Studio SR-302 ribbing attachment
Studio SR302 ribber is a rare attachment to find as it was released to the market in the mid 1960s. Studio SR302 ribber model is somewhat similar to the SR301. It is also visually identical to the ribber for the Singer 313-315 knitting machines I already wrote about. I also see some evidence that the…

Studio mod. 150 knitting machine
Studio mod. 150 knitting machine has 110 needles, 9 mm apart. It first appeared on the market in the early to mid-1980s. Do not confuse this machine with the plastic flat-bed knitting machine Studio LK150 (a wonderful mid-gauge knitting machine). This machine is almost identical (even in its color scheme) to Singer mod. 150 and…

Silver Reed SR-150 ribbing attachment
Silver Reed SR-150 ribber appeared on the market in the 1983 at the same time as its matching knitting machine, Silver Reed SK-150. Thus, Silver Reed SR150 ribber has 110 needles, 9 mm apart. It is very likely that Silver Reed’s SR150 model (unlike Singer’s and Studio’s ribbers with the same model numbers SR150) only…

Studio mod. 323 knitting machine
Studio mod. 323 is a punch-card knitting machine with 200 needles, 4.5 mm apart from each other. Studio mod. 323 is one of the last models in this series not to include a built-in knit leader (although Studio mod. 322 already has a built-in knit-leader… Hmmm…). Studio mod. 323 is very similar to Studio mod.…

Koyo KH-1500 knitting machine
Koyo KH-1500 is a standard-gauge knitting machine with 200 needles, 4.5 mm apart. Koyo knitting machines are so rare that it is extremely hard to find any information on them. It is very likely that these machines were released for the Japanese markets only. However, Koyo KH-1500 knitting machine is identical to the Corona CH-1500…

It is also almost identical to Brother KH210, on which I have written a detailed article already. Similar to other Corona knitting machines, Corona CN-110 does…
