Magnetic anisotropy of Lu_2Co_{17-x}Si_x single crystals grown by the Czochralski method was investigated. The homogeneity range of Si substitution for Co extends up to x = 3.4 in Lu_2Co_{17-x}Si_x solid solutions. The unit cell volume, Curie temperature, and spontaneous magnetic moment decrease monotonously with increasing Si content. Lu_2Co_{17} has the easy-plane type of magnetic anisotropy in the ground state, which changes into the easy-axis type by two spin-reorientation transitions of the second-order, the easy-plane-easy-cone at T_{SR1}~680 K and the easy-cone - easy-axis at T_{SR2}~730 K. Upon Si substitution, the observed spin-reorientations shift towards the lower temperatures for Lu_2Co_{17-x}Si_x (T_{SR1}~75 K and T_{SR2}~130 K in Lu_2Co_{16}Si) and vanish for compounds with 1
