I have 4 Addi’s and I absolutely love love love them

[@Marie-xt2hy]

You are giving me so very much knowledge!

[@CinnamonStitches]

Comments criticizing the machines, and people who use them will be deleted. I'm not going to argue over whether or not these items are hand made or not. If you don't like the idea of a knitting machine, just close the window and move along to the next video.

[@Swtnovember29]

I don't think anyone is criticizing you, you also thought the same thing at first too. Please don't take it personally. You are doing a great job!!

[@CinnamonStitches]

@JoAnne I have removed several comments absolutely criticizing me.

​@@CinnamonStitches Some humans suck, Jen. Sorry

[@lynnesanders8215]

Hello sweetheart. The fact that little man and Ju ju like using the machine is enough for me. And I laughed at the leg warmer thing. I would need to join your leg warmer club. A scarf would be lovely in a really fine thread then it would be lightweight and decorative and still warm enough. I am making the Bakery Bears 'crescent Cowl' on a circular needle. It is the first time I have used one and couldn't get going at first. But now I am loving it and it is the first time I have been able to knit without very painful hands 👍👍. So sometimes we have to try something new. So glad you are loving your new experience because we should not let ourselves stagnate. And it is not to the detriment of our other accomplishments. Have fun with everything. Good motto for life really. With All my love Your Cinnamon bun , Lynne xxx (Auto correct came up with Cinnamon bunny, I had a little chuckle 😅😅🐇

@@CinnamonStitches It’s so disgusting that people have to be nasty to each other. I think it’s wonderful that you bought the Addi king size and you and your kids are loving it. I think you are such a strong and self reliant person. I know you may not think that of yourself, but I see it. ❤

[@TwylaWorld]

This machine is a game changer for people with fingers that aren't as flexible as they used to be! Hand knitting kills my hands these days and I can't do it for very long!

[@JaiBeesCrochet]

I know this is an older video but, yes, I’m mesmerized by the clicking and turning. And it is making me anxious waiting for mine to ship and get here two days later which as I watch this I only have one more day but I want it now. Hahaha

[@VictoriasCraftyRoom]

Hey Jennifer!! Been watching for several months now. I am glad you got the Addi. I love mine. I am a school bus 🚌 driver. And I have about 60 elementary kids in my bus. So before Christmas break 2022 I made hats!!! I bought the $1.25 skeins from DT and I skein made a hat for each kid… they loved them and are still wearing them!! Good luck!!

[@OrigamiCalm]

That's such a lovely thing to do!! They will always remember that.

[@claudiafromgermany1674]

Hi Jen, I bought my Addi during the pandemic and since then produced hundreds of hats for charity (homeless and children in Romania). I also crochet and hand knit baby blankets all year. Ignore the negative people, they suck and will criticize and bad breath anything and everybody. Thank you for all you do for the yarn community.

[@KnittinDebsKnook]

Hi. Thanks for the mention. I’m trying to get back into making videos. We got a 3D printer so we are upgrading the Addi adapter. A hat in 7 minutes!

[@egoreknits]

My husband has a 3D printer and he printed a tensioner for both of my Addi knitting machines. Those tensioners make a huge difference which makes knitting on the machines even easier. He also bought me a small electric drill so that when my arms get tired I can use that but it doesn't go super fast so I don't have to worry about breaking the machine.

[@karenb6791notakaren]

Yes, I saw some of those tensioners on Amazon. Seems like it would help a lot!

[@KrissD.]

Where do get these tension things and does your husband know of a 3D pattern for them cause my husband has a 3D printer 😊 I still haven’t yet used mine lol but I want to start learning it and playing.

[@karenb6791notakaren]

I would love one but I'm not sure I could manage cost

[@melaniecrochets]

I love that you did the whole process in real time. Your ability to talk about pertinent things while showing a mundane process is why your channel just works. You make it seem easy 😘

[@twigthehuntress5017]

I love the Addi knitting machine. I can't do much crocheting or knitting because of the pain in my hands. This is definitely a game changer. My hand's don't hurt anymore and I don't feel bad. At least I'm able to do something without the suffering.

[@geekatrinabrown]

I hand knit, and crochet, and have for many years. I am also the proud owner of the addis and the sentros, all sizes. If some think it's cheating, that is, of course, their prerogative. But it's like saying using a sewing machine to create garments is Cheating....should everything be hand-sewn then? Of course not!! Thanks Jenn.......

