Sim won't knit AT ALL

So I've had the Nifty Knitting for a while but never had my sim knit anything until today. But THEY WONT KNIT ANYTHING AT ALL. I get the moodlets and the satisfaction points saying that my sim knitted something. But they don't show the animation and the finished product isn't in the Sims or family inventory. 

Yes I've tried everything. Deleting all my mods. Updating all my mods. Cleared the cache. Restarted the game multiple times. Sat in the rocking chair, then told my sim to knit. Had sim sit on everything then told them to knit. Deleted the knitting basket and bought a new one (every single one). Nothing has worked! Help

    Hi @shahnaaustin 

    Try resetting your user files as described in the factory reset described in this post: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/FAQ-Troubleshooting-Steps-amp-Known-Issues/m-p/3621199

    You won't loose anything. Just make sure to not delete any files  and make a backup.

    After renaming, repair your game by right clicking on the game in Origin.

    Try on a new game with nothing added back first (start new game). If it works, put back your save game and try again. If it still works, you can start putting stuff back.

    • Options.ini (or just re-set all your settings manually)
    • Tray Folder
    • Screenshots/Videos/Custom music
    • Rest of the save games (leave out slot_00000001.save which is the autosave and no longer needed - if you still have it)
    • Custom content like clothing, hair, skins, make up ....
    • ConfigOverride, if you have your own configuration files.
    • Mods (one by one, making sure they all still work)

    The rest does not need putting back, cause they are mostly cache files that recreate or log files that are not needed for the game.

    Are all your mods up to date? I know my mod was out of date and so I reinstalled the updated version and it fixed it!
