You literally showed how to do a panel in like a minute that I couldn't get with like hours worth of other videos😀😂🤧

[@itserinb]

Ahhhh that’s such a compliment, thank you!!

[@ericad3850]

That's great! I'm glad. What are you working on making now?

[@girlygamer420]

If you want thicker fabric, make long tubes in circular knitting mode. Close the ends and sew several tubes together. I've made several sweaters for myself and my daughter. Also you can use a mattress stitch to sew the panels to make toe seam invisible.

[@bruisedviolets]

I think the top would look better if the white yard was laced through smaller or if you used ribbon

[@vivienlee610]

I love all your tutorials but you've really nailed it with the knitting machine! It's the perfect look I've been after. I've made a few beanies on mine but wasn't too yet the skirt or sweater next. How come your machine is a gorgeous purple and all ours are pink?!! Thank you for all the joy you bring to us. 🤗

[@itserinb]

Tell me why Sentro reached out to me to send me a machine and I received a different brand in the mail 😂 but in all seriousness they are exactly identical, just has a different label!

[@vivienlee610]

@@itserinbHaha.. that is funny.. I'm glad they did though, you've certainly got the knack of it. And we benefit too 😊.

[@eves9207]

I picked up that exact same one off of Amazon and it arrived today. I spent the rest of my day learning how to use it. I freaking love the machine! I cant wait to make more with it. Gives me an excuse to buy more yarn lol

[@gabby1207]

i appreciate so much how helpful with the groundwork you are! you’ve taught me that the ch 2 never counts as a stitch and now you’ve taught me how to not drop stitches on the sentro! both are going to be SO helpful with making my projects look professional. the set looks cute! and i’m going to have to check out those yarns too, gorg!!

[@lavenderoh]

Sometimes the chains do count, just so you know. It depends on the designer and the pattern specifically. You should always read the pattern notes to know if it counts or not. If it's not noted it probably counts. Or if it's a ch2 and DC in the same space you'll know it won't count because if it did it would be a ch3 for a DC. But for HDC it's a ch2 that will count and ch1 that won't. So yeah it can get confusing, just pay attention to the pattern notes and you're good. 😊

[@itserinb]

Ahhh thank you so much!! I’m so so happy I’m able to teach you little tricks that you can carry throughout your crochet/knitting journey! ❣️

[@gabby1207]

yes, thank you for the explanation. i like to adjust the pattern/stitch count so that the chain doesn’t count :) i hate the hole left by a ch2(or ch3, whatever the pattern calls for) though i do let the ch2 count as a stitch with doily patterns lol.

[@amara560]

@@lavenderoh It depends on the designer. Some people use a ch2 that counts as a dc, and some a ch3. Like you said always read the notes.

[@crzychrldr]

you made a super cute white cropped cardigan months ago and i’m still dying for that tutorial. it’s sooo pretty ❤️

[@itserinb]

I posted the tutorial months back! It’s just a different color, and larger ❣️

[@adeguzman3482]

Not only are you good at giving instructions and making amazing crochet pieces. Thank you for the words of motivation at the end. 😭🥰

[@darlenebeal443]

I got a knitting machine for Christmas and so far I have made a lot of beanies, and ear warmers, and I have tried the panel feature, so I think the next project is to make a top! Love your outfit and videos!! 😊

[@darlenebeal443]

Oh! And I found a you tube video for fingerless gloves on the knitting machine. First pair went to my sweet sister in law! She loved them.

[@emmagrabill]

You go girl…. You honestly have inspired me so much to get creative and crafty!!! Thank you💕

[@itserinb]

Aww I’m so glad to hear that!! Stay creative ❣️❣️

[@tayshasocreative]

sexy! I love this skirt. Currently planning out a few outfits to make on my machine and get through my yarn stash. I’m defo going to add this to my plan xx

[@itserinb]

Yes I fully stan using up the yarn stash with the machine! ❣️

[@amara560]

This turned out so cute! This really makes me want to get a knitting machine for myself.

