Addi Express Knitting Machine

I bought this with absolutely no experience knitting or crotching, and after a few hours I’m making fun socks and about to try my first “plain” knit and do a scarf. It’s an interesting hobby, but I’m already considering upgrading to a King to make hats and who knows?

The Addi Egg is a handy little tool! It’s great for making i-cords, quick repairs, or adding small details to larger projects. It’s compact, easy to use, and works best with lightweight yarns. There’s a bit of a learning curve with tension, but once you get the hang of it, it cranks smoothly. Perfect for crafters who like quick, satisfying projects or need a reliable i-cord maker.

The addi is the best circular knitting machine out there I have the 22 and 46 pin. My next purchase will be the 48 pin.

Love this machine! I originally bought this to make socks for my mom. I loved being able to pick out the softest, warmest, beautiful yarns and create them with love. It was so easy and fast, that I started making them for myself and then for other family members. There are so. many YouTube videos that give all kinds of tips and ideas that I found myself spending hours learning new and creative ways to make things. What a joy it is to get results so quickly and feel productive.

Unfortunately, my return window for this item passed by 2 weeks, and though I was interested in an exchange, I was told it wouldn’t be possible. After an unavoidable delay on my end, once I tried this small Addi I discovered it had issues that included inconsistent snagging of yarn, and extremely tight needle action, to the point that I expected needle breakage to occur as I cranked carefully. I have the Addi Express King and haven’t had any issues. I so hoped this would provide the same experience and was surprised when it didn’t. I’ll try another small Addi at my expense because I believe this defect is not the norm. I’ll also pay more attention to the return window date.

love this addi.. trick is to NOT use redheart yarn. what you can make is endless so easy to use grwat quality

My first machine broke after about 5 uses, the handle popped tight off. I started a return immediately, and had a new one in 2 days! I started out simple…pumpkins. Made about 40 and felt so good about them I gave them as gifts. Moved on to the sitting angel and have made 3 of those so far. I’m now working on a possum. I love this machine! I don’t know which is more fun, making things or shopping for yarn! While it works great, I’m always a bit worried about the handle breaking again. And, I really wish there was an alternative securing option. The only place I’ve found that works best is my kitchen counter, and I’m constantly having to move it. I already have the 46 pin in my wish list!!!

Works as described. My sister loves it.
