Machine knit buffalo plaid beanie

[@valoriec]

This is the first time I've seen colorworking on a machine. Awesome!!! Thank you for this.

[@TheAddiQueen]

Thanks for the comment. You'll have to look at some of my heart hats! They seem to be pretty popular!

[@TheTattooedCrafter]

This is amazing!! As a newbie to the circle machine and making knitted hats (doing a load for my local hospital for the maternity ward) I wanted to make some more interesting and seasonal. This is perfect for autumn and Christmas. Tutorial was brilliant and so easy to follow. Thank you so much for this. Can’t wait to see how mine turns out ❤

[@TheTattooedCrafter]

Have tried a couple of goes but for some reason some of mine are dropping a stitch. Have you got any ideas or suggestions? I’ve tightened the tension in the hope that that would fix it but it doesn’t x

[@TheAddiQueen]

I would just go slower. If you see the machine starting to drop a stitch, you can fix it before it happens.

[@graciediaz5343]

I can hardly wait to copy your design. Thank you so much for your great tutorial.

[@TheAddiQueen]

Thank you for watching

[@Crafty3627]

You really thought outside the box and brought the addi machine to a whole new level. Great job. Very creative. I’m looking forward to watching some of your other videos.

[@TheAddiQueen]

That is so sweet of you to say, thank you so much!

[@annemariegor2459]

Very cute. Great tutorial. Thank you. I will let you know that I put duct tape on the bottom of the suction cups and stick it to my work desk. This helps hold down the machine so it doesn't move on you as you work. Its an easy fix and easy to clean up after.

[@couponpandaturnedteacher7468]

That's a GREAT idea..thanks!

[@RaymondNok]

I have only Sentro. Easy to follow tutorial. And i just realized that I have to get me a cake maker too.

[@TheAddiQueen]

Cake makers are a life saver

[@RaymondNok]

@@TheAddiQueen i wasn't talking just about yarn.😅 And i know how to bake. But yeah, you're right and is on it's way.

Wau was für ein tolles Video ❤richtig gut erklärt ❤ich habe soetwas schon mal ausprobiert 😮hatte aber leider nicht geklappt. Jetzt habe ich dieses tolle Video gesehen ❤❤ Ich werde es noch einmal ausprobieren 💖💖👍danke schön das du es so toll erklärst ❤❤

[@TheAddiQueen]

What issues did you have? A lot of times issues can be fixed with tension!

[@likeyournails]

Truly hand knit. That's awesome

[@jaymielee1110]

The plaid is neat came out very well. Ive stopped saving for a 48 pin. On a crochet kick now. Knitting machine is on a break.

[@tarameier6575]

That looks great. Enjoyed your work.

[@TheAddiQueen]

Thank you so much

[@juliebute905]

Very cute!!!

[@TheAddiQueen]

Thank you

[@Hutchs-hands]

Love plaid, but slow down when changing your colors so its clear where to stop and start

[@TheAddiQueen]

I have done a few live videos working with this pattern that may he of assistance to you

[@joycepelegrina7525]

Thank you for the video. You make such beautiful designs!

Love it!

Thank you

[@VernaBradshaw]

I love it but way above my capabilities!

[@TheAddiQueen]

I'm sure you could do it ❤

[@fannyrose5512]

Très jolie travail, c'est fou ce que l'on peut faire avec cette machine, waouh respect pour votre créativité 🤗j'ai une question il y a t il un entretien particulier à faire sur cette machine que le père Noël va bientôt m'apporter?

[@TheAddiQueen]

It depends. Sometimes, people oil their machines, but that isn't an everyday chore. They are pretty easy to keep and maintain.

[@1wildwackywoman]

Looks great!

[@TheAddiQueen]

Thank you so much

[@craftycaz]

So cute looks fabulous

[@TheAddiQueen]

Thanks ❤

[@CMeyer-ut3dd]

Very cute! Nicely done.

