To end your sensor cut the yarn feeding into the machine, but leave about 30-50 cm extra. Pull the end of the yarn through the rig and hole until it does not catch on the needles anymore as you turn.

here are two ways to finish off so that your knitting won't unravel:
* You can either turn the handle several times until all the loops are free from the hooks any the tube come off the machine. This way you have to be careful not to stress the knitting in any way that would unravel it. Hold it gently in your hands, thread the end of the yarn through a needle and pick up the loose loops. then pull the thread tight, closing the tube. You can also finish the knitting any crocheting the loops, this will maintain the stretchiness.
* Instead of releasing the whole tube from the machine in one go you can also turn it around slowly, picking up each loose loop as it slips off the needle.
