Easy Cinched Headband - No Waste Yarn Needed! | Circular Knitting Machine Tutorial

[@TheLaveda]

I like that it lays flat. Excellent method!

[@nikkix6972]

Thank you! Quite happy with my first attempt (think waste yarn is easier but pleased with the effort to learn and grow!)

[@kimdunlap8050]

I did three headbands with the two different colors. Was a great experience I used my 48 SENTRO knitting machine

[@ladysarahs77]

Thank for this I think I prefer this method better I’m going to whip these for my mum she has lost her hair to cancer and keep her warm these be ideal for her thank you x

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

I’m so happy to help you find a cosy headband you like. I hope your mum finds them cosy and warm. X

[@ladysarahs77]

Thank you i absolutely love your channel x

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

*blushes* thank you!

[@Burglar-King]

That’s so sweet. She is lucky you are there for her. Big hugs all round. I’m a cancer survivor and the little things mean everything xx

[@Bekkmyster]

I love the idea...but its still easier to use scrap/waste yarn so i can see those loops easy.

[@kaypryor2668]

Thank you for making this video. I made one today...my first project on my new 32 needle machine. I had trouble with snagging on my first join when I tried to cinch it up, so I undid all of my joining and started over. The second time I was able to cinch the ends together more evenly. It's a perfect fit and I'm very pleased with it!

[@littlesammyf7380]

My biggest challenge when I tried was seeing the stitches but am going to have another go following your tutorial xx

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Let me know how you get on!

[@tracyhenwood1948]

Thank you so much I have just got a machine so this and the cast in and off has been so helpful as I have not been able to find many beginner ones I will look at your others too . I really hope that you make many more for these machines as would be great and so helpful . I just don’t know where to go or look for tutorial like this so maybe if you can do a series of patterns would be amazing many thanks ❤❤

[@moondive4ever]

Brilliant video! Thank you for making this!

[@landracriswell437]

These are beautiful to make with bright neon colors! I used 86 rounds for adults and 80 for children..

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Yay! That’s great to hear 🥰

[@teresamonday81]

Thank you! I love using waste yarn but this is an excellent alternative and tutorial.

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Thank you!

[@kathywelch8722]

That’s a pretty headband. Very simple pattern.

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Thanks! It’s definitely a less bulky option than the twisted headband

[@MamaLagunaFrog3]

Thank you so much ❤. .You're such a great teacher. It's nice to know that I don't need to use waste yarn. Very understandable video. 👍👍

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

You’re welcome! Happy knitting! 🧶😀

[@nocerous6191]

As a knitter this appears to be the easiest way to join the ends. Thank you. I shall give it a whirl :-)

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Hope it works for you too!

[@craftycaz]

Great alternative method a nice sleek finish

[@1of2shoes]

I love how the front looks so elegant. Very doable. Thanks!

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

It’s a pleasure!

[@Rennagayle]

I like the idea of this method so much better than the way I’ve been cinching mine, which feels somewhat bulky at the cinch. This doesn’t appear to be bulky there at all. I’m anxious to try it, thanks for sharing!

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Yay!

[@knotGivingAstitch]

Wow I love this method thank you so much. I was having such a hard time with other ways and this is just super simple but looks so good. You rock!

[@taranoel7990]

Thank you !! I really like how clean this cinching method is. 😀👍💜 Looing forward to more of your videos !

[@cassandraperkins8763]

WOW! THIS IS THE BEST METHOD! THANK YOU!

Thank you! 😊

[@twinsgran]

My machine arrived yesterday so I searched for a video to help me. This is so easy to follow. I'm using the yarn that came with the machine. Can't wait to see if it turns out okay. x

[@twinsgran]

Oh dear, I turned too far when doing the last part and dropped a stitch. Couldn't pick it up so had to undo it all! lol

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Oh no!! Hope you managed to sort it

[@kerrytaylor6310]

Ooh I like this method. Thank you so much 💛

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

[@krystal4405]

Def my go to now! I love this!

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Thank you!

[@kimberleypierce7981]

Thank you! I had a tube completely done yesterday and the waste yarn popped out of the feeder slot and my whole work was wasted. I tried to save it but lost my stitches too fast. Can't wait to try this method!!

[@phyllishardy8153]

I really like this way 😊

Thank you! 🥰

[@charlieandzoelawsonshawn2241]

Love this! Looks like something I may be able to do soon. Just got my Addi and only 1 hat completed so far. Loving it though! I love that no crochet is needed. I’m not good at that.

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

You’ll be surprised how quickly you learn new things with a little bit of practice 😀

[@pietastrid]

that is very easy thank you

Thank you been pulling my hair out trying to figure this out today

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Happy to help!

