This was the best decrease/increase sentro knitting tutorial I’ve seen with clear explanations, simple steps, and close enough angles. Thank you so much!
I’m so glad you posted this, just in time for my first project with increases. Other methods I have tried just don’t produce a good result for me without a lot of frustration. The solution is so simple and elegant, I’m kicking myself that I didn’t just figure it out myself! Thank you!
Hi Emily. I love the simplicity of the "live" decrease! I’ve wanted to make a vest and this seems to be the answer for the arm hole and the neckline! Thank you again for your wonderful tutorials. Will be watching them over and over again I’m sure before I get the point🤓.
@@Helens.crochet389 thanks. My next video will be a corset type top where I show how to do more advanced decreases for steeper necklines and armholes so watch this space!!
@@emilysmith2784 I will be watching for it Emily. My earlier attempts have been disappointing. But with your help I’m sure I’ll get it! I cannot thank you enough for all the tips and tricks you have shown me in your videos. I appreciate your time and effort that you take for us(especially me)
Thanks so much for this, I've been trying to find a tutorial like this for ages. I love that you just get straight in to the technique, it makes it such a useful reference video.
Thanks, I was curious how this was done. Very much like a straight bed knitting machine. I have an Addi machine on its way to me and I always like to get to know how it all works before I receive a new gadget. I would have loved to buy a straight bed knitting machine, I had two years ago, but finances dictate so I am looking forward to my circular machine.
I am the same. I’d love a flat bed but the price difference between those and the circular ones is so vast. I am thinking about making my own flat bed machine. Now I understand the mechanics of it 😂
@@emilysmith2784 Yes, I have to say, I prefer the metal latch hooks on the flat bed machine rather than the plastic hooks on the Addi and it is a whole lot easier and quicker to increase or decrease. I could buy a second hand flatbed machine but I haven't enough room for one. They do take up a lot of space and need to be kept up rather than put away each time which takes ages. That would take away time in which I could be knitting.
That sounds like a great idea. Good luck. I made a Viking hood once which was a lot of fun. ruclips.net/video/qAXfOSXIcho/видео.htmlsi=cNTsQbPf1mRICjaT
I’ve never tried but I imagine if you do an infront and behind cast on at the end of a row you can add as many stitches as you like. What are you making?
@@emilysmith2784 I'll try! Thanks for your response! I want to make a trouser with a proper crotch curve, then I'll be needing to add like 2 or even 4 stitches at once. Fingers crossed 😅
@@niniolsson you can do a neater decrease by taking off multiple stitches instead of decreasing at the edge but I am too lazy for that technique 😂. Good luck with your trousers.
@@emilysmith2784 thanks for the reply! The video I'm following she's casting off 3 and then putting 2 on one needle and the other on another and I just can't get the hang of it. This way seems so much simpler. Im new to the sentro so I wasn't sure if it mattered how I did it. Thanks!
@@destructivedes I think I know the video you mean, if it’s the yay for yarn video. I just didn’t see the point in complicating things, I guess it depends if you are a knitter or not. When doing by hand you wouldn’t decrease on the edge but by machine I think it’s fine. I’m all about the easy life 😂
@@emilysmith2784 yessss!! 🙌🏼 It's Creative yarn by fab I believe, her v neck sweater. Just tried your methods and it's perfect lol. Thanks again so much!
Where on the machine did u start? In the middle? I don't see the white needle and it makes me wonder if it works better when ur away from the last needle?
You can start anywhere when doing a flat panel. I like to start at a different point on the machine so I don’t wear down the starting needles. I use my machine a lot though so if it’s not a concern then start at one if that’s easier for you.

Yep, it makes sense. Thank you for that 🌹❣️

@@lunasmum6869 that’s a very good point. Not sure I’d have the space for one either.
Awesome video tysm!! Needing to make these sorts of panels for a cloak haha

Hi Emily, can you do a tutorial on how to knit a v-neck camisole using the Sentro? 🙏❤
Sure. I will add it to my list 😊
V neck camisole video is up now. Thank you for the suggestion.

Thank you for this video.
Thanks for watching
Is there a way to decrease by a few needles in the same row?
@@Th3odora You could probs do 2 either side but any more than that and you may have to take it off the machine and put it back on
@@emilysmith2784 ah ok. Thank you!
Omg this is amazing, thank you! But, there's a way to add more than 1 at a time?

@@emilysmith2784 I know I could decrease, but honestly I don't like much how it looks, increasing looks neater 🤭
@@niniolsson you can do a neater decrease by taking off multiple stitches instead of decreasing at the edge but I am too lazy for that technique 😂. Good luck with your trousers.
@@emilysmith2784 how do you decrease more than one stitch at a time?
Buenas tardes, me podría dar algún tip para que las orillas queden así de perfectas, e tenido muchos dolores de cabeza por eso...gracias!!!
Be sure to give your yarn a little tug after knitting the edge stitch. Helps to tighten everything up and look a little neater.
@@emilysmith2784 muchas gracias!!! 🥰🥰
What is the differences in the techniques? Like if I'm making a V neck, does it matter which way I do it?
The decreases are a little tighter and cleaner looking in my opinion but it’s not a really obvious difference.
