Parametric LK150 Knitting Machine Transfer Tool

Model Overview & Print Notes

Transfer tool for moving stitches off and on groups of needles on a Silver Reed LK150 knitting machine and for any other machine knitters who use a 6.5mm gauge machine. Useful for cables, garter, increasing and decreasing, and a variety of other machine knitting techniques. Models included: 35 stitch 16 12 10 9 8 6 5 4 3 2 1 If you need another number of stitches and don't want to fuss with Fusion 360, let me know and I'll update the available files here. Chances are good that if you're following a pattern that tends to require transferring a certain number of stitches, other people would benefit from having that available as well. The included Fusion 360 model is parametric and can be adjusted (via the Modify > Change parameters dialog) to any number of stitches. I printed mine on a Prusa MK4 with a 0.4mm nozzle, 0.2mm layer height, 5 perimeters, and 5 top and bottom layers so it comes out essentially solid. I found that on my printer at home, a 5mm brim was necessary as the needles would curl up if I didn't include it.
