Interactive Knitting
The Goal:
Interactive Knitting with the LK150
With the LK150, you can take advantage of Interactive Knitting by connecting the ScreenLink USB Cable and magnet. This allows DesignaKnit to follow the carriage movement and update your instructions automatically. Even without a cable, you can use your mouse or keyboard to simulate row progression and preview your shaping instructions.
This section will help you get set up, understand the layout, and make the most of this powerful feature—even when knitting manually.

All of the buttons and sections in Interactive Knitting can be a bit overwhelming. But keep in mind the purpose of Interactive Knitting is to visually help you knit.
It displays your garment shape and/or stitch pattern.
And when connected to your machine, it mimics the action of your carriage.
