I just got a smaller version of this for Christmas. I started having this problem within a week. Machine dropped stitches and thread. Live how she explains how to do this
GREAT TUTORIAL, JUST GOT THAT MACHINE AT CHRISTMAS. PLEASE NOTE THAT SOMEONE ASKED HOW TO UNRAVEL WASTE YARN USED AT BEGINNING OF SET UP. I TRIED THIS TO DAY ( REF FROM USING A KNITMASTER K/MACHINE) SET UP WITH WASTE YARN AS USUAL. ## AT THIS STAGE USE FINE COTTON , 4 THIN STRANDS ON WHAT I USED TODAY. 3METRES LONG. SET INTO PLACE AS IF YOU WERE JOINING YARN !! KNIT ONE( 1) ROW. NOW TIE A PIECE OF COLOUR WOOL ON END OF YOUR LAST PIECE USED. WHEN YOU PICK UP YOUR Ist STITCHES AND BEFORE YOU PULL IT INTO POSITION ??? PULL THE MARKED YARN OUT OF THE PROJECT. ?? NB--MAKE SURE YOU DON'T CATCH ANY OF THIS SINGLE THREAD WHEN YOU ARE PICKING UP STITCHES ?? SEE HOW YE GO?? HOPE THIS HELPS
Interesting that you figured out that those 2 pieces are suppose to be one piece together. I was a little skeptical 🤨 but when I saw an Addi machine taken apart indeed the ring similar to this one is a whole unit and seems like it is kept together by screws. I will try to fix mine too maybe glue like you or maybe screws. Will see. 😌
Great video!! I'll have to try this with my machine, it tugs and clicks when I try to use acrylic yarn like red heart super saver. Its been sitting on my shelf because i get so frustrated with it, hopefully this fixes my problem!
I have the same problem with some yarn it depends how thick the yarn is I also recommend using static guard but if the machine have so much travel working with certain yarn I will said don’t use it
Yes my machine is very picky in yarn it don't care for anything #5 it will work it just gives me issues at certain parts of the yarn but it completely loves #4 sorry not sure of brands I do know it hates tht "I love this yarn" brand
Red heart low quality in my opinion try Caron one pound… my sentro does fine. Take it apart and clean it dust it then lube it. Food grade silicone based lube
thank you for this video! i can hear that the machine is operating more quietly, does it feel better when you crank manually? it looks like your fabric after this operation looks much tighter with the knitting... bueno!!
Hola solo quiero saber donde puedo compar el attachment para el drill e escribe ante pero no me a contestado por favor si tiene tiempo deje saber gracias por este video voy a tratar lo que usted iso en el video
One of my needles is bent and won't knit anymore, it just keeps dropping stitches. I will check that too while I have it open. I hope that it will bend back ❤
I still have non idea where you put the glue and why you put it there. I see the places on the machine where the little nubs used to be....some are still there and some aren't.
You have to be able to take your machine apart to clean it with a soft cloth or hair dryer to blow the dust out. It is said NOT to use just any type of oil on your machine. Some Oils will eat away at your plastic. If you glue those two rings together, yarn dust will accumulate in between those two rings and you cannot clean them because they were glued together.
Esas dos piezas color rosa se supone que sean una sola. De alguna manera se rompió lo que las unías, aparentemente un pedacito de plástico como se nota en los circulitos blancos que ella señala. Ella utilizo pega para juntarlas de nuevo y así la pieza se mueve como una sola y no deja caer las puntadas, no se queda estancada. Para asegúrame de que así debe ser la pieza me fijé en la pieza de la máquina Addi la cual es roja y si se supone que sea una sola pieza y no estén separadas o rota como se muestra en el vídeo. Espero esta explicación le ayude 😊
I’m just starting out with a knitting machine and finding it very frustrating. Lost track how many times I’ve undone the work the past three days. I just decided to count the worked rows and surprisingly, the counter is way off. Looking at the end piece going around to the white hook, I counted fifty rounds, the counter showed 31! Now I’m counting the times it goes around and the work seems to resemble what it’s supposed look like. I’m also hearing a lot of noise and already tempted to return it after only a few days. Can the counters be fixed/adjusted or did I receive a lemon? The first machine received wasn’t even the brand I ordered. Any suggestions? Thanks
Yes unfortunately the counter of the machines doesn’t works well, it’s better if you install a digital counter what kind of yarn are you using also try to work at the same speed sometimes if we change de speed the needle start moving and missing the yarn, I don’t think the brand matter mine is also another brand

Hi Diana where can I buy the attchment for the screw driver to use in the machine I also would like to thank you for sheaing with us newbie I have a addi and a sentro machine will this attachment work on both machine you may think why do i have two machine being a newbies one was a gift the addi express king and the sentro i brought i still have not done anything because of the machine cranking all the time i will try what you did thank you and many blessings
Well Pat of the times I work with the drill I think the problem is working with the wrong yarn you can take a look of your machine inside and see what’s going on maybe lubricant will help I use I love this yarn and also velvet like 5mm some yarns doesn’t work at all in my machine
Do you ever get problems with your handle? Mine has got stuck a few times and keeps getting hot to the touch. There's a sound of little broken bits of plastic inside
This happened to me in the beginning I did it by hand I put too much pressure on the handle and it began to wear out because I also did it very quickly, also you have to be careful with the type of thread if the machine makes a lot of force it is better to try another type of thread or maybe lubricate the machine
It also happened with one of my machines the first time I used but now works really well I guess the machine needs time to adjust and you as well to know your machine 😅
I clicked on this because it says how to fix the machine and disappointed there’s nothing about it. Not the first time taking it apart and first time having issues.
En este video explicó cómo arreglar los aros de la máquina para evitar que no se quede atascada con la lana o aveces pasa que empieza a sonar muy fuerte o la manivela no quiere andar, aquí explicó que hacer para ello, si tienes algún problema con tu máquina avísame
@@DIANACORDOBAYOGA minha máquina está estralando na manivela, comprei aqui no Brasil graxa siliconada, e mandei fazer a engrenagem em 3d( impressão), eu uso o adaptador e ela não aceita lã com Tex 500, só 375, vou trocar a engrenagem, pelo que eu entendi, você colou os anéis isso, pq na Addi eles são juntos. Muito obrigado 😀
