The SK830 and SK840 models are part of the Silver Reed Modular Electronic Knitting System. When combined with Designaknit 8 software, they offer almost unlimited scope for unique fabric creation with high production speed. The SK830 features 250 needles at 3.6mm pitch so will knit fine fabric using up to 4-ply yarn. The SK840 uses 200 needles and a standard 4.5mm pitch and will knit up to a light double-knit yarn. A Silverlink 5 device will be needed to transfer files from the PC.
