Hello everyone,
I machine knit in the Winter months and sew in the Summer.
I have recently acquired a Knit contour Radar (a KR-7) for my knitting machines. You insert in the KR-7 a garment pattern scaled down to 50%, and enter your knitting gauge. No further calculations are required. You just knit your garment using the Knit Radar as your guide.
I love DS for the fact that you can print a pattern reduced at 50%. DS is the ideal tool for perfectly designing knitted clothing when you use it along with the Knit Contour Radar.

Very cool......I had a knitting machine back in the 70's when they were sort of neolithic.would be fun to check out the modern varieties.

What kind of machine did you have? Do you still have it?

I had a Princess that I picked up in Tokyo back in 1972 .. couldnt find the manual to order any replacement parts etc, useless as the company has been bought up by another, and a friend gave me another one of slightly newer vintage that I have still.
