I have just joined and got my first knitting machine (Addi 46). I've knit & crocheted for years but new to the machine. Question though, is there a way to make for looser stitches on the machine? So far I'm just doing a circular tube and the stitches are beautiful but pretty tight. I'd like to create a much looser knit (more "airy" looking). Is that possible or is it one size fits all and only the gauge of the yarn determines the stitch? I look forward to learning this new craft!!!
Yarn winders
Manual vs Electric I have both manual and electric winders and was using both this morning so I wanted to do a little review on what I think of them and which I prefer. I think there are pros and cons with both manual and electric winders. I’ve found that some manual winders work better than others. The one that I feature in this post is the grey one in the photos. I am very impressed with this manual winder. It’s very smooth and winds fast. Will wind a whole 100gram ball with no problem. Very rarely tangles. I only have one electric winder and I like it very much. It winds a nice cake of yarn while you do something else! lol.. however, I have found that if you have it winding too fast, the yarn will catch and tangle and you can spend a lot of time unraveling. It winds nice and even and takes a 100gram ball easily. Winding tension is much better with the manual machine, you get a much firmer ball with the manual. The electric one winds looser and can unravel when knitting. You can see in the photos the manual wound vs the electric wound. I think that it’s down to how you like your yarn wound. I’ve found that tighter wound cakes work much better on the machines and knit a much more even tension. Also… I can manually wind 100gram quicker than the electric one does it! 😁 Hope this has helped a bit!!
