This was the third different tutorial I watched, but the first one that didn’t leave me confused. You did a great job of explaining and demonstrating, thank you!

[@tinawindham6958]

You saved me some time! TY

[@carolfolk4602]

Yours is the clearest video...focused on watching the bumps instead of watching the needles.🎉😊

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Thank you!

[@hookedbycassie0417]

I'm honestly crying because I can't figure out how to make a panel properly! I am so glad I stumbled into this video or else my knitting machine is up for sale. Thank you!

[@amisvega9756]

This is the only video I've found that explains the important bits to get this done right.

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Thank you 😀

[@JoshGrimes-rl3vf]

You are a life saver! I have searched and searched and nobody was explaining why my machine was dropping stitches in the way that it was. Thank you so much.

[@Zoecasady3337]

I was getting so frustrated with the issues of it falling off and everything. Thank you for taking it slow and showing how to do it.

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

You’re welcome 😀

[@u.a.535]

Thank you so much from Germany. Without you I would have thrown Addi out of the window 💖

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

I’m so glad you didn’t throw it out of the window!! Happy to have helped 🥰

[@kanikasingh889]

😅😂

[@scottishamericanrose]

Thanks for gett9ing down to the "knitty-gritty" of panels and helping those of us new to Addi make sense of them. None of the other panel videos give out all the tips for beginners that yours does!!! Thanks again!!!!

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

You’re welcome!

[@notyomomma7194]

I'm so glad yours is the first video that popped up when i googled! I've just gotten my machines for Christmas, and have stuck to tubes, but wanted to try panels, but everyone that I've seen online that's tried has been frustrated by the edges, so I'm so grateful for your pointing out the humps - I never would've been looking at them, and would've given up, too!

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Glad I could help! 😀😀🧶

[@sharonc3038]

I have avoided making panels in the past as I kept losing stitches. This video clearly explains how to create a panel so I am looking forward to being able to create a panel.

[@lynnannerickson135]

This is the best tutorial i have found. My stitches kept falling off the beginning and ends of the rounds. Thanks for such a clear explanation!

[@nat_does_crochet]

this is the best video explaining flat panels; thanks so much.!!

[@stephaniet1237]

I don’t know what you said differently that clicked with me but this is the first time I’ve been able to make a panel without dropping stitches, thank you so much, i was going nuts trying to figure it out

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

You’re welcome!

[@angelickiwi493]

The comments are giving me hope, I have watched so many tutorials for MONTHS and I just can't get a panel to save my life. Here's to hoping 🤞🏼

[@Helens.crochet389]

Mine was doing the same thing. I noticed what the end needle was doing across the three empty needles. The stitch comes up and gets all fiddly. I found an answer to some of the problem, at least it worked for me. Instead of leaving the three needles empty I left 4 needles empty.

[@Helens.crochet389]

Thank you for another great tutorial. The clarity of your instructions is amazing.

[@BobSlade-s9h]

So well and simply explained. Many of these videos are made in America and I don’t wish to knock them but they seem to be made by overexcited shrill voiced people who are obviously very experienced but it tends to put you off listening and just watching instead. Thank you.

[@kathrynrobinson7803]

THANK YOU! I couldn't figure out why I was losing stitches at the end.

[@emilyfye1699]

I've watched more than i'd like to admit on how to flat pannel with my Addi i've had for 5 years. This is the first true tutorial that has made sense. Thank you.

[@knotGivingAstitch]

This tutorial was amazing thank you so much! I was so afraid to try panels but now I feel perfectly comfortable thanks to you. Awesome job!

[@theimperfectcrafterny]

Thank you. I've watched so many videos yours has the only one that makes sense

[@MissTraee]

Im literally in class rn but I’ve tried my machine so many times and always get the edges rough but this seems soooo doable i can’t wait to get home and try! Thanks for sharing !!!

[@neepavyas5337]

That was an amazingly awesome tutorial 😊. I watched it the first time and loved it and totally understood it. Thanks

[@franceseverette-gayther8678]

Thank you so much for this tutorial! I just got a Sentro knitting machine a few days ago.

[@moracepatricia7961]

Merci merci et merci , j'en ai vu des tutos mais je n'y arrivais pas et là miracle je sais pourquoi. Merci énormément🥰🥰

[@marygilder499]

Thanks for this tutorial, now I feel comfortable trying the flat panel. You made it less confusing to follow. I really enjoy all your tutorials.

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Thank you! 🧶😀

[@jodiebyramdavies]

Thank you! Very informative and so clearly explained, been having trouble understanding what is happening when I’m trying the panel knitting and and I couldn’t find a video explaining where the yarn needs to be in order to not loose those end stitches

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Glad it helped! 🧶😀

[@michellebarnes7596]

Absolute best explanation on earth. Thank you

[@c.brooks3013]

Best flat panel video I've seen so far!! Thank you!

