Why no sets in crafting stations

So I get some master crafting writs, determine on a regular crafting station that I have all the ingredients, and go find the special ones. I checked two crafting stations, one in the Gold Coast and the other in the Imperial City. The first one was tricky to get to and the Imperial City frustratingly difficult. I've done it few times before, figured how to get to Tamriel, enter the city and find the crafting station. Always dangerous and deadly. Getting out is definitely a WTF experience. But I did it.

This time it was different. The armor sets showed as locked and red, and claimed I lacked knowledge I did have the enough traits.So I've checking other crafting stations and except for those two, the ones I've checked show no armor sets.

Did I miss something? I've checked online and here but haven't come up with anything.

    I have seen this before, and it sorts itself by interacting with another crafting station somewhere or a character relog.

    BTW, for those pesky IC stations your guild might have attuned stations in their hall for you to use. If you don't have a guild that does that, and you play on PC/NA, send me an email in the game and I can get you in one that does. Same name as here, @Nestor

    Thank you for your prompt reply. I've experienced this on more than one day (not sure how many) so reloading is not going to work. I may take advantage of your offer, though.

    Try hitting another crafting station, of any kind, and make something, something simple, an iron dagger is all for this or a jute glove etc. Does not have to be a set item or a set station.

    @lauribleu_ESO : what @Nestor has suggested.

    Also, it isn't enough when a character knows the number of traits required to use a workstation to craft a Set piece. The character must know how to craft the gear with the trait that is required by the Writ, too. :wink:

    Again, thank-you. Founder here so I've been around the block, so to speak. I know about the motifs and collect the ones I need for individual Master Crafting Writs if I don't already have it. I am a master at all six crafts with my main character.

    Regarding just making stuff. Since I collect and do crafting writs twice a session when I am playing (when I sign on and again at 11:00/10:00), I make plenty of plain stuff. That's how I get Master Crafting Writs. I used the awards from them to outfit my player house with crafting station, though just the basic ones. I primarily use those stations to craft furnishings but have used them to complete crafting writs.
