Thanks for this video, i hand knit my beanies and want to make surenwhen I put patches on, I don't ruin them. Going to try this method

[@esentl]

You are so welcome! Thanks for watching, I also made an updated video last week check that one out kzbin.info/www/bejne/gZqUZGmwebibi5o

[@zrc101]

Wow! Thanks a lot for this. I used to shy away from beanies cuz we'd scorch them and flatten them Just ran an order of Carhartt with faux leather patches thanks to this video well worth the $60 investment in a silicone pad and proper pressure. Thank you

[@esentl]

If you need custom engraved leather or leatherette patches just reach out to me as we now offer that at great pricing

[@RVS214]

Badass intro and music...loved it

[@esentl]

thanks

[@edgargarcia5580]

your channel is great I'm a fan for-sure!

[@esentl]

Thanks Edgar its comments like yours that keep me motivated

[@theknausexperience7671]

Just ordered my silicone cover, hopefully that solves my problems, Thank you for the tips and video!

[@esentl]

Good luck!

[@TSFNH]

very helpful. I was using my hat press. I think this is way better. the pressure is key :)

[@esentl]

a silicone mat help also

[@tinaharlow4508]

When adjusting the pressure on the press. You were dialing to 2. Would you say that is light pressure? My press only has a knob no kind of number gauge

[@esentl]

yes that is light pressure, look into my latest heat press video on the transpro plus that might be something youll want to get asap it has a digital pressure readout system and is super affordable @@tinaharlow4508

[@juanramirez166]

Thanks for the tutorials that you do short and to the point. Excellent work. Subscribed.👍👍👍

[@esentl]

Thanks for the sub!

[@HeidiC51]

Did you ever do the headband or the fuzzy lined beanies? I looked through your videos; I didn't see it, but maybe I'm missing it. Just ordered a bunch of faux leather patches and can't wait to try them out :)

[@esentl]

no only slouch beanies and standard cuff beanies, but should be same concept, practice makes perfect you can also order custom patches on my website as well products to laser your own patches, esentlprintsupply.com

[@kimfella4770]

Caldwell's is non-responsive. Can you suggest another source for leather patches?

[@esentl]

yes Me contact me on IG please

[@RealDustyChandler]

Have you ever done beanies and leather patches using your 360iq hat press? I have the hat press but not the shirt press. A lot of people are asking me about beanies...if I can't use my hat press, I may have to sew them on the beanies. Thanks bud.

[@esentl]

I have done beanies with the 360 IQ you still have to use the silcone mat to protect the beanie, me personally I get better results using a heat press with the silicone mat, as the 360 IQ can tend to leave a scorch box sometimes...practice makes perfect

[@kenstrickbine]

what heat press you using? and where are you sourcing your silicone mats​ and beanies specifically the blue as I like that style @@esentl PS love what your brand stands for.

[@wheelhouseshelbymt9098]

Would the thin rubber pads I have for sublimation work the same as silicone, or is silicone better for this purpose?

[@esentl]

silicone is better imo it absorbs heat better and evenly

[@alexgoff2064]

Thank u for the video great work.👍

[@esentl]

No problem 👍

[@saramajury1247]

Where do you find your slouchy beanie

[@esentl]

otto cap has em

[@jsinope2786]

You need to prestretch your knits when you press so the knit doesn’t pucker when you wear it.

[@esentl]

Thanks for the tip

[@ringtecatlanta1547]

I press my beanies on the hat press…so I have less material taking heat- no scorching

[@esentl]

using the silicone mat you wont scorch any beanie at all, some hat presses will scorch beanie fibers and leave a press box but if its working for you then that's awesome

[@layneyost7393]

How do you get them to stay on during washing in the wash machine?

[@esentl]

that sounds more like an adhesive issue

[@victoriapitsakis9104]

Hey there, thanks for sharing your vid. Can I ask, are the beanies you're pressing acrylic? I've got an order for acrylic beanies to heat press and just making sure I dont commit to a product that will not be suitable for heat pressing. Thanks!

[@victoriapitsakis9104]

Also, have you used teflon sheet instead of the silicone - would this be suitable or not thick enough to protect from scorching?

[@esentl]

I would not use teflon it will scorch it

[@esentl]

yes my beanies in this video are acrylic, but practice makes perfect make sure you adjust everything based on your equipment

[@TheDjdanny2010]

Where do you buy the beanies my friend

[@esentl]

these are from Decky direct wholesale

[@81artmonk]

I'm using 100% Acrylic and 310 for the temp. However, my beanies are being crushed and flattened out like a pancake. How do I stop that? Should I lower the temp, and use little to no pressure for a longer period of time to stop the beanies from being crushed and ruined?

[@esentl]

yes pressure if what flattens things like a pancake

[@SwagQueen360]

@@esentl What if you don't have a press that allows you to adjust pressure like me? I use a HTVRONT Auto Heat Press Machine for T-Shirts but want to do some beanies

[@vanessajoseph9709]

I’ve tried hardly no pressure 325 for 40 sec. With silicone sheet . Still beanie is flat and stretched out….any ideas

[@esentl]

what brand press are you using? lighter pressure

[@vanessajoseph9709]

@@esentl hpn signature 16x24 Dialed all the way down to 3 I usually do 40 for t-shirts

[@vanessajoseph9709]

@ESENTL It’s so low now the patch isn’t adhering

[@annasorrentino9388]

I do not like how they stretch and get flat....I've seen hats without that scenario....What am I doing wrong????

[@esentl]

heat press pressure...lighten it up doesnt need to be as aggressive with beanies
