Clover Round Extra Large Yo-Yo Maker Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)What a clever product and it's very easy to use. You just sandwich a piece of fabric between the disk and the holder, trim it and sew around the edges. Then pop out the disk, pull, and voilà, a pretty little yo-yo to decorate something with. I'm using mine to make a soft fabric doll for my daughter. The package comes with a little insert of ideas to use the yo-yo. Don't be fooled by the size, though, this extra large makes a yo-yo only about two inches wide when finished.

Singer Knitting Machine Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I'm a grown-up who loves toys and gadgets. Thought this looked interesting. Yeah, I read the "cheap plastic, too small, frustrating, etc), I'm also a "see for myself" type. Glad I am, because I am having an absolute blast.
It is a toy, not made for production. It takes a while to get started and understand what it and you are doing. I ripped it out about 3X before I got successful results.
The directions and pics are not as good as they could be, but you can figure it out after studying the movements-don't worry it's not calculus.
I wouldn't recommend for a child unless an adult goes through the whole thing first, since I could see the frustration it would create, but don't worry adults, you do not NEED any prior knitting knowledge it's that easy.
I would suggest not using the yarn that comes with it until later. Pick up some regular ol yarn and use that first. That way you can see what's going on. The fuzzy stuff will obscure your view and be more difficult to rip out. One other thing, remember, it is plastic, use a light touch or it will break.
For what it's worth, there are similar ones on the market-they're all basically the same. I preffered this one because it felt more substanital and it sits upright. I can set it on my lap while doing it and the results caome out the back. The others were like buckets that need to be used on a flat surface where the knitting comes out the bottom with little clearance so you have to contstantly adjust the tension, not difficult per se, just more to pay attention to.
Give it a try, it's not everyone's cup of tea, but I am having a good time turning out swatches.

Royal Knitting Yarn Ball Skein Wool Winder w/ clamp Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My wife got one of these a couple of years ago. It doesn't hold a lot of yarn but she shays," Good enough for most."
The plastic gear tear on the pinion often slip, which isn't a critical failure, but makes for a slighlty jerky motion when you're trying to maintain steady tension. Everyone of her fellow knitters has one of these Royal winders and the gear slippage thing happens to all of them. There's a model that supposedly works much better (The Royal Jumbo) and holds a lot more yar but costs about 6 times as much. Ah well, what's a little clunk clunk while winding? ;-)
