- What can I knit with 22 needles?
- Circular tubes about 4 to 5.9 inches across, such as hats, cowls and sleeves, and flat panels about 5.9 to 7.9 inches wide for scarves and blanket squares. Larger garments are made from joined panels.
- What yarn does it take?
- DK to super bulky yarn, roughly 3.5 to 8 mm, matching US 6 to 11 needles. Very thin yarn slips and very thick yarn strains the needles.
- How is it different from the Addi Express King Size?
- The King Size has 46 needles and knits much wider pieces, including adult sweaters in the round. The Professional is smaller, cheaper to own and easier to learn, but limited to narrow work.
- Does it come with spare parts?
- Yes. The box includes the machine, 22 needles, a needle holder, 5 replacement needles, 4 legs and 2 screw hooks for table mounting.
- Do I need to know how to knit?
- No hand knitting skill is needed to crank the machine. You do need to learn the cast-on, yarn tension and how to bind off, which the instructions cover.
- Can it knit in the round and flat?
- Yes. It does circular knitting for tubes and flat knitting when you work back and forth, up to 19 needles wide.
