Design-A-Knit

The only computer aided knitwear designing software that will interface with your knitting machine. Design-a-Knit lets you design garment shapes, stitch patterns, and integrate the two. With DesignaKnit, you can see what your sweater will look like before you knit it. After you download the design to your knittng machine, the software tracks your carriage as it moves across the needle bed so you can see exactly where you are as your knitting progresses.

Silver Link Box

Design A Knit communicates with your knitting machine via cables from your computer to your knitting machine. You create your own pattern designs on the computer and then download them to the Silver Link box. The Silver Link box then interacts with the electronic carriage to knit your design. The Silver Link box also enables DAK's very useful interactive knitting giving tone or voice notifications for color changes, shaping instructions and more. Requires Silver Reed "curly cord" sold separately. Silver Link box and USB cables: $399.00
