It's Beanie Season!!! 5 Rules when Embroidering Beanies

[@bradleyotto]

That's great information, Never seen the Snab nabit! crazy tool for the box

[@RomeroThreads]

Glad it was helpful!

[@syltoy2745]

your instructions are very clear and the heads-up on the needles is great.

[@constancebell454]

Again, thank you for your knowledge. Always look forward to your videos.

[@coacoa43]

Thanx for sharing. A lot of ur information is helpful. When you have a flatbed embroidery machine no mighty hoop not a lot of tutorials.

[@marianneciovacco8565]

you make that look easy..and I know it isn't. Now I have to knit a hat to try this technique. Nab nabit...OMG

[@Lina90.]

Congratulations on your new truck! I just ordered some mighty hoops I used your code to get free shipping thank you I appreciate it.

[@RomeroThreads]

Thank you, Im sure your going to love your Mighty Hoops.

Glad to know I’m not the only one using tape too

[@itsmeJennaL]

Thank you for all of your wisdom. I have never heard of snag nabbiit but I have personal shirts that I need that for!!!

[@Steven-x3z2l]

Good morning, Romero. I'm new to this and was wonder if there's any way to stitch closer so the material color doesn't show through the stitches?

[@MistyBlueJudah]

I found the beanies on bulk apparel for 3.85 instead of $12 on Amazon 😁yes it’s the same exact beanie.

[@EmuEmi]

May i ask where you purchase your beanies in bulk?

Good video thanks

[@sasseestreasures4563]

Hi, quick question I’m not seen a 70 ballpoint needle for the brother PR 655 that you’re referring to in this video for embroidering on beanies. Can you tell me what I should look for when purchasing this type of needle for my brother 6 needle machine

As always, thank you for your informative and instructive videos. I really appreciate them, and I have learned alot! Could you please tell me where you purchased your beanies?

[@RomeroThreads]

Thank you for the message. I buy my beanies and hats from SSActivewear.

[@TheSugaPlummGoddess]

@@RomeroThreads Thank you! I’ll be sure to check’em out. And although this isn’t the respective video, thanks for the Etsy fee breakdown and the ordering samples videos!!! I have always shied away from Etsy. Using it as a springboard to get myself noticed never crossed my mind🤦🏽‍♀️As for the samples, I began ordering them right away. As always, much gratitude for sharing this knowledge. You are greatly appreciated🙏🏾

[@GregorySoutherland]

what min/max size design is recommended for beanies

[@swansonfinearts]

You said these are your favorite beanies to work with, can you please tell us the name of the company and how to purchase them in bulk? Maybe you could even do a video on how you purchase all your blanks? I would definitely watch and love all your videos. Thank you for putting out so much information. Have a wonderful day and keep making videos!

[@RomeroThreads]

Hello, thank you for the comment. I buy my beanies at SSActivewear. Good thing about SS, is there are no minimums. You do have to have a resale license, and create an account.

[@swansonfinearts]

Awesome, thank you!!! Also, what size ballpoint needle do you use for beanies? I am looking at 70/10 jersey ballpoint. Will that work for beanies? And can I pair that with regular 40wt thread?? Thanks so much, you are very informative and inspirational.

[@allergiesrusdb]

Great tutorial, thanks! I prefer Flex Fit beanies, I’ve found the high quality perfect for my customers! I’d love to hear what your favorite beanies are Romero! Thanks!

[@RomeroThreads]

Thanks for the message. Yes Flex Fit beanies are labeled under the Yupoong brand. Those are my go to beanies, excellent quality.

[@Linneydenise]

Romero what commerical embroidery machine did you decide to go with? I was thinking about the pr1055x, since everything I have is Brother brand, learning the design space and knowing how to work the machine would be easier for me so I just stick with Brother. Happy Thanksgiving

[@nonyabidness1623]

WOW! LOOKS GREAT! SO CAN I order a product from you? I have a design in mind!

