FYGAIN SENTRO Knitting Machine, 22 Needles Knitting Crochet Machines Kit for Sock/Hat/Pumpkin

This thing is Awesome! It went beyond my expectations. I crochet and I was hoping to find something to help me fulfill my orders to save my arms from aching so much from hours of crocheting. I make a unique item that has been in high demand. So I am going to play around with this to make my pattern work. I uses all the yarn it came with and made a hat as practice and my 7 year old helped. My advice to you is this: go on youtube and search how to cast on and cast off a sentro knitting machine, how to make a hat or ear warmers with it. You watch the videos before attempting to use then watch more. This really works and it is super easy.

I bought one for myself and one as a gift. By the time I use the two small skins of yarn that were included in my own, it began to grind and skip and sound like it was beginning to break apart. Not happy with the product.It also says that it nits in a tube as well as a flat, but the flat setting does not work. It only turns for a couple of stitches, not any large portion of the cycle.

Love it all the time.

It works nice made some cute things with it. But the 3 complaints I have knowing how well the Sentro 48 pin I have works well are:1. No row counter - so projects like this big bow headband that has 160 rows means I have to sit there and count every time I see the black pin.2. The crank seems to slip frequently no matter how slowly I turn it. - I’m afraid this will lead to it breaking sooner.3. No suction cup feet to hold it in place - I have to put my arm through it to secure it in place so that it doesn’t move while I’m cranking it.Overall, I’m glad that I got it because I can make some projects have been wanting to make. Would I purchase it again? I’m honestly not sure because I’m so afraid it’s not going to last more than a few projects. So far, it works. But the quality is way less than I expected already being a sentro 48 pin owner.

I’m using the knitting machine. I’m still learning how to knit with the machine

I always look at the reviews before buying a product and almost didn't buy this because of the reviews BUT I am glad I did purchase this product! Everything was well packaged, clean, nothing was broken and it was easy to assemble. It is hard to read the instructions on how to cast the yarn onto the machine so I went to Youtube and found hundreds of videos on how to use this machine and now I'm about to finish my 3rd scarf after only having this machine 12 hours. Suggestions for possible future users of this knitting machine...Don't crank the machine at a 1000 mph!! The faster you crank the handle the more mistakes will happen like missing stitches and the yarn getting caught on the backside of the peg between the needles. Make sure the tension is correct for the thickness of yarn you are using...thick yarn = loosest tension, medium thickness = medium tension, thin thickness = tightest tension. If you take your time, work at a medium pace cranking the handle, you will produce a very nice panel or tube. Definitely a good product for the price!!

I bought this little machine as an experiment because I do pan crochet. I found it to be nice and enjoyable. I thought it would be quick and reliable, and I will purchase again if needed.

This is the second one I am having to send back. I received my replacement yesterday. Opened it today. The original box looked like it had been taped back up. I pulled the machine out and put the legs on it and one of them had markings from a marker on it. The machine has scratches and looks like it had already been used. I'm asking for a refund on this one and going to try a different seller because this one is just sending out the returned ones instead of sending out new ones. When I loaded my yarn into the machine and started cranking, I could tell it was already going to be hard to crank as the crank itself was very tight. And I didn't even have my yarn on the tension device. About 6 rows in, it skipped 6 stitches in a row on the same row. The first one I had did the same thing. Sending this one back as well.
