The Silver Reed SK860 is the newest knitting machine and the first of its kind anywhere! By knitting yarns that fall in the top range for a standard gauge machine and in the lower range for a chunky machine, the SK 860 knitting machine can deliver the best of both worlds. You can knit for all seasons with the SK 860 by knitting yarns that are too heavy for a standard gauge machine and to light for a chunky machine, your imagination is the only limit. This machine knits fingering, sport and worsted weight yarns with ease. Using every other needle you can also knit light bulky weight yarn. Excellent choice for the beautiful novelty fur yarns.

- Mid gauge, 150 needles, 6.5 mm needle spacing
- Standard 60 stitches wide X 150 rows
- Maximum 150 Stitches wide X 1624 rows

Note: Not for very bulky, chunky, heavy textured 4 ply yarns that are slubby, nubby, hairy or other wise can catch on the needles, latches, and eyes. Best to test your yarn with an actual single needle to see if it slides through without resistance. Machine knitters often take a needle with them when shopping for yarn.
The Silver Reed SK 860 knitting machine is computer ready to connect to your PC, and utilizing the DesignaKnit Software for Knitters, you can download designs to the SK860 and your monitor will knit with you, row by row.
