This photo show the carriage of the LK150
Light weight, compact, easy to store, easy to use, plastic bed machine for which there is no ribber (you can either
knit the ribs by hand, or hand tool them on the machine). Has 150 needles and ideally knits yarns about the weight
of Patons Astra which is 22 sts to 10cm on 4 mm hand knitting needles (Light 3) double knitting yarn. By use of
the tension dial you can knit yarns that are slightly thinner or thicker than this. It knits stocking stitch but
with hand manipulation you can knit tuck, slip and fairisle.
Here is a photo of the needle bed, notice the needle butts are colour coded in sets of 10. Also
you can see the row counter at the back of the bed and the mast to the left.
