Skip-Stitch or EdgeryDoo

[yarnhookncandle]

I'm trying to decide which one I want for Christmas. I am wondering if anyone has tried both and which do you prefer? Right now I'm leaning towards the Skip-Stitch... only because I do like the idea of rolling right along. Thanks!

I was wondering the same thing so I came to the forums and found this thread.

 

 

Anyone have any preference? Can you share your experiences?

After watching the video, I think the Skip-Stitch blade is a wonderful product. I do have a rotary cutter, and a board, so all I would need is the blade. It seems like a wonderful product. Thanks for letting us know about it.

I have the EdegryDoo which I LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!! and I never heard of the skip stitch until I saw this thread. So I had to check it out and it looks so interesting that I ordered one. As soon as I get it I'll let you know how it works. I just bought some fleece today to make for veterans in the hospital so I will use it on that.

I do not have an Edgery Doo, but I do have a Skip Stitch blade and love it. Mom and I are trying to use up off balls of leftover yarn by edging fleece blankets, and are enjoying ourselves tremendously. patty

I started out with the skip-stitch blade and I love it. I like just rolling it along and having it all done in just a few moments. However, I just bought the Edgerydoo in order to make the corner on my blankets have that nice rounded edge. I was trying to round them using a plate, or bowl - and it just wasn't working consistently and nicely.

 

So, I'm trimming my blankets using the Edgerydoo form, but I"m still making the holes using my skip-stitch.

 

I now want to get some of the Edgerydoo squares to I can make some block fleece blankets... but I still intend to make the holes with my skip-stitch.

Melody....did you ever try the skipstitch? If you did, did you have trouble making the curved corners? I still have not bought either but I am 95% sure I want the skipstitch.

I bought the skip stitch and it is OK but I prefer the EdgeryDoo. The one thing I did not like about the skip stitch it made a bigger hole and looked like it would tear easier. The EdgeryDoo makes a pin hole. I will keep using my EdgeryDoo and probably donate the skip stitch blade to someone else.

Thanks for the input Melody, this is good to know.

The blade I would be willing to donate. I only ask that you make at least one blanket for a charity. Doesn't matter which one. PM your address and I will send it to you.
