Wow she’s an amazing artist ❤
yippeee!
🎉 super new channel that inspires me in my work 🎉❤
Thanks Minori love you to❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love it how you take your time to read our comments I wish I could see you irl❤️❤️❤️
OMG! Minori, I can't believe you chose me as your featured artist! I feel so honored and grateful, I am actually in tears and trembling. I've been following you for years by now, I would have never imagined such a gift 🥲🥲🥰🥰 also it's so amazing that you are willing to help your community, you are seriously one of a kind. Thank you so much, you are much loved 🥰🥰🥰🥰
You are an incredible artist, you deserve so much love❤
Your drawings are so cute!
YOUR DRAWINGS ARE SO 🔥
I'm about to go over to your channel and check out your art! I'm very happy for you! What a gift!
You art is absolutley stunning!! Just followed you!🫶🏻💕
The last two toys are a separate yarn craft - Weaving!! An easier way to make the starting threads (the warp) is to wrap the yarn around something that will give the desired length as many times as you need making a big loop of yarns and then cut it. Love your videos!!❤
The second machine is a small version of the typical flat bed knitting machine (what all our mass manufactured knitwear is made on)
Where can I buy the adult version of this and I wouldn't mind buying the toy version 2
@@kendramack7637 flatbed knitting machines are very expensive and have a high learning curve. Do a lot of research and take some in person classes before you buy one
@@kendramack7637your best bet would be to get it second hand, but they also require a specific manual and even repairs, Reddit was of great help for me when I just started and RUclips videos are good for specific techniques. Still they can be really frustrating to use as a beginner and like the other comment said, if you can get in person classes that would be great
The Bond is the adult version of the knitting machine
I learned about the knitting machines and what those look like only couple of years ago and now I feel sad. My granny had a knitting machine and when she died majority of her stuff was donated to charity. If I would have realized then that one if her strange items was a knitting machine I would have asked if I could have it. Those are very expensive and I love to knit.
Lol that Amukawa machine is basically a plastic knitting machine! It's barely a toy! lol that's so cool!! I watch a lot of videos by Engineering Knits here on YT and she uses machines regularly, they work just the same
If you're looking for another machine knitting channel, I really like KnitFactoryImpl. She's a software engineer so her niche is the electronically patterning machines, but she's recently started a series for the LK-150 which is VERY similar to the flatbed knitting toy. She also has a video on how to manually do intarsia (which is the technique you'd use to make that heart pattern).
hi Minori, so glad you’re trying crocheting! a little tip for you - if you get the string from the middle/inside of the yarn ball, it should be easier to pull the yarn (the ball won’t be tumbling all over). try from either edge/side of the ball and use your fingers to kind of look for the yarn end, then just pull from there. hope this helps and happy crocheting! ❤
Wanna add to this, it is easier to do a center pull if you purchase or roll the yarn into a cake. Otherwise be prepared to roll the yarn into a ball when you get close to the end of the skein to avoid knots. Yarn ball makers make the process of rolling yarn into a cake WAY easier, and if youre gonna use multiple skeins on a project you can tie them all together to make one big skein (at least from what Ive seen from cake skein fans, Im personally not a fan of center pull but I see the appeal)
A tip for having to cut multiple strings for anything: Measure half the length you need from the thumb on your left hand to the thumb on your right hand, DONT CUT, wrap it around each thumb in big loops until you have as many as you need, then cut from one thumb. Whatever thumb you count on is the thumb you cut on otherwise youll end up with one half piece. Also really helps if you use a door knob or hook to hang the non-counting/cutting side off before you cut as it puts tension on it.
I was a party store manager and when you need to cut 300 ribbons in one go this makes it way faster. Also if you need a bulk amount of a colour or multiple colours, wrap the strings all at the same time. You need 20 strings in 5 colours? Grab all 5, wrap it 4 times, cut once and youre done.
