SENTRO Knitting Machine 48 Needles, Smart Weaving Loom with Row Counter, DIY Rotating Double Loom for Adults and Kids

My young daughter loves to crochet but her hands were starting to ache after our vehicle accident. So, I bought her this machine to help her continue to enjoy what she loves doing, until she gets better. Thank you for making this machine so simple to use.

This is a toy but it is a Good little machine . Beware panels are next to impossible to create on this machine . It takes a lot of time patients and going very slowly to make sure the yarn stays where it needs to be and then it will still mess up . It is not smooth turning it will catch every couple of rotations ,it feels like the plastic is sticking in spots. Very noisy as well .There were no directions on use just how to assemble the legs. only really "works" with a sports weight or size 3 yarn US . Pros: making hats and scarves is wayyyyy easyusing the tube setting once you learn how to thread your yarn . There are way more cons than pro here as you can see . I understand it takes time to figure something out but it shouldn't take months on end to get something to work , creating panels , when it is advertised that it does said function specially considering this is a kid toy . Highly recommend watching YouTube videos to figure out how to work it , maybe I am just not inept enough to make a proper panel.

I made like 12 hats in 2 days my attaching my drill to it. The counter did stop working, but it's a plastic machine not meant to go as fast as I'm pushing it. I'm planning to make as many hats for my local homeless population as possible before winter, so this is perfect for my needs. It's not versatile, and it's obvious that what you make from it is not handmade, but it spits out durable and warm hats very quickly, so I have no complaints.

love that it did came on time

I was so excited to use this. Like a little kid excited when they open a present. Opened the box, reviewed the instructions carefully. Put the legs on, watched videos, setup my area and prepared to have fun. Round and round I went. Over and over the stitches kept bunching up on one hook. After restarting over and over multiple times I took a closer look and found a defective hook. I’m sad and disappointed. I wanted to have a nice day off enjoying knitting cute stuff with this machine. Nope not today. Back to researching a replacement hook, spending more money and waiting for it to arrive. . . You might say: why not return it for a replacement? I say: what if the new one is the same or worse? Then there’s also the time it takes to arrive. Pulling out my knitting needles so I don’t waste my day. Feeling cheated.

So, the suction cups doesn't really work, 1/4 suction cups works somet times. The legs are flemsy and torques. And for my machine the 2 and 3rd needle drops yarn when I do panel setting, and the 3rd needle will 'suck' my yarn in and does not turn over, so I manually have to pull the yarn every cycle. Having said that, this machine definitely makes knitting faster. You have to find an instructional video on you tube first to learn how to cast properly for tubular and panel method, but once you learn them, the machine becomes pretty self explained. The panel setting is definitely harder for my machine because of my 3rd needle gets stuck. But with a little patience, the hat or scarf will come out just the same. *Note* if you do panel setting, pull the yarn tight at the begining and end

I got this for my ten year old daughter for Christmas. She figured it out quickly and was making hats with ease right away. She had been wanting this and it has held up to her high expectations of it! I would highly recommend it! :)

Baffled at 1st on getting it to work. Instructions a little offish. But watch a few videos on YouTube and now I am having fun. Made 8 hats as of now. Mostly experimenting on which yarn works or doesn't work, the correct tension needed per yarn and the speed. It's like learning to ride a bicycle, first you go 5 feet, then you go 8 feet, then you are riding everywhere.
