Cindy, I saved a post from Jack Fuller last year with recommendations on Arial-Dak. When I come across stuff like that on the user group I print it out along with the alphabet font sheet from DS and keep it in a small binder. I have referred to those tips over and over, lifesavers for me!!!! Here is what Jack recommended for pique knit: 65/9 needle, sharp or BP 60 wt thread (this makes all the difference!!!) Heavy cutaway backing, Solvy topping Increase column width to 150-180 minimum ht at .18-.20 I use this font alot for small stuff with these recommendations and it works great for me. The one thing you should remember is that this font doesn't have tie-in or off so you may need to adust that in your lettering menu. Good luck!
