Caron Ultimate Knitting Machine Deluxe

I once was a long time knitter and thrived on expressing my creativity through yarn. Life, time, carpal tunnnel and a little arthritis had prevented that until I spotted this simple and basic machine that can handle the sport and heavier weight yarns I love to work with. I've used different and more complicated machines in the past and so am familiar with the 'machine' concept. If you follow the directions the Caron is very easy to assemble and use. I am now back to enjoying my creative side. I recommend this machine to all those knit lovers who think the pain in their hands isn't worth satisfying their creativity.

This knitting machine does work, but you do have to be patient, and practice. Picking up dropped stitches isn't easy, especially if using specialty yarns.

I suggest that if you are using balls of yarn, to place them in a clean coffee can.

The stitches are nice and uniform, making a more professional looking item.