[@ImTyzn]

🔥 Video

[@cynthiasmith6527]

So you turn the beanie inside out first, tag in back and then you embroider the design facing you in the opposite side? I always get this confused. Thanks

[@RomeroThreads]

Yes, can be confusing at first. What you can do is wear the beanie correct on your head, and place a piece of tape on the side to be embroidered, write the letter "F". Use that as your reference so when you hoop it, you can confirm the direction of your design. Hope that helps.

[@cynthiasmith6527]

@@RomeroThreads Thank you great suggestion!

[@xxfree2romexx]

How did you choose the center point on the beanie? Is it just a standard measurement from the bottom or does it depend on your design?

[@rlatricehill1805]

I don't have the mighty hoop can I use the hoop came with machine 1010 em Ricoma

[@visifoketi7730]

Thank you for sharing Romero. is the knockdown stitches the same as apply offset. And the knockdown stitches is from the digitizing of the design. I hope you understand what I mean.

[@RomeroThreads]

The knock down stitch is an open cross stitch. I just made a note to myself to make a quick video on how I design in the program. Thanks.

[@JumpShkt]

Hello I wanted to know if you still use these same beanies.? I tried to use the link but they do not appear to be on amazon anymore.

[@sasseestreasures4563]

I have a pretty complicated design that I’m trying to put on these beanies. I’ve had it digitized by two different people and it’s still not stitching out correctly. Do you offer embroidery services that I can send my file to you for you to do it because what’s your do when it’s totally different than what either of the other places have tried and I think that’s why it’s not working.

[@donovanbrathwaite1516]

What beanies do you recommend?

[@FuzeEra]

What is the make and model of your embroider machine?

[@ginacastaneda8044]

Pardon my ignorance, but did you put the beanie inside out?In order to get the lettering, right

[@RomeroThreads]

Yes, inside out. I also place a tape w/ the letter F, to make sure the design is facing correctly.

[@rodneyboyd9596]

I never see ricoma machine listed when trying purchase off hoopmaster.. which company or machine it compatible to the ricoma machine.. thank u for the videos you've helped me so much with ur detailed videos

I enjoy your video and am learning a lot. Thank you for doing it. Do you sell them online?

[@marvgran]

Hi Ever, I want to thank you for the great content and for sharing your knowledge with the rest of us. My wife and I are starting on this embroidery venture, needless to say, we are very greenie and learning a lot. Not only we learn but also saved on the shipping on the mighty hoop started kit and infant setup. Do you have planned to make a video on how to design and digitize the beanie in the computer? I’d be interested to learn about creating the base for the embroidery. Cheers. Thank you for your service!

[@RomeroThreads]

Thank you for the message. Yes, I will make a video setting up the base for the beanies, thanks.

What weight of cutaway do you use on your beanies? 1.5 or 2.5?

[@erickg.7439]

Hello, how far up from the bottom of the beanie should you mark your mid point?

[@RomeroThreads]

You want to go as high as possible. You can print a sample of your artwork and verify before stitching.

Ever, just curious. I went to Amazon following your link to the beanies. How do you make a profit buying $10.00 beanies.

​@RomeroThreads what is the style number of this particular beanie in the video.

[@Titus_5150]

How much would your charge a customer for this design if they provided beanies

[@RomeroThreads]

We don't accept customer blanks, we use Yupoong beanies or any beanies from our vendors. One time, somebody tried to have us embroider on a very cheap beanie material and from there on we said "No Way".

[@suzannetwell2969]

What size is your hoop pls?

[@RomeroThreads]

5.5x5.5 with the freestyle base

[@joev8275]

What knife is that?

[@RomeroThreads]

This is what I use to cut stabilizer: Fiskars Rotary Cutter, Titanium: amzn.to/3I8aFFd

[@markpeterson6627]

This doesn't work for most machines because you would end up sewing the front to the back. You can't just slide the beanie over the hoop without moving the back away from the sewing area

[@RomeroThreads]

Should be good w/ a multi needle machine. Yes, a flat bed single needle is different.
