I have the SlimLine clamp also and did an order of knit hats last week with no problems.

In my humble opinion, this device is meant for (and works very well) for items such as Carhartts and gym bags, etc. It would not work very well on items that are not very, very stable. Don't acquire one thinking it will take the place of a 9/12/15 cm hoop.

Is there a website that I could see this clamp in action? Ron Thompson Signguy Poke-Me Signs (408) 254-2044 San Jose, CA