[@itserinb]

Thank you amara! Not bad for a first panel attempt 😂

[@amyking2597]

That’s fantastic Erin! Love this so much. ❤❤❤

[@itserinb]

Thank you Amy!! ❣️

[@TheVanessamclean]

Omg I love this!!

[@justonemorestitch]

Hello from a fellow knitter! You could wet block the panels and then it will be waaay easier to connect them and if you do it with the mattress stitch, the join will be seamless :)

[@atabeyhealing2442]

Just bought a knitting machine and I cannot wait to receive it so I can start making these cool things.

[@theminimalistninja]

Love how it turned out!! :D

[@itserinb]

Thank you 😇😇

[@patiharville8210]

Great job Erin. ❤

[@itserinb]

Thank you!!

Far Out! Beautiful! Hmmm.... I may have to consider a knitting machine! 🤭😁😍!

[@brujapandorabox]

This is cute asf!! I want the machine so bad, can’t wait to get my taxes back so I can buy it :)))) u did good !!! I love the color combo 💖💖💖

This is so cute! I love it!! Xoxo from Portugal

[@itserinb]

Thank you luana! ❣️

[@ehaleyg]

I love your sentro videos because I just ordered one the other day, I’ll be using your videos for help :) I would love to see you attempt making a sweater because I’ve been seeing some really cute ones using the machine! Most of them don’t show what to do with the excess yarn / strings that hang off though with the end product.

[@itserinb]

I’m already filming a sweater video!! With the tail just tie off a knot and weave it in, or crochet over the last row ❣️

[@judyhock5422]

Saving up for a knitting machine now!

[@itserinb]

So worth it!!

[@Samantha-eg9kx]

Beautiful pieces!! I watched this as I crocheted loll.

[@itserinb]

Tysm!! ❣️

[@tamaravalentini1481]

Ciaoooo Erin, sempre bravissima e simpatica, ciao😉

[@itserinb]

Thank you so much! ❣️

[@angelaclements1244]

It looks great aside from being see through but however would you wear it? Take tiny steps as it's pencil skirt.Won't it bag at knees and bum from walking or sitting? And whilst very much a summer outfit who wears wool in summer?

[@gail8801]

That's so fun! Do you happen to have the reference of the cord machine thinggy? I would love to make cords faster than with a crochet 😂

[@iona5069]

❤

[@fjolliff6308]

I'd put the icord as a strap for the top, to make it more halter-style.

[@lavibadass7033]

Hi I wanna know if knitting works for all sizes? Does it has a trick to know for each size?

[@VondaInWonderland]

Is the top just a straight tube ♥

[@AlysiaTribeca]

I wonder how many inches wide the skirt panels are on the skirt

[@sandrahankins8488]

How did you do the tube top?

[@anamilevelazcomunoz2428]

crocheting panels together is so hard

[@Kihandmadehaughty]

How did you make the strings?

[@1bluechild]

You should wear a long slip under bcuz it shows through when you complete a clothing.

[@Selena8407]

Do you still have to hand knit?

[@itserinb]

Not with these projects!

[@Selena8407]

Ok

[@MzNinja213]

Is that actually a Sentro? I clicked on your link but the link takes me to a machine that does not look like yours. Help?!?!? LOL

[@itserinb]

LOL it’s the exact same as a sentro, it’s just a different name plastered on it and a different color. They are identical!

[@malubarros5652]

Bom dia moça quantos ponto tem sua máquina a miha tem 40

[@annr3744]

Man, I just can't get into the knitting machines , I feel like it takes all the skill and craftsmanship out of a garment. I feel like I'm odd man out though

[@itserinb]

Doesn’t matter how a garment is made! I knit by hand when I feel like it and I knit with the machine when I feel like it!

[@amara560]

You can take this logic even further. Why do you buy yarn and not spin and dye your own? Why do you buy fleece and not keep your own sheep? There's no reason for gatekeeping. You will still need to do the work on a knitting machine.

[@jazzzmynnn6302]

You literally just showed me how to use this machine. Ily gurl🫶🏾

[@itserinb]

I gotchu!!
