    Thank you for your very clear tutorial. I purchased Addi machine 4 years ago but did not open the box till now . Without your tutorial, I probably lost since no DVD was found inside the box .
    Merry Christmas and a Blissful New Year.!

    I asked for an ADDI express king size for Christmas. My family chipped in and got it for me.
    My mother didn't recognize the box so she had me open it as I am the present wrapper. Well, it was my ADDI! I am so excited! I have just three more designers choice commissioned pieces to make and ship. Christmas gift early is so nice as it will help get my work out while learning to use it with you Mikey. I'm confident in your abilities so let's GO!
    I have been really wanting one of these for a year. Can't wait to dive in to all the things it can do after the rest of my orders are completed. This will now let me offer crochet AND knit items to my clients.
    Thank to for the comprehensive tutorials. I knew exactly who to turn to. I'll be ordering your new crochet book next.
    After this goes well next I'll be ordering the ADDI professional and egg next for quick charity work.

    Thank you for this video, I've watched many on TH-cam and nothing I have had my addi for nearly two years, i had a go failed put away, out again failed put away so many times I thought about either selling it or banishing it to the attic, watched your video a few times on my tablet still couldn't get to grips till I watched it on my TV and finally got the gist of it, don't know what my first try will come out like but now I know I'm not thick just needed a bigger picture so thank you for your video 😀😀

    I didn't get a little book or a DVD. Was I suppose to? The side of my box has a QR code for .ore tips and instructions. Thinking maybe that replaced other books and DVD??