[@ranash260]

I've had my Sentro for over a year. This is the first helpful video I've found. Thank you!!!

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

You’re welcome :)

[@sharinance3395]

Your comment on make sure the yarn is under the pin at each in was the key to success! Thanks

[@carolhaenen7074]

Thanks, video is clear and concise. Can't wait to start. Will make panels into rugs for our oldies😁

[@jean-jn3nq]

Thank you so much for this incredibly helpful video!!! ☺️ I now feel confident to make a panel and not a tube 😉

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

🥳🥳🥳

[@lovelylife333cl7]

Idk why I've put off getting one i just thought it was confusing but now I'm ready to make my daughter love this lol

[@almostlaurel]

This tutorial answered all of my questions and concerns about knitting panels. Thank you!

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

You’re welcome! 🥰

[@IAMdevilwomen]

I've had my sentro for going on 3 years and have avoided flat panels because I kept drooping stitches, it annoyed my OCD so bad I put it in the closet and haven't touched it, now I think I'll try again, I can hand knit, loom knit, but this thing annoyed the holy crap out of me because the videos I kept finding were confusing to me, thank you for making this video and going so slow, I have a TBI and memory loss so I tend to learn very slow, but once it's in my brain, if I keep doing it it'll stick because my memory is messed up, thank you again

[@yeruvasrimounika8226]

Very clearly explained in less time thank you

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Thank you 🧶😀

[@Susan-yb3hh]

Wow, excellent instruction with the video. You are a natural born teacher. I am so happy to have found you and your channel! Thanks

It’s a pleasure! 🥰

[@nikifleck6704]

Amazing teacher! Thank you. Your videos are perfection. I finally know how to use the knitting machine

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Thank you so much! You have no idea how much feedback like this makes my day 😀

[@taylorkirsh2226]

Girlllll I appreciate you so much for this. Thank you!!

You are so welcome!

[@carolmeinhardt8227]

Really enjoyed this tutorial on today panel addi knitting. I've really been wanting to make a shawl. I'm going to give it a go tonight. Thanks so much. Going now to check out your crochet bind of video.

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

The bind off video is still in the works I’m afraid 🤭

[@rosalitzer9009]

This is a brilliant tutorial and your camera setting is just perfect! Thank you so much from Germany 🙋🏻‍♀️

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

It’s an absolute pleasure! 🥰

[@tirellisado6551]

great video! I've watched several videos, none of them are so clear like this one, great job!

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Thank you!

[@ChristianaSchoolman]

Best video I've seen!! Your explanation is amazing

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Thank you so much :)

[@kcfield601]

What a wonderful tutorial. Thank you very much for your time.

[@sassegranny4700]

Very good, well done to you. I am viewing this video Sunday, June 05, 2022. Glad I kept looking.

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

🥰🥰

[@sarahsmall2199]

Brilliant! Best video on flat panels I have watched. I get it now!

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Thank you!

[@seeker9922]

Thank you for the video :) keep up the good work. I'm so new in this. How can I knit panels with scrap yarn so that the edges don't fold and can stay flat ? I'd like to knit 2 panels with 28 needles each and then knit them together but so that u don't see place where they are knitted together. Anyone have any advice on how to do that too?

[@debbietucker9812]

Thank you so much for your video 👏👏👏 It was great! 😃 Can't wait to try it out! 😁

[@shadowhenge7118]

Love the color selections. Thanks for the tutorial.

[@ocracupuncture6583]

Thank you for this tutorial. I got a Sentro a month ago but I don’t dare using flat mode for scarves as the sides curl. Any trick I could use so the sides are flat? Thank you from France.

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Stockinette stitch will always naturally curl, as there’s no way of doing another stitch along the edges with these machines you’d need to either crochet an edge on afterwards or pick up and hand knit some stitches

[@laurah5623]

This was so helpful! Thank you!

[@sinat7055]

Excellent video. Thank you.

[@hopechekwube5629]

Wow! So nice

[@paularead4596]

Thanks for this. Your tutorials are so well explained and easy to follow xx

[@ladysarahs77]

Thank you I’m going to try this in the morning what can you make with panels x

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

You can make blankets, baby bonnets, seamed hats (if you need them smaller than 46 pins for instance). I’ve also seen people make clothing by seaming panels :)

[@Awatef_Hasan]

That was very helpful thank you 🙏🏻

[@maureenrees636]

Best tutorial.