[@TheAddiQueen]

Thank you

[@my2trinkets]

Can you please tell me how I can make this in to a 50/50 ear warmer with a stripe placed on the plaid side?

[@djcropat3473]

Great hat. Could you do a tartan design on your machine?

[@TheAddiQueen]

Hmm, I'm not too sure. You may be able to make onr using duplicate stitching

[@timaprincess973]

creative! beautiful.. very nice

[@Nik-ko9eq]

This is so COOL!!!!

[@felicityhall1595]

What row counts would you suggest for a child's version of this? My girls are wanting me to make them hats like this. I've tried making them hats on my 40 before and they're just a little too tight so I'm already figuring it's going to have to be on the 48 anyway I'm just unsure of how many rows of inside color and how many rows of pattern. They're a little over 6 years old if that helps.

[@silviadossantosbrito4717]

💯👍Tolle Idee diese Mütze 🐈Und 🧶🤭

[@denisesp5684]

very nice! thank you for the video

[@tiffinimyers4056]

I love your pattern! I've used it to make my own beanie and love it. However, I tried to make one doing 4 stitches by 4 rows and it didn't work out the same. When I took it off the machine it was all spread out. Was wondering if maybe the 4 stitches was to much or if there was anything else I should have adjusted?

[@TheAddiQueen]

It could have been too much, either that or your tension was too lose

[@RocLobo358]

Because of the curved format you lose tension in the yarn if the yarn behind has to stretch too far on the curve You can pull it very tightly but at some point the long thread will never be tight enough and you're possibly going to damage a needle. You can see her stitches are pretty loose and will look messy in some yarns and the stitches will be uneven.

[@arlenedevroy1110]

Seems like it would be easier to just knit by hand with regular needles.

[@TheAddiQueen]

That may be true. Just sharing this pattern for those who want to do this particular technique on the knitting machine.

[@izitmoi3036]

Very nice

[@lesliegreiff6415]

I like this. I wonder if ther is a way to knit the lining then transfer to knitting needles for the fair isle. I could do it a lot faster.

[@TheAddiQueen]

You could using "waste yarn" that way your work doesn't unravel while you transfer to your needles

[@reeda5390]

I tried to recreate this technique but I'm having a lot of trouble with it! I've only used two colors so that may be the problem? I keep ending up with ladder like spaces between my checks. It's like the different colors aren't connected. Do you have any idea what I might be doing wrong?

[@TheAddiQueen]

It sounds like tension is your issue. The spaces show up because the yarn isn't tight enough

[@reeda5390]

@@TheAddiQueen I thought that might be the case! But when I made my second hat I pulled as tightly as possible but still had the same problem 🤔 is there anything else at all you can think of that I might be doing wrong?

[@TheAddiQueen]

Do you have Facebook? I could give you better advice if I had a visual

[@tonyoliver4920]

Wouldn’t it be easier to do the whole thing in white and use a specialist tartan fabric dye. The stuff they use for traditional Scottish Kilts is really expensive but if it’s only for a hat it might be economical. FYI: a kilt is 4-13 yards of fabric, 18-36 inches wide

[@TheAddiQueen]

While that may sound easier, doing fair isle does have advantages. A hat completed like this will be thicker and warmer. Also, dye can get to be messy and a lot of people may not have access to it. Completing a hat like this also keeps the costs of production to a minimum

[@tonyoliver4920]

@@TheAddiQueen remember I said I’d post a joke… 😋😝 Have you ever seen striped paint? The colours would mix 😂 Got you!! 😁

[@josephinefox4535]

Can you post the pattern?😊

[@cassandradaniels9024]

Do you know how to cast on letters in your hat on your knitten machine I want to learn how to do that if you have time can you show me on a hat for a video

[@TheAddiQueen]

For that i would do a duplicate stitch. Fair isle can get kind of ugly depending on what you're trying to accomplish

This would be quicker knitting on a set or circular pins....

Just putting the pattern out there for those who don't knit traditionally ❤️
