Is the SENTRO 48 worth it for a beginner?

Yes, if you want to make hats, socks and scarves without learning hand knitting. It is cheap to try and the crank is simple to operate. Expect some practice before stitches come out even.

What is the difference between T and P mode?

T mode knits tubes for hats, socks, gloves and plush toys. P mode knits flat panels for scarves, bags and simple sweaters. A single key switches between them.

What yarn works best in it?

Medium-weight wool and wool-blend yarns feed most reliably. Very bulky, fuzzy or slippery yarns tend to jam or drop stitches. The listing specifies wool threads.

What comes in the box?

The box includes the knitting machine, a row counter, a crank handle adapter and a hex steel bit. Yarn is not included.

Can it knit a blanket?

Only small ones. The 48-peg tube makes narrow pieces, and flat panels are limited in width. For large blankets you would seam several panels together.