[@selikutame7132]

you’re a star wtf

[@RaySahelianMD]

I would love to make a flat panel blanket for my grands in Hawaii, but get stumped on how to connect the panels without a seam! Do you have a video tutorial on it by chance?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Hi, I don’t currently have a video no, but if you search how to mattress stitch panels together I’m sure you’ll find a good one :)

[@danimcgrani]

Super helpful. Thank you so much❤

[@margaretwojak]

Thank you looks Great

[@crochetingaroundnewzealand]

Thank you. Could I just add a new colour and keep going, making it longer but lots of colours?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Yes 🥰

[@Margo1968]

Great video! Thank you 😊

[@susansays5627]

Hello - thanks for this. I followed your video, and I'm now at the point where you say you say that the panel will need to be finished off but that you'll do that in anther video. I looked through your knitting machine tutorial, but I can't find it. Can you point me in the right direction?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

I actually never ended up making another video to cover it but the technique you need to join flat panels is Mattress Stitch :)

[@susansays5627]

@@SnufflebeanYarn Thanks for that, but it isn't joining them together that I need - it's how to make the ends look neater. The cast off end always looks sloppy and loose. I've started just putting them back on to knitting needles and just casting them off the traditional way, but there are still problems with that way too. When I saw you mention there werer a few options, I thought I might be able to find a good one, as so far I'm not really happy with the way they end up.. Thanks anyway :)

[@RoamingwithRover]

Do you know how wide the panel is if you use all the pins? Thanks!

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

I'm afraid I don't know off the top of my head.

[@deleahcortes3027]

I wish had found your video first it would have saved me alot of pulling of my hair out lol

[@p.weezkelzy4719]

What is a link too or title or a video for joining these finished panels together, please?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

I would search something like how to seam flat panels

[@llhh2752]

Z can you adjust the stitches? Where the black hook is?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

I’m not sure what you mean?

[@kirstenkobrin4281]

Another fab video :))

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Thank you!

[@carolynwilliams9703]

what if you drop a stitch while doing the flat panel, can you fix it while your work is on the machine or wait until you take it off?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

You could fix it in a similar way to when you fix a tube.

[@styleandbaeutystuff]

if you would like the panels to be smaller with less pinns is there a method for that?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Same method just cast on less pins :)

[@KuromiLover222]

So the problem I have is, you know the part where you had to use that hook to drag the yarn back down because it wasn’t caught onto the thing @ 6:50? Well I keep having to pull it down after ever round I do and it’s super annoying. How do I stop it from doing that?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

You can attach a weight of some sort to the bottom of your work to help give a bit of weight to it so it hangs down better and stays on the hooks.

[@KuromiLover222]

@@SnufflebeanYarn omg thank you so much!

[@mrs2928]

Hello, I'm kinda new to the addi knitting machine, but whenever i try to do the flat panel the left needle works fine but the right needle is holding on to all the stitches which after a while it looks all bunched up, do i need to change the needle out?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Without seeing I’m now really sure what’s happening. there is a great group on Fb called knitting machine queens, if you post a photo there then I’m sure you’ll get great advice.

[@carolfletcher7361]

Thanks

[@llhh2752]

How do you flatten out the finished product?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

You would need to block it 🙂

[@RobinSueWho]

I just got a machine but don't know what I'd use a flat panel for. What can I make with a flat panel? All tutorial videos only show how to make the flat panel but then nothing on how to use that panel. Any help is appreciated.

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

There’s an amazing group called knitting machine queens on Facebook that’s full of ideas on how to use the machine :)

[@RobinSueWho]

@@SnufflebeanYarn ooh thank you. I'll check them out!

[@josettenouwen9978]

@Snuffelbean Yarn mag ik vragen hoeveel cm dit plat stuk breiwerk heeft aub?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

I can’t remember, I’m sorry.

[@CJ-by3zw]

I’ve been trying for 2 days to make a panel but I either drop stitches at the beginning or as I get through the work the stitches in the beginning start gathering, please can you help me figure it out? I think I’ve invented new swear words since it started happening 😂

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Hi! I know this is a really boring answer but it really is a matter of practice makes perfect. It took me a while to master it too :)

[@k9doctor898]

Have you dealt with this issue where the space between 10 and 11 comes out larger, basically a ladder and its very obvious. I've looked through it all and nothing but I'm scared to open it up. Does anyone else have this issue?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

I haven’t come across this issue myself no, as long as I keep my tension consistent all the spacing stays the same

[@bebabohorc6306]

[@polyzooz]

Ahh I've been trying for 2 hours I can't do it :(

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

It can be a tricky technique to master for definite, keep going and I’m sure you’ll crack it 😊

[@rosaabere8798]

How much is the machi miss

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

the Addi is about £150, sentro machines are cheaper :)

[@ioanasandu8718]

O masina de tricotat se poate

[@barbarabarber8064]

Yea bought the sentro knitting mechine will not make flat panels

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Oh no! It should definitely make them in the same way that the Addi does
