Since you implied that the knob is actually turning, I think you have a 
simple problem solved by tightening the pressure on the felt washer, as 
others have mentioned.

However, if the knob is *not* turning, and your K2 is older than serial 
no. 2696 you may have this problem:

This is very easy to fix.  I had this happen to me once and believe it 
or not, the K2 tuned itself to the frequency of SV2ASP, Monk Apollo on 
Mt. Athos, one of the rarest DX stations in the world, on one of his 
even rarer forays onto CW (yes, it really was him)!  And I worked him!

So maybe you don't want to fix it.
