LK-150 Knitting Machine

This is a perfect machine for hand knitters who wish to try machine knitting.  Generally, set the tension dial to the suggested hand-knitting needle size and obtain the same gauge.  For a DK-weight yarn that asks for a needle #6 to get about 5-5½ sts/inch, set the tension dial to 6, the yarn mast to 0 and you should get about 5-5½ sts/inch.  Then, just follow the hand-knit directions.

INTARSIA CARRIAGE Intarsia knitting gives you the option to create large picture designs with no float on the back of the fabric. With intarsia, your color choices are limitless. You may use as many colors in a row as you choose by laying the yarns across the needles you want to knit in that color. Picture knitting is fun and very creative. Give your creative side a new dimension by adding the intarsia carriage to your knitting system.
