don't claim to have them all down!
