Questions & Answers

What is the best weight of yarn to use with this, worsted weight (#4), or only finer yarns?

The last thing I want to do is drive. In spite of this, little hooks don't effectively catch all the yarn for every stitch - even with fingering weight yarn.

Does it get made in the United States?

I no longer have the package and I cannot locate anything on the unit. In Japan, a lot of the notions of the Tulip are derived.

The machine seems to work just fine after 30 seconds of use, but does it really last that long?

In my case, the yarn tangles up, but the needle didn't break.

Could you please tell me whether the crank handle is The drill I plan to use has to be power driven. Is that okay?

It is screwed into the base with two screws. In the end, my husband said no, you would not be able to use a power drill with the one my husband took apart.

This gadget works with yarn up to a certain size
5/5

When using this gadget, many people ask whether worsted yarn can be used. This will be the case if they mean #4. A picture of the largest yarn I've worked with can be seen above. When using thicker yarn, go slower and be on the lookout for loops that don't come off the hook. Knitting with this machine is so much easier than knitting with the blue knitter.

TENSION is at the center of this whole thing
5/5

There are no words to describe how much I love this product! There has never been a set cord that is as consistent and even as this one. My knitting took me less than two minutes to do what would have taken me days and weeks. The I cord maker is easy to use and thread since you can hold the left palm against the belly of the device and the yarn will flow evenly through it while you crank the right hand. It can be thread and used very easily. In addition to weaving a small rug, I will knit a pillow as well. Carol Szabo wishes you a happy crafting season.

I've never used an Icord Knitter as good as this one! The 4 ply worsted weight yarn will work great with this pattern! To maintain a skein's smooth operation, I blow out all the fuzz after finishing the spool by compressed air

I really like the design and functionality of this product
4/5

It works well to make a quick image There is no learning curve when threading the machine and it's simple to use. As far as weight goes, this model will get rid of chunky yarn, but should be fine with a 3 or 4 weight or lighter yarn. Due to the need to maintain tension on the yarn to keep the latch hooks engaged, I have found it to be a two-step process The task has been left to one hand, but the result has been good A cord is able to build up quickly and uniformly. The purchase I made has been very satisfactory to me.

The thicker yarn will not work for me
3/5

The EmbellishKnit I own (the purple one that looks similar to a lot of others here, but has a brand name) is purple. For yarns up to and including #3 the device does fine, but it As this item has been reviewed as being suitable for #4s, I took the plunge and With that size yarn, I am unable to get it to work. I think the first thing we need to do is A small amount of tube has been added to it The difference might be less than a millimeter It should help ease the cord getting stuck if the tube is a little wider (if the tube is too narrow, the cord will get tangled). The problem is that it doesn't work Getting the thread to appear below the latch requires me to keep pulling on the cord. It is likely that I will need to accomplish that at the beginning, but not when the cords hang out the bottom several inches A weight must be attached to these little machines throughout the whole process (these machines will not work without That thread would be greatly appreciated if It is the old loop that you used to use In the event that the latch is not below the yarn, it won't knit, the yarn will bunch up in the hook, and you'll have to take the whole thing apart This is not an easy task Put a new start on it. The latches don't open easily, as someone else mentioned I think this is contributing to the problem as well As well as having to manually open a lot more than I should have, I am wondering if the hooks are just too small for thicker yarns (meaning #4). Likewise, I had problems with the plies splitting. Some yarn was getting caught between the hook and the yarn As a result, it stretched, which wouldn't have happened if the strand had fit inside it entirely. With #3 yarn as well as with anything thinner than that, it does work fine Luckily, I found some embroidery floss in my stash, so I tried that out. The The movie deserves at least an extra star because of this. In my other machine, the latch hooks can open or split plies easily, and my other machine can also do all of that. As this machine has other problems, I have opted to send it back. This is because I cannot have two machines that do basically the same thing. NOTE (Note If anyone wants to check out the other machine in this list, you can find it I am a brand name, so it's important to keep that in mind. In regards to the other purple ones, I have no idea about their quality.

There are no instructions included in this kit, but that shouldn't stop you from making it
5/5

The product seems to be well-made! A great deal of quality is provided for such a low price. It does a great job of making i One thing I dislike is there aren't any instructions with it. Following a little search on Google, I found a video in another language on YouTube. The diagrams they included provided for how to use the program seemed confusing at first, but it was very thorough in what they showed. My recommendation to anyone looking to make their own i cords is beyond words.

Very good at what it does
5/5

There was already another brand of I-Gas available to me The cord maker I have (purple) is not working so I wanted to know if this one will work better since I plan to make a lot of I-cord The cord is in fact a better tool. Using thicker yarn has proven more efficient for me A small, round fingered sweater till a (smooth) worsted weight sweater Getting started is easier As work progresses, it is easier to move up the weight Then I can put it down to the middle There is a project, and it stands The shape is easier to hold as well. I have learned many things over the years on how to make good projects When you do these things you will always get a cord 1 *br* Attach the weight by passing the yarn through the loop. The yarn should be fed over the top and down the center. 1. You do not need to use any fancy knots, sewing needles, etc. The yarn coming out of the skein should be loose. Make sure that all 4 hooks are open. If you are on your lap or at a table, support the weight. 1. 2. 3. Turn the handle very slowly so the hook on the first hook grabs the yarn and closes. When the yarn reaches the second hook, stop turning and gently push the yarn to the side. Replicate for the next 2 hooks only, and lift the tool so that you begin to feel the weight pulling a bit. will only catch yarn on the hooks 1 and The yarn should be pushed behind the hooks 2 & 3 The fourth paragraph. Lift the tool straight up until the weight falls straight down, while you keep turning to reach it In the second half of the second half Within 3 cranks you will be able to accelerate much more quickly. Be sure to hang the work that comes out from the bottom and to weight it. You want the yarn to come in loose - Make sure it's loose As the clock ticks away, you'll hear a "tick-tock" sound Click to tick-off In cases where there is tension on the yarns, the ticks gradually change to clacks. It is the Tulip I - I like the cord maker because it is better quality and better designed and costs a few dollars more than the other brand. I'm glad I bought it as I find it to be much more useful than I expected.
