    Oh Whitney, I am so sorry that you have not been making more tutorials. Your clear "viewing"and vocal instructions are amazing! This has been a lifesaver for me. I will definitely be watching it over and over until I get it down pat. Thank you for taking your time and effort to do this for us.

    I'm brand new to knitting machines (I don't have an Addi... I have a Sentro). In fact, I just got my machine today. So far, I've made 2 hats and a scarf, all from "tubes". I've crocheted for 40+ years and I've been using a knitting loom for about a month so I was kind of able to fix dropped stitches and other "weird" stitches, but this video really helped me identify the potential problems BEFORE they happened. Thank you so much!

    Wow u have a remarkable comprehension of the mechanics of how this works. I have a hard time with visualizing such things but really want to understand the needles and going backward and forward etc. You helped me so much. I have a knock off version right now I just want to make pieces of knit to play around with dyes, and I will re-knit it by hand. I have found I have to be SUPER gentle with worsted, the first machine I had lasted an hour and the gears got stripped. Then I read that some folks on amazon have similar problems with Addi also, but you really have it down. Thanx again, I shall look forward to more videos from you.

    @susanryan9142 7 лет назад +3

    Thank you for this thorough demonstration!!! . Especially helpful that you knew the importance of zooming in on the needles you were talking about and working on. I've only been knitting on my Addi for a month but would have saved myself SOOO much frustration if I had come across this video back then. You need to convince Skacel / Addi to include it or a form of it with the sell of every loom.
