Hi, I’m Katie and I’m here once again with your Makers’ Minute! Today we’re talking about our awesome knitting machine, the Addi Express King Size.
The King Size is our larger version, which is great for worsted weight yarns to make hats, cowls, flat panel knitting…that’s right, you can work in the round and in the flat, because as we all know there’s a certain holiday season just around the corner, and perhaps you’ve over promised a couple of gifts.
That’s why you’re going to love this knitting machine. In no time you can whip out a hat for your brother, a scarf for your friend, and a felted wine cozy for your best friend! Skacel even has a video on their YouTube channel of how to make a hat in half an hour. You can see that link in the description below.
With your purchase of the Addi Express King from Makers’ Mercantile, you’ll also get your choice of one of our yarn kits. The yarn selection for these kits were specially matched because we know they’ll work up great on this machine. Don’t worry each kit is available in multiple colors that we know will look great together. The yarns we currently have available in these kits include- a 100% extra-fine merino (that’s what’s worked up here now), HiKoo Kenzington, Hikoo SimpliCria, and Hikoo Trenzado. Need even more yarn? Not to worry! You can purchase additional kits as well.
Stop over to makersmercantile.com right now to pick up your Addi Express King and get going on all of those gifts to make sure everyone has something handmade this holiday season.
