Could be that the little brush wheels under the carriage are jammed with fluff/yarn. Take them out, clear anything that is underneath them, then put a drop of oil on the black plastic and replace. Also, check that the carriage has not been bent out of shape and is rubbing against the pegs on the machine. It is possible to pull it back into shape, but do this very carefully.