[@YarnWithHeart]

Love your idea of combining Addi stitches together with some crochet/hand knitting stitches... For me, it would be useful for scarves & hats, and maybe I could sew rectangles together for blankets. Maybe Mr. W will get me one this Christmas time, so I can donate more items :)

[@karenlaroche8200]

You are not alone!!

[@barbaraculwell4812]

I watched a video where the lady suggested folding a dryer sheet around the yarn for it to go through before going around the pegs. I tried that on some yarn my machine didn't like and it worked. The hat, headband and scarf look great.

[@MamaTata86]

Absolutely loving the turban style headbands you've made! 😍 Thank you for sharing this video with us. I love how your opinion was similar to mine prior to you getting it, yet you've opened my eyes to how beneficial it could actually be to have one. 💖 I also love how Mr. Cinnamon, JuJu and Little man can even get in on the fun.. I appreciate you taking the time for this video for us! 💖

[@kathir2264]

This looks like so much fun, thanks for showing the process from start to finish, I can see how it would really tame the yarn stash down, and getting the kids involved is a win win for me 🥰

[@katrienvh4289]

If there is no tutorial about hand decreasing stitching for a hat made on a knitting mill, you could have found a gem if you would make one, because that could be a video that goes through the roof for views!

[@CinnamonStitches]

I'm working on that video. It will be in March some time

[@maryfury3527]

Jennifer, I love your new projects. Your table is perfect...Mr. Cinnamon did a great job. You did a wonderful job demonstrating on how to use Addi knitter...you are improving so fast. Your projects look so good. The closing looks great where you transferred to knitting needles to decrease 💜🙂

[@Gnomester66]

Well, I'm sold.. I've just started crocheting twiddlemuffs that I want to donate to local homes and hospitals for people with dementia & alzheimer's. I'm fairly knew to crochet/knitting so I'm slow, slow, slow. I can see that getting one of these machines will enable me to get so many more twiddlemuffs made than if I just keep doing them by hand. Now to start saving up to buy one. It's going to be well worth the wait and cost. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and experience with the addi. I hope you continue to enjoy your new machine.

[@mellodym5931]

Jennifer, there may be a BAZIILLION videos out there but not YOUR video! Yours will still be unique and some people will relate better to you. So don't let that bazillion prevent you from making one ... if you want to. One tip I would give you is to do a couple of more rows of your waste yarn. If it begins to unravel like one end of yours looks like it did after it got hung up on the needles, it might go to far and cause it to release from your stitches. More is better. lol I don't know if you've seen this trick but when making hats, sometimes you'll notice the end stretches out into a bell shape. If you will grab the hat, securely, and WHACK the end of it on a hard surface a couple of times, it will straighten out. (Good way to get out your frustrations too) LOL! You're doing great and have learned a lot in a short time. I would also suggest trying the drill and attachment. I use mine once I have a few rows started and it works great. It saves a lot of time and the tension comes out great with just your normal gliding the yarn with your hand. Have fun!

[@janetbales9749]

I have had mine, Addi for over 10 years. And every year, I use my left overs a make as many hats and scarves that I can. Donated to many organizations over the years.

[@JacqsieRae]

I absolutely love your blanket! It's gorgeous! So last night my daughter n her boyfriend took my son out to eat...afterwards they stopped at my house. The day before...I made 5 hats on my addi using the soft n sleek Costa Mesa/972. And the blue Jean colorway. When my daughter's boyfriend saw those hats he HAD to have one! I told him where I got the idea from...he thought that was the coolest thing...lol

[@beamiller6188]

[@yarnchickenkim]

Your husband is such a great one for helping you in your craft. I have been a hand knitted and crocheter for years and never wanted anything to do with the machines until about a week ago. I want it for charity knitting so I can make more hats faster. And I’ll make some hats to sell to earn back the cost. Thanks for this helpful video.

[@taniamitchell604]

I would buy an Addi in a second if I could afford it. I have a Sentro and love it. It's not cheating, its a tool to help expand creative minds. The things I have seen people create on them is mind blowing.

