The Lk-150 is a great knitting machine for beginners: it's still being manufactured so it's easy to find parts and tools, it works with category 2 and category 3 yarns, and it's easy to learn on.

The LK150 is used by a number of knitwear designers such as Susan Guagliumi who has written a number of books about hand manipulated stitches and has a DVD about the LK 150 as well as a KZfaq channel. The Machine Knitting Monthly always has patterns for LK 150.

The yellow ruler is for measuring swatches. Silver Reed made 3 rulers one for each gauge, the other two are blue & green. They're supposed to be faster/more accurate way of determining gauge than using a plain ruler, YMMV.

I am a hand knitter and thought "how hard can it be to machine knit?". I got a brother standard gauge to learn on and there was quite a learning curve. I was always wanting yarn and could only find it on line. I do love what it can do with the card reader and finger weight yarn. But sometimes you just want to go to the store and grab some yarn for a quick project so I bought the LK150 second hand. All the parts were there in plastic bags. The only thing I had to do was replace the sponge bar that disintegrated. So far I have done some holiday crafts, pumpkins and gnomes.

Thank you for keeping this skill alive! I used Brother knitting machine about 35 years ago. Was a lot of fun. Then study, work, career, all the boring stuff LOL All those years I was dreaming of having knitting machine again. Just bought Silver Reed SK 840. It's standard gauge machine. It's so wonderful to spend my days learning. Love your videos.

@NancyPollyCy 8 ай бұрын

About 60 years ago, my father bought my mother an incredibly expensive knitting machine - probably one of the first made - but the store he bought it from went bankrupt immediately afterward so my mother was never able to take the class required to use it. The poor thing sat around for years and was finally thrown away. I've always been intrigued by the idea, though, and have wondered if one would be fun to have. I'm left handed, and tend to get things turned around when I try to knit by hand! Thank you so much for this and other tutorials. It gives me confidence, and I think I'll start saving up for one.

Certainly not a dying hobby as people realise they joy of machine knitting and all the knitting groups on Facebook welcome dozens of members daily. There are so many knitters around the world and the second hand market for machines and accessories is booming. I have enjoyed machine knitting since about 1982 and as now retired I can spend more time enjoying making my own stuff that actually fits knowing it hasn’t come from a sweat factory 🙂

Thank you for doing a beginner level series!! I purchased a vintage Singer about 6 years ago and it is still in the box. I only paid $50 for it and it has a lot of the punched patterns, but I have no idea how to do any of that. I have been hand knitting for over 30 years and recently started with circular knitting machines. It would be nice to attempt to try my Singer out, but after watching a couple of other videos on used machines, I’m sure it will need some new parts and cleaning. You are very sweet and your technical knowledge puts most of us older folks to shame. But, we are never too old to learn new things LOL!

I am so glad to see you working on an LK150. I didn't know that you recommended it as beginner machine, but I just bought one for that very reason! So far I have made a few swatches and one hat that turned out a bit too big (self drafted the pattern after watching a few KZfaq videos...) The issue was not that the gauge was off, but that I seriously overestimated the size I needed (and also made a MAJOR miscalculation on the length but that was all on me! And easy enough to fix by ripping out the extraneous rows!) I am a long time handknitter so I'm hoping I can put my pattern writing skills to use on the LK150. I do think the best way to learn is to just try something! Looking forward to seeing what you do with this machine!

I’m not a beginner, I owned a SK280 & ribber but had to sell it a few years ago 😢 I’d love to buy a new one but they are more than double the price of a new LK150, even second hand ones 😮 This looks decent enough to create something wearable and will be cheaper to use as coned 4 ply yarn is pretty expensive. Reminds me of the Bond Classic I had when I was younger. I need to learn the hand manipulation techniques.

I've been a crocheter for decades, but I received an Addi knitting machine as a gift and enjoy using it. Now I want to make different types of knitted garments, but not using electricity. So, I recently began looking into what kind of knitting machines are out there. I learned about the Silver Reed models, but I noticed these contemporary machines are made of mostly plastic and don't seem as strong as the earlier models made of metal. Thank you for your tutorial. I hope to find a vintage Brother model, like a kh-821 or kh-587, that has been well cared for, with all its parts and the carrying case. 😂

Same here, though once you have made a gauge swatch you will find that many hand knit patterns will work. Ann Budd's Handy Book of Knitting patterns and Melissa Leapman's 6, 000 Pullover Possibilities give you some basic knitwear patterns based on gauge and Shirley Paden's wonderful Knitwear Design Workshop book is good for if you want to get into designing more complex shapes based on your own measurements - all of these books work for both machine and hand knitting, though they were written mainly with hand knitting in mind. I recently made the stocking stitch parts of Kate Davies Puffin sweater on my LK 150, which was my first sweater project on it and it worked well . Mary Ann Ogre's The Handbook for Manual Machine Knitters was very helpful to me when I was learning to use my LK150 and I still refer to it often when using my machine. Amazon has most of these books.

the ruler is for guage. 60 on one side and 40 on the other. after blocking your swatch measure the width of the swatch with the side for your sts to get the guage. lots of sts and small size = higher count and few sts with wide fabric = lower count.

@katherinenitsche53 4 ай бұрын

the ruler is a swatch measure. 60 sts on one side and 40 sts on the other. depending on the swatch sts use the appropiate side.the wider the swatch the fewer the sts per inch. a narrow 60 sts will have lots of sts per inch a wide 60 sts will have fewer st per inch. the other numbers give different gauge stitches.

Im brand new to the concept of machine knitting, my eyes were opened from another youtuber! Of course I wanted to start out with a beast but then it'll probably end up being a beast to get started aswell. I had looked on amazon and saw thus machine and the word "plastic" turned me off so I started looking for only vintage. Like I said, it would probably be a beast to get started with vintage so I mught actually start with this. Its from Amazon so it can be returned if I dont like it. Thanks for showing us this.

if you find knittax/knitking (AM3 or anything similar) go for that. Silver reed is crap compared to what used to be for sale 50yrs ago. LK150 is plastic but quite good, but the concept how it works and the pulling comb is just bad. Much better to have something with sinkers instead of pulling comb but if it has to be only comb, than at least it should have normal comb, these combs that come with LK150 are pure scam, being only for every second space..

Well its because they were on facebook market place for small sums such as $50 for a pile of books, bags of yarn on cones, punch cards etc. I am an artist as well and I was interested in the early models and the analogue computing nature if some of the machines. Intuitively I just started picking them up just to give them a home. Some of these machines had never been opened up. Intimidating gifts?. Others need a good servicing after years of use.

This machine does not have a punch card attachment available. Needle selection is hand manipulated. There is a tool called the needle beedle that may make some patterns faster to select.
