How does the Nordic yarn hold up in a washer and dryer? does it pill up or go fuzzy?

I know how to crochet and knit. I have had a Machine operated knitting machine to one of these. I personality got so frustrated with this machine because of “dropping” of a stitch. Maybe it won’t happen to you, but, for me the money wasn’t worth it.

Haw men?

You'd think writing code for knitting machines you'd be able to figure this out. Did you read the directions? Not that you should have to of you understand knitting... which you do. An 8 year old is able to make sweaters, blankets, socks with turned heels, in addition to the scarves, hats, and mittens. You can do short rows, you can even purl. Come on.

Thank you for this public service! Seriously, appreciated!❤

I pulled out my machine after it sat in my attic for 25 years. These videos have inspired me to get going again. Many friends have lovely socks for Christmas. Thank you for what you are doing I’m having such fun.

I don’t even knit and find her fascinating

My cat loves you machine knitting videos

This is ridiculous in this way. . . She did not cast on correctly. She did not understand how to make the piece correctly on the Sentro. Maybe she uses fancy expensive automatic knitting machines, but don’t be a “snob” toward a machine that works beautifully when you know how to use it correctly. Don’t criticize something you obviously don’t know enough about to use it properly.

I was wondering if you could give me a bit of advice on two knitting machines that I have the opportunity to purchase - One is never used, one is in excellent condition. One is a Toyota K747 with ribber and lace carriage ($250) and the other is a Brother KH890 with many extra’s ($400 or BO). I know nothing about the Toyota and if replacement parts, if ever needed would be a problem. I have no idea anymore what price is good. Any advice, tips would be so appreciated. I just love your videos and appreciate all of the information you provide.

can you use size 4 Walmart yarn?

I wonder why you didn't mention Brother machines...

This sweater is really cute!

I don’t even have an lk150 but I watch all ur videos for this machine, you’re awesome thank youuuu

My mother had a smaller one about 50 years ago.

Hello. Idk your name because I just found this channel. Congratulations on getting paid for your videos. 🎉 I loved watching you figure this machine out. You have a new subscriber. Can't wait to see more.😊

I have a Sentro too, and it is perfect for what I want to do. Of course it’s plastic and not professional, but it does its job. And I have to say : I absolutely love finding smart and intelligent women on the Internet. You are really interesting to watch and I loved this deep dive into the Sentro machine. Thank you for being here!

This is really helpful! I loved the cord you made at the end, just what my stockings needed 😀

I was wondering what IMPL stood for?

🫶🏻

Oh your sigh! Every knitter knows that feeling! ❤

I’m not very far into the video, but I don’t like her attitude about the machine. People can and do make many things and create income for themselves with these machines. Not everyone can make two-handed horizontal movements needed to use a flat bed. Within the first few minutes she states her pedigree, but with ten you can tell that she did no research, no prework, and has a bad attitude because she’s forcing herself to use this toy that she hates for views because it’s popular.

This is so inspiring. This is how I want to finish my sweaters. Also, former software developer. Thanks for all of your tutorials.

I had one of these in the 1980's. It's a toy/novelty item. It's not for professionals/ really good knitters.

I would like to get a real kintting machine

Some of us don't want a knitting machine. I have a Sentro and I'm happy with it. I don't use it often but I can crank out a hat or a scarf quickly without a large investment. It works for me but I don't think it's fair to compare it to a real knitting machine. If I start to actually use it more I'll upgrade to an Addi.

Thanks for sharing your video! The sweater turned out really cute! I was lucky enough to inherit my grandmother's flat knitting machine. However, I had it stored in the attic, because I had 10 cats at the time, and everyone knows about cats and yarn, lol! I figured I'd get it down when I had fewer of the little fur-balls to watch for. Unfortunately, we had a housefire, and we lost quite a few things. I was so disappointed. The only good thing, was that my handknitting speed went up a lot, lol!

Neck muffler/ scarf...cuffs etc .like thermos holders.

Saw this in a box at a garage sale. Should of maybe picked it up.

No electric way to make stuff

I am a crocheter and I have the Sentro and have made many beanies, scarfs, stuffed animals and even a dog sweater. Casting on properly is important. It can not compare to the machines that you use however it is a fun machine to use. I would have never imagined doing a sweater on the machine Amazing!!!

1:03:08 not me yelling "Hour 7!"

There is a video on short rows on the circular machines

Did you knit that jumper??

I am enjoying ur video very much and it's informative 😊, ty.

What makes ruckles and lines in the knitting, is because ur tension is loose one minute and tight the rest.u need to use the tensioner,but still make sure u always have s.ack off ur ball.

I’m only a few mins in watching you apparently give the sentry a fair shot…. And yes I saw your first video. Your arrogance over the machine is off putting. Your straightaway… I took the suction cups off…. Then you wonder why you’re having issues? The machine needs to be fixed and stable … many of us use g clamps even. The machine needs to be stable for you to get the tension correct…. If tension is right, you won’t drop stitches. Would you advise someone using a flatbed for the first time to disregard instructions and wing it then expect decent results? Not really giving it a fair shot are you hun?

There are several companies in different countries that reproduce the brother punchcard knitting machine (creative, nova, taitexma etc). Brother punchcard machines are also lighter than brother computer knitting machines (except KH 900). I have noticed with several of my original brother machines that they were being continually redesigned and some small features were scrapped because they became unneccessary or made easier to use or to save resources...and of course new features introduced. My knowledge based on punchies from 800 to 895, but also 900-950 computer models.

great job! thank you.

Your cast on issue might be because you are supposed to leave the yarn off the little pink tower on the second round, and then attach it to the pink slot and slowly revolve a few more rounds before you spin more rapidly. It needs 2 revolutions to “cast on” before any tension is added. The more rounds you go, the more weight the project has to keep it on hook,

Made in China. Which is fine she says. SMH.

I appreciate that this video helped me eliminate all desire to cozy up to one of these things. I am not much a of knitter but thought WOW...I can certainly CRANK! Well, not this. The racket that it makes would drive me crazy, and the hideous "hospital bed pan" mauve color? Um...no. THANK YOU thank you. I will look forward to purchasing beanies from all of you out there who have the good will and patience to create them. And for what it's worth...maybe the crank, positioned at the 4-5 O'clock position and the hook dealio at the 7-8 O'clock, would make it easier to handle....my bad right shoulder informs me....

Hoop and home do lots of videos on using sentro and similar machines, she shows you how to cast on, fix mistakes etc shes really good, I enjoyed your video as well😊

You use weights and tension on flat bed machines. Why would you do that on the sentro? Be fair.

Put your yarn in the tensioner. These machines also don't like certain yarns. I usually cast on weighing the tail. Put in tensioner and away I go.

I have a 1957 brother knitmaster flat bed. How do I get it restored?

Soo cool. Are you going to upgrade it to two color?

Tänan õpetuse eest .ootan kuni saan oma masina kätte

It took me a couple of weeks to get to grips with one of these machines (addi). I frogged the first 4 or 5 pieces. You have to get into a consistent rhythm of turning the handle that seems to be different for each yarn. It helps if you clamp the machine to a table which I wasn't able to do because I was bed-bound.