[@sonyasiedschlag3916]

Thanks for sharing. I just purchased the small & large Addi machines. I think I found a good deal on them. I had many of the same thoughts as you did before deciding to buy them. In fact, I wanted them for years, but couldn't justify the cost and space until recently. I had looked at reviews on all the circular knitting machines and they weren't good (at the time). I tried finding the high quality made from steel ones and found them way too costly for my needs. My craft room is overloaded and I'm now invading other rooms in my home, which makes me very unhappy. People gave me large quantities of yarns and now I am overwhelmed. I'm now spinning my own yarn and just don't need or want most of the store yarns; however, I don't want to get rid of them either. Then I took note that people knit hats for charity. My husband runs a Food Bank and there is a local center near us to help save babies. That was my justification for buying these machines. I found many KZbin tutorials that help with the learning curve. Since watching them, I haven't found the poor reviews as I had before. Within the last few days, I've made my first 6-7 pairs of socks on the small and 7 hats on the large. Yes, I have problems with certain yarns, drop stitches, double stitches and so forth, but I'm learning what's causing them and what to look for. I have a long 1952 knitting machine and a "As Seen on TV" from the 1990s. I've made many tops with them, but the machines aren't easily accessible. The problems are no different. I hand knitted my whole life. Drop stitches and other mistakes occur. That's just how it is. I'm now using up the excess yarn speedily, will help other people and still can enjoy doing my other many projects in between. I feel it's a win, win, win. So far, I'm very happy with these two Addis. Thankfully some of the tutorials went over some issues or problems that I also had. I saw them first so I didn't panic.

[@michellewilbur8180]

Hi I have the small and large machines but I don’t use them enough 😂 You have inspired me to start using them again 😊 I want to make some preemie hats to donate to the hospital with the smaller one. I like the table your husband made I use one of those wood little barstools that I got from Walmart for the larger one I turn it upside down and attach the machine to the bottom and then I can put my feet on the part, you sit on and hold it in place while I crank the machine. 😂🤷🏻‍♀️ It works 😂 I know you really don’t want to, but if sometime you could show how to finish their hats at the top by hand knitting, I would like to see that 😊

[@RoselikescrochetB]

Hi Jen! I just got an addy king size too. Boy were my first projects a disaster. I’m getting a little better but it definitely takes practice!💜

[@CinnamonStitches]

It's a big learning curve

[@CraftHarlot]

I'm a handknitter and crocheter, and wanted a way to churn out some gifts and donations. I bought the Sentro 2 months ago, made a couple hats. At first I was frustrated and aggravated about the dropped/tucked stitched, but I found a yarn that worked (Big Twist) and figured i could always use Caron Simply Soft since everyone said how well it works on Sentro. So, last few days I've been trying EVERYTHING to get this thing to work! I thought maybe it was static, I've tried dryer sheets, thread magic, misting with water - it just drops or tucks stitches no matter what. I even bought Simply Soft, and that was a screaming wreck!! So. I ordered an Addi. Now to figure out why this Sentro isnt working so i can pass it on to someone who has more patience! I really liked the Sentro when i first got it, if anyone has any thoughts on how to sort it out, I'd love to know! (Im thinking of opening it up and seeing if a good lubricant might help.)

[@etorres6253]

Jennifer - please post some Addie tutorials for your fans. 😊 love your tutorials and your channel. ❤

Hi Jennifer, I have the addi and the sentro, but i also knit, crochet and weave on big looms. I can understand the reason for plastic verses metal. ("Rust and extra care/cleaning and oiling.") Absolutely loved your machine and hand knit hat. Awesome!!! Thanks for sharing, Hugs

[@scottydog6539]

I know I bought both sizes. I bought the small one first then saw how small the knitted items were. I bought the large Sentro and was not happy with it. I then purchased the large Addi. It is great.

[@nanapapaikenberry8476]

I have a sentro.......wish I could afford an addi. You are so real when showing how it works. I also knit and crochet......i love both. My machine I also love. Like my children and grandchildren, I'm capable of loving them both. As usual, I so enjoy you.

It's not cheating & your hand finish is beautiful. I got both sizes in a special deal about 5 years ago, came from Germany. Now I see they have an egg to investigate. I'm 71 now, also working on my health. I'm doing the carnivore diet, lost 12#'s so far in less than a month of easing into it. Hope to lose 60 more. Just got my addi out again to work during winter months for gifts. So many sweater projects to do that I bought when I knew I was moving to snow country. Still have to finish my first sweater I started before my move almost done, but think I may have to get some lessons & help to get my mind going again. I'd hate to mess it up at this point. Addi is so inspiring because you get a result so fast.

