addiExpress King Size Knitting Machine, 46 Needles Circle Knit Loom Machine with Row Counter and Hand Crank, Black, 17.7 Inch

This loom is absolutely phenomenal. Its steps above any other loom I have used. The hats I have been able to make with such ease are wonderful! The speed and functionality is great. It doesn't drop stitches like the others I have had. I love it I love it I LOVE IT. It was absolutely worth the extra money to upgrade.

exceeded my expectations! i previously got a cheap knitting machine from michaels, but ended up returning it because of the lack of quality. this one is its replacement, and it is AMAZING. i got the king size one and it is definitely worth the price. it works very well, doesnt skip any stitches, counts your rows for you, and is quick and easy to use. this is a great brand.

I purchased both the 22 and 46 needle addi knitting machines. I've had them for several months and I love them both.The machines are easy to use, and there are lots of YouTube videos that helped me to get to know my machines. I've made scarf sets, sweaters, blankets, and stuffed animals using my addis.The addi does well with 1-4 weight yarn. I have also used a 5 weight yarn, but it is tough on my Addis, and I have ended up with dropped stitches, the handle constantly skips and doesn't rotate to the next needle, so I've had to push it along, and it breaks needles. It is doable with a 5 weight, but it takes a lot of extra work and patience.I'm a knitter and crocheter, but it's difficult for me to do either because of arthritis. The addi machines have given me back the joy of both.I also have 22 and 48 needle Sentros, which are good. But, I am partial to, and would recommend the addi. I feel these machines are built tough and built to last.

Forget the other brands spend your money on this machine. I am so happy I found this addi for this price. It works well makes a perfect cowl or scarf in just a short time.

This machine is a bit pricey but oh it’s so good. I’ve tried the other pink machine and will never go back after using this one. This one is so smooth and easy to use. I’ve had for two years now and no issues. Such a great investment would recommend this to anyone interested in knitting

I was beyond disappointed in this machine.My first attempt appeared to be trouble free.I knitted half a skein (about 100 yards) of Plymouth Encore Colorspun 75% Acrylic 25% Wool.I was thrilled. It was fast and made a great tube.That was the end of my thrill.I attached some good old 4ply worsted 100% Wool (same weight ) from Red Heart and the problems began. Bad part is I did not see it until I was finished knitting the other 100 yards. When I took my piece off the machine there were so many dropped stitches all over the fabric my whole hat was ruined.My objective was patterned yarn on one side of the hat and the solid on the inside making the hat reversible.I am a long time knitter so my yarn was not a loss I simply unraveled it as I knit the hat by hand.I purchased the machine primarily to knit tubes of wool for dying sock blanks. I suppose I could do it with the dropped stitches anyway but since these blanks would be for sale I just could not bring myself to sell dyed blanks that were not perfectly knitted.The machine itself is totally plastic as far as I could see. It is noisy to run and sounds like an old time rickety lawnmower. I could tolerate that if it produced good fabric. Alas It did not.It only does stockinette so there is virtually no pattern to your project.I do not fault the machine for that because I knew that going in.The stitches dropped were too numerous and so spread out on the fabric ... the only remedy was rip it out and start over.I had no counter issues like others had. Nor did I have any yarn jams. That being said I was not going very fast because I was interested to see if the stitches were being dropped. Even at that I did not catch it until it had already happened too many times to correct.I had already read about the static and researched for product to remedy that situation. In the end some of that product is corrosive to plastic and I did not want to do that in case I had to return the machine.I was in this machine twice ... first time for the patterned yarn and the second for the white wool ... when I removed the hat and found all of the dropped stitches on the solid white wool section I decided the machine was going back.I got my return authorization (the company gave me no problem and was speedy). Then I found it was going to cost me $35 to return. My decision them because did I want to take a loss on or was I willing to deal with dropped stitches.Finally I decided the aggravation of the dropped stitches was not worth my time or the $35 to see if there was a possible remedy for the problem encountered. It ended up my time was worth more than the $35 loss.So back it went.I have a big bulky flat bet knitting machine but thought this would be a nice machine to make the tubular sock blanks for dying.I was disappointed it did not work for me.
