Mittens (small and Med/Lrg) ~ Addi, Sentro, Circular Knitting

[@misty_miss]

The bobby pin idea is brilliant!

[@koalaknitsandknacksaddicrochet]

Hahaha! 😂 ❤️

[@tinajefferies5682]

Great video. Here’s a time saver. After knitting waste yarn and before starting project yarn, knit 1 row of contrast yarn using a length about 6 inches longer than required for row, so you have about 3 inch tails at both ends. When you take project off machine and have picked up the project yarn stitches, you can just pull one end of this 1 row yarn until it comes out completely in about 15 seconds, to separate waste from project. Then you can unravel (UK term) waste yarn easily by pulling on tail that was next to the one row yarn, rather than struggling with first row of waste yarn. Loved the mittens and will be making these to go with beanies. Thanks for showing how to make mittens so beautifully.

[@koalaknitsandknacksaddicrochet]

Thank you! Great idea! 🙂 Thank you for watching. I’m glad you liked the mittens pattern.

[@Crochetbae__]

My absolute favorite method! ❤

[@hildebt7988]

Going to knit a lot of mittens this year for the homeless for next winter

[@toroddlnning6806]

how many rows is it on the glove and thumb for the medium/large pattern before you fold/double it? how many rows for the thumb? i watched it twice but i couldnt find exactly where you gave away the information and i didnt pick it up when i watched the entire video, I was to facinated by the machine. Also, what is the thickness of the yarn you use and how much meters of yarn do you need for both gloves both yellow, grey and black yarn? What do you think would be the appropriate size of knitting sticks to use to achieve same result as the machine with the same yarn that you use?@@koalaknitsandknacksaddicrochet

[@koalaknitsandknacksaddicrochet]

I do not post row counts but it is all in the video as I teach it. I do not use straight needles so I am sorry, I can’t answer that. Wish I could knit better with regular knitting needles. I am slowly getting better. Haha! I am using a 4 weight, worsted weight yarn. It doesn’t take much yarn at all.

[@janmchaney7912]

I just got my sentro machine yesterday, I am amazed of the projects that can be made. I did make a hat.

[@koalaknitsandknacksaddicrochet]

@@janmchaney7912 your gonna love it! Please click on my playlists to get a more refined search. If you can, get yourself the 22 needle machine as well. Then you can make anything. Come on over and join my Facebook group and show us your beanie.

[@micelleschoolcraft849]

Just a tip. I use the grafting method to close the end of the glove and I use it to close the end of the thumb. It gives you stretch instead of the solid seam that doesn’t give. I also did 70 rows and did a folded cuff which looks great. One more thing if you do the different color cuff I counted up 5-6 more stitches up from the cuff and started my thumb hole there. It didn’t pull on the cuff color when you put it on. I hope you enjoy these tips. Happy knitting!!!

[@koalaknitsandknacksaddicrochet]

I’m grateful for the tips. I’m no pro! Just doing the best I know how to do. I appreciate you.

[@bonnaewaldron2727]

My wrists are always so small like I don't think a man could use them I'm going to try the grafting method tonight

I bought myself a sentro 48 pin knitting machine for christmas and have loved using it. I also drive school bus and my fingers have froze this year wearing gloves and i told my husband i needed to hand crochet myself a thick pair of mittens. Not anymore...I just need to buy a 22 pin knitting machine and i can make mittens for myself and more to give away and sell plus i can make other things. Thank you for such a detailed video here a d your other ones. You have a follower here.

[@koalaknitsandknacksaddicrochet]

Follow the same pattern on the 48 needle machine. Make a flat panel over 22 needles for the thumb. Follow the same row count and just join it down the side into a tube and continue the instructions.

[@lynnebizlyne436]

I was just wondering if this required buying 2 machines. Glad to see it doesn’t 👍

I am brand new to circular knitting as of one month ago. I've made tons of hats, and I'm looking forward to making scarves and blankets - but never could imagine that one could actually make nice looking MITTENS with these machines! But now I see how it's done. Ingenious! My own Grandmother hand-knitted us slippers and mittens and hats when we were children. We looked forward to them every Christmas! Now I, as a grandma, can do the same for MY grandkids! Thanks so much for this detailed tutorial. I'm going to stick to hats for this Christmas, but once the new year hits, I'm going to expand my repertoire and start on next years' gifts! :D

[@koalaknitsandknacksaddicrochet]

Thank you very much! And….thanks for watching! You would have to experiment with your Addi King and be creative. But I would suggest maybe a crochet thumb. Single crochet around the base where you want your thumb and single crochet to the length you need and cinch the end closed.

