    Your video looks so easy. But for some reason, mine bunches at the top and I end up with a ball of yarn

      Can you send it back to Art Beads for a refund? It's an expensive tool so they should definitely give you your money back if it doesn't work. Cheers from Amanda Jones, a fellow beader in Melbourne, Australia

    Very cool. That would be a great tool for someone like me who can't knit cause of dexterity problems.

    Great tutorial. I’m not a fan of written instructions so I was thrilled to see tutorials. I’m visual and you did an excellent job of explaining this little machine. Thank you.

    I remember having the manual version of this bought me for my birthday when I was a little girl and it was called a French knitting set. You had to thread it up with the knitting yarn which came with it and then manually slip over each one of the 4 stitches/loops. Once you got into the rhythm it grew quite well, but this is so much quicker. I will have to look for one over here in the UK.
    Thanks for this demonstration, it was very interesting.

    My regular yarn doesnt do well that doesnt come down after knitting. Is it too thick? Should i buy thinner yarn?

    I cannot get mine to work no matter what I do. I keep the weight hanging and I go slow and it just balls up on top. Any suggestions?

    Becky, thank you for trying it with wire. I’m disappointed it didn’t work, but I’m not surprised. It’s still a cool tool for yarn and thread!

    You can also use a double sided Tunisia hook and do the same method as the knitting needles.

    It really comes out nice when you add any bead.
    Can you add even 15th? Or is the limit like the smallest when you use is an 11? It is really pretty. You did a really cool job and thank you for showing us how it works. Thank you.

    • @ArtbeadsVideos
      @ArtbeadsVideos  Рік тому

      If the 15 size fits on your cord and fits through the center hole, I don't see why you couldn't use them!

      @@debracannon8572 I just tried to use this tool with 30 gauge wire and I wouldn't recommend it. My first attempt was a jumbled mess and the second attempt, the wire actually snapped and broke from the hooks and latches pulling on the wire. I also tried to use 24 gauge wire and that wire was too thick, the tension on the tool felt like it might break something. - Becky

    What can you do with these long cords. I’ve done corking for years but never knew what to do with them other than sew them in a round to make carpets or oval throws. Can you do anything else?

    • @ArtbeadsVideos
      @ArtbeadsVideos  Рік тому +1

      Hi Susan! I made a coaster with one, a bracelet with another, and I made a beaded cord that I used in a bracelet. They could also make cute headbands, I think they would be nice potholders as well. Here is a blog post with some inspiration for using them: artbeads.com/blog/tulip-i-cord-knitter-how-to-use-jewelry-craft-inspiration/