[@sabrinahewick1224]

Great video!!! where can I find the link on how to cinch the headband together...I have never tried it before..Thank you

[@kirstenkobrin4281]

Another fab video :)). I know knitting machines get on with certian typres of yarn. What works for one doesnt always work for another. What is your favourite go-to yarn?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

I haven't found too many yarns that my machine hates, but my go-to plain yarn is definitely Paintbox Aran yarn. I wish it wasn't a Lovecrafts own brand so I could stock it myself(!) For Variegated yarns I love the Sirdar Jewelspun and the Red Heart Stripes (I know lots of people struggle with this yarn but I have minimal issues) Hope this helps! Laurelin :-)

[@kirstenkobrin4281]

@@SnufflebeanYarn Paintbox is lovely, just a shame when colours are always out of stock and stylecraft aran is limited! Try caron latte cakes :))

[@sandydesaulniers9698]

Thank you! I'll have to try this method as I get a big knot with twisted method. Which machine do you have?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

It’s just a generic 40 pin machine I got from Amazon, aside from the colour it’s identical to a sentro 😀

[@jeanniel.holder3310]

🎉

[@dianeky617]

I have a question, why only 43 rows with Color A but 86 rows with Color B? Both halves look the same when laid out flat. I’m trying this tomorrow. I like the idea of no waste yarn. Love your videos.

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

I didn’t zero the counter - so I did up to 43 with one colour and then up to 86 with the second. 43 rows of each colour 🙂

[@dianeky617]

@@SnufflebeanYarn lol of corse, silly me 🤣

[@elizabethbrignoni7448]

Thank you, it’s always nice to have different ways and looks. I always have to do 55 each color for it to fit adult head. I don’t know why. My yarn tension is loose. When I use knitting needles you tend to have to go higher also. Maybe my machine knows this. Lol I can’t explain it. I’m trying different yarns to see but so far still the same. Any suggestions? I have 46 pin Addi n hv had it a week now.

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Everyone’s individual tension is different, so their row count will be too. If 55 rows per colour is where you need to be then embrace it and have fun making those headbands! 😀

[@chrissy_matia]

what size knitting machine are you using and what size head will this fit kids, adult? and if I use a bigger machine then yours will it make it bigger on the head because I'm looking to make 1 for a child and 1 for me an adult, thank you for this tutorial

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

The size of the machine defines the width of the headband, to make it smaller or bigger you adjust the tube length. This tutorial is for an adults headband, for a child you would work less rows. I’m using a 40pin machine

[@saturenagail7781]

Love the color of your knitting machine, can you share where you purchased it please 💕

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

It’s from Amazon, it’s called Knitting Studio ☺️

[@FireFightersMoM]

Can you twist this and join it? Thank you for the video

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

You could, but I'm not sure how well it would work, I'd worry it would be quite bulky.

[@kashhause6362]

Can you do a video on a reversible beanie on the machine?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Sure, although you could do my faux brim beanie and just work 40 rows of colour, 28 rows of brim, and then another 48 of another colour. That would make it reversible :)

[@kashhause6362]

@@SnufflebeanYarn okay thank you. I’m new so I have no idea lol I haven’t even gotten my machine yet. But I love beanies so why not make them lol

[@tracyforney7199]

Love this video. Where did you get your machine?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Amazon 😊

[@melaniekopeinig7571]

Is 42 cm headband length enough for an adult? How many rows did you make of each color? Can you also show one for men?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

42cm is definitely long enough for an adult :) If I remember right I worked 86 rows total, so 43 for each colour.

[@jennaatkins5885]

How many rows would you do for a child’s size age 6-12 ? Thanks x

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Hi, I haven’t made a child’s one in afraid so I couldn’t comment with certainty. Maybe 75 rows?

[@Yolandita_C]

What would be the best yarn for the sentro 48 needles.. I’m having so much trouble with dropped stitches no matter the tension.. so many things I want to do and I feel lost…

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Where in the world are you based? I like to use Paintbox Aran weight yarn, it’s a soft yarn and glides through my machine. I did find though that practice really does make perfect, I had stopped stitches when I first started and I think it was tension related as I learnt to use my machine. The group “knitting machine queens” on Facebook is full of people who love to help newbies learn :-)

[@littlejshomestead2502]

My yarn tails came out of my head band after washing and wearing it. I hid them between the layers. How can I prevent this?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

You could cut them a little shorter? So they can’t work their way outside

[@lozaloza882]

Thanks for this 🌹 How many rows?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

It depends on your tension but probably between 85-90 :)

[@kristinascott-oliver7056]

Can I ask about the tension on where you had it? 1, 2 or 3rd?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Hi! I hand tension my yarn rather than using the tension guide so I can’t answer that I’m afraid.

[@Sagerino]

Are you able to make child and adult sizes with this one machine?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

The 40 pin machine is really best for baby beanies and headbands. For adult and child beanies you need a 46 or 48 pin ☺️

[@ariannamanigault403]

How would you go about putting a bow middle on it 🤔

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

You could make a bow using a 22pin machine and sew it on? Or crochet one and sew it on?

[@sheilakraus7318]

How to use this pattern on a 22 addi?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

The method would be identical, you’d just end up with a slimmer headband

[@DeniseSantos1975]

How many ranks does this job have?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Ranks?

[@jamiealsteen5]

Oh where did you get your machine?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

From amazon, I’ve linked it in the description here ☺️

[@darlenechase7385]

What size machine are you using…???

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

A 40 pin machine :)

[@darlenechase7385]

Can you make it on a 48

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

You can, it will just be deeper as the 48 pin makes a wider tuber

[@sineadkeogh6335]

If its in the comments? I apologise, but what type of machine is that?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

It’s a 40 pin circular knitting machine

[@sineadkeogh6335]

@@SnufflebeanYarn not an addi or sentro? The colour is lovely.

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

I can’t remember the brand offhand but it’s from amazon, it’s basically the same as a sentro 40 pin but a different colour