@@raquelreyes8573 click on the top right corner of the video and a gear will appear. Click on the gear and slow the video down. That may help you.

@@raquelreyes8573 I just looked at the section in the video to make sure I didn’t leave it out by mistake and I show you there. A seperate video would be no different. Sorry.

[@jacquelinemartin9793]

Hi. Great video, Are you able to give me the link to how to do the joining of the mitten please? I scrolled through your videos, but being so new to Machine Knitting, I am not sure what this is called or what video of yours to watch. Thank you ;)

[@koalaknitsandknacksaddicrochet]

Sorry I missed this. It didn’t show up in the comments on KZbin but in a different section. It’s happening with a few comments. I show you how to join them in the video. It’s the mattress stitch/invisible join. I do not have a separate video just in that but I am going to make one cause I get asked about it. Whenever I use it in a video, I show you step by step.

Hello! I love them!!😍😍 👏👏👏 I'd like to knit them! Can you tell me how much yarn/wooll to buy,please? Thanks

[@koalaknitsandknacksaddicrochet]

Thank you! You really don’t need much. I think the ball I used had 298g and you could likely get a couple pair. It doesn’t take much. If you haven’t already done so, I would like to invite you to join my newly formed FB Group.

@@koalaknitsandknacksaddicrochet I thank you very much for your fast reply.❤️ I'm a beginner, I have never used the addi express knitting machine.😅 I sent the request to join your group.. Have a nice day ..

[@KlanHoffman]

Is there anything specific that watch out for if I try to make a thumb as a short panel on the bigger machine instead?

[@koalaknitsandknacksaddicrochet]

No, you can absolutely do that. Just make it double the width so it can be a double layer thick and be nice and warm. I’d love to see the end result so when your done please share in my FB group.

[@barbaramartinetti]

Newbie here.....can you use Bernat blanket yarn on these machines? Advice or tips?

[@koalaknitsandknacksaddicrochet]

No you cannot. It’s too thick.

[@barbaramartinetti]

Hi Koala...just one more thing....the addi directions say that the machine can handle sizes 3.5 through 8. The Bernat yarn I was given is a 6. Is that still too thick? The yarn is not stretchy at all.....might that be an additional problem for using it on the knitting machines? @@koalaknitsandknacksaddicrochet

[@koalaknitsandknacksaddicrochet]

Not sure why it says an 8 will work. It also depends what country you live in. I think in the UK an 8 is like a 4 here.

[@barbaramartinetti]

Okay. BYW, your videos are fabulous!@@koalaknitsandknacksaddicrochet

[@debbierakestraw8182]

got a 48 needle knitting machine for a mittens

[@marieclairecoupal3973]

Merci beaucoup!!!

[@keekim775]

What type brand yarn are you using? I have trouble with dropped stitches and tucked stitches. Only very soft yarns seem to work.

[@koalaknitsandknacksaddicrochet]

I mention the yarn brand in the video. I yes, softer yarns are best. Cheap, course yarns are terrible in the machine.

[@MW14580]

I have a 48 pin sentro and a 40. Can I use one of those for the mit part. I think you said you used one of those sizes

[@koalaknitsandknacksaddicrochet]

Whatever I use the 46 needle for you can use the 48 needle

[@audreysmascaramadnessyouni2156]

I have the Sntro 48 needle machine and I hate it I end up with 2 stitches on 1 hook then I gotta start over I just bought it 3 weeks ago and the counter is broke already saving up for the Addi machine

[@koalaknitsandknacksaddicrochet]

The counters are terrible on the sentro’s. You can’t trust them even when they do work. Seriously try different yarn. The Addi does the same thing with yarn it doesn’t like.

[@colleenovo1084]

Is there a workaround for the thumb if you don’t have a small knitting machine and only have a large one?

[@koalaknitsandknacksaddicrochet]

Make a flat panel over 22 needles. Follow the same row count then sew it up the side into a tube and follow the instructions as I have given.

[@raquelreyes8573]

Hi again I don't know what is wrong with my ADDI 22 needle knitting mchine to do the finger but the crank of my addi knitting machine gets suck and it will not turn what do you think it might be its new even the counter doen't work so can i use another machine to do the fingers please let me know by the way Happy New Year to you and your family

[@koalaknitsandknacksaddicrochet]

@@raquelreyes8573 do you have the red switch in Panel mode or circular mode? If it’s flipped to panel mode then do not force it to turn all the way around or you will break it. Other than that maybe you have a sewing needle stuck in the machine or a broken machine needle.