[@RockPaintinLady]

Love your video. I bought a sentro. I can’t do it. I’m so disapointed. But I’m meeting with someone I was referred to tomorrow. Hoping she can help me. In my mind I just wanted to pump these out like crazy to make cute hats and scarves to ship to homeless communities I’ve been watching on YT. CROSS YOUR FINGERS

[@HJKelley47]

A flatbed knitting machine cost much more than the Addi. Love my Addi, as well as my 9 flatbed knitting machines. The learning curve for flatbed knitting takes time, but well worth it.

[@JeanTownsendPurvis]

I don’t know if this suggestion has been made yet. I noticed you are having problems with your arm hurting while cranking I also have the same problem. I have found that if you stop for about 15 minutes when the pain starts if you do a few slow rotations of the shoulder for the count of 10 will relax the arm. Then you will be able to start cranking again. If it continue to hurt rest and rotate your arm again it actually will enable you to continue cranking without pain. Former Physical therapy patient.

[@user-rk1ie8lh4l]

Just wanted to add my experience to your comment about crocheters having difficulties in learning to knit. I was a crocheter for years and gave up on learning to knit because I just couldn't do it! Then.....a friend that learned Continental Knitting in Germany instead of the English Knitting taught mostly here in the US. I was able to pick it up easily because of the difference in how you hold the yarn & tension. I love knitting now especially afghans. Please, check it out.

I have a much better idea now about what is involved in actually making stuff. Thank you so much🌺 Also, Mr cinnamon is a real good handyman.

[@susanhicks770]

First of all Jen, I love and appreciate your honesty. I hope you will appreciate mine. I agree with you on the donation aspect. But as far as the craft fair thing, when I shop at those I am expecting hand made items. I feel a hat made on the Addi is machine made and I hope the craft vendors are being honest about that. I would expect to pay less for machine made Addi hat than a hand made item. I could go to a store and buy a machine made hat. It’s a fun Hobby I suppose but not hand made Love your videos. Have a great day!!!

[@CinnamonStitches]

It is still a hand made item. It's made by my hands, my creativity, with the assistance of a machine. Do you not consider it a hand made quilt, or project bag, because they used a sewing machine instead of sewing with just their hand?

I do not knit and so it was nice to have it to knit with. I am a full time crocheter. I also have the small Addi. I have made baby hats on it but nothing else as of yet. I will have to try headbands.

I love it for the double knit hats and recently I've been doing the flat panels and then sewing them together as a cardi...then the tube/hat can be a fast sleeve or a small flat panel can be sewn into a sleeve. I like experimenting with which yarns and weights work best. Some definitely take longer to prevent dropped stitches. Lol Thanks for sharing! I'd love to do a craft show one day but feel a little intimidated. 🤷🏻‍♀️🙃

Thanks Jennifer for sharing, a lot of food for thought, the knitting machine looks like fun.

Hey Jen, so glad you made this video. I watch you every afternoon when I get home from work and thoroughly enjoy spending the afternoon with you. I have to admit, I've never actually given any thought to getting a knitting machine but, after watching this video, the one thing I know for sure is that I need to get a Mr. Cinnamon. LOL...Many thanks and much love from Washington State, Tami

Hi Jennifer, I too have a addi king, that I got after I seen bod review it sometime ago. Then made hats an scarfs for family; then started going to craft fairs. Now I have an addi pro an using both to make amigurumi's; I just started doing, I have made right at 40 little bunny's for up coming craft fair in no time at all. I really am enjoying the the addi knitting machines. I hope you enjoy your addi knitting machine.

Hi Jen, I love my knitting machine. I have 2 sizes of the Centro. I make amigarumi, draft dodgers, hats, sweaters, tunics, earwarmers etc.. as you said the possibilities are endless. Yes practice, practice. It does bring out a lot of serene, peaceful time. I still crochet of course. But, thie machine is a nice little break from the hand work too. Thanks for sharing what this process does for you. Love the table Mr. Cinnamon made. 😍😍