As someone who was teached crocheting and by my mother I have a special place in my heart for crocheting because it came from a special person❤
Seriously this just proves that the best toys (idk if they should still be called toys bcs they do so much more than just being toys) can be found in Japan I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE THESE FOR MYSELF and I hope you'll dabble into making crochet clothes in the future 🥺🥺
typically for the first and second machines u would use some weights meant for knitting machines, to hold down ur pieces while u work so the worked piece and move out of the way of what's being worked. also, people generally grab some 'waste' yarn, which is yarn that u aren't intending on using for ur final product and it's just meant to cast projects on with so all the mess at the start get worked out with the yarn that won't be a part of the final product and u can remove it after the project is finished. (it doesn't have to be actual discarded or unusable yarn for other things, it just has to be a different, often different colored, yarn just to get knitting machine projects started)
i was actually curious about the second machine bc i hadn't seen a 'toy' version of that type of knitting machine before.
okay the weaving machines are really cute, too! i love the one with cartridges to add different designs ; O ;
Wow the last machine was super impressive! I can't believe it was able to make such complex designs. Also Frieren is also my favorite anime right now 😊
The last 2 machines remind me of the old looms you see in historical videos . I enjoyed this learning journey with you.
They are pretty much the same! Just modern weaving looms
you are actually so talented! crocheting, drawing, felting and now knitting!? amazing!
I’m so proud of you Minori! You crochet has improved so much! Also remember you can frog (unravel) any messed up project and reuse the yarn or keep the messed up projects and use them as stuffing for plushies!
I love how much of a fiber crafter you've become Minori. I feel like your next organization project will need to be an aesthetic yarn wall; a small one made with a bookshelf or a peg board to store all of your newly purchased yarn.
For a yarn bowl, you could make one in a variety of easy crafting ways (like clay or using old storage containers that you decorate and cut a hole in).
I have a tip for knitting and crocheting, pull the yarn from the middle rather than from the outside it will go smoothly. I can't wait to see how your sweater turns out ❤
All of those machines look like so much fun! I've been crocheting since I was a kid and I think you're doing awesome. You've learned so much in such a short amount of time. Your sweater is looking so beautiful! Thank you for sharing!
It helps on any knitting machine to start your rows, whether the round machine, or the flat machine, like the first 2 you used, with "waste" yard. Get 5-10 rows made and going well out of waste yarn, then add the yarn you actually want your project to be made from. It makes sure the project yarn is tight and neat.
Hey Minori !
I love ❤❤ your videos.
Thanks for making such a great content and making me happy.
Best wishes for your future
The last weaving toy - hello kitty designs - I was thinking that If you want, you could add more panels, making it longer - then hand sew a nice flannel type fabric on the back side to hide all the loose threads and use it as a scarf. These toys look super fun! Thanks 🌱🌷🌼 I've had several versions of some of these. I had to be very careful with the circle and the flatbed knitting versions also. You are right, it does take getting used to working with these. Great job!
I love this so much. I'm so happy someone told you about making a shirt/sweater from the top down. I've made 4 shirts that way. You can add details like changing stitch size and patterns. I purchased a loom (it's like the extra manual version of the first product) I had a big circle and made 2 hats. Keep up the good work Minori ❤❤❤❤❤
Omg I love your vids, when I’m sad I watch them and I feel better.Keep the good work up❤
i'm so glad you have decided to start crocheting!! i started about 2 weeks ago and i am actually doing really good and its so much fun!! good luck with your future crochet projects!!
@@xMinori100-wy7hz why r u pretending to be Minori?
Oh those last 2 are weaving looms/hata ori like in Tsuru no Ongaeshi! The 1st one uses punch cards to do the patterns, which is old fashioned computer programming (holes and non-holes = binary 1s and 0s)! (Knitting deals with loops like crochet does)
The last sanrio one was so cute! And this feature was great, the paimon in their style looks adorable 💖 I'm interested in the channel features, and I draw many characters from animes and right now im drawing every pokemon based on requests that I get, which usually the requests come from tiktok or instagram but i accept requests on youtube as well :D I also do animations sometimes, and even tho I like drawing doodle style pokemon from time to time, i also have my better art towards the beginning of my shorts :)
Hey Minori!
Been watching your vids for so long!
Your artwork and vids inspire me!
♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
I wish we had more toys like this in America, pretty much the only knitting/crochet toys are the kits that come with the supplies, great videos minori ^0^ ❤❤
You are so pretty I love you so much I started watching you two years ago and I’m so happy I knew a RUclipsr like you 💟💟+ you helped me practice my English when I knew so little so basically you’re a part of my English learning journey
The amazing results toys can make is really astonishing ❤ love this channel since my childhood ❤❤ it really inspired me to believe in my art thankyou for your hard work you put in each video just so we can all enjoy the video❤❤
the minion one would be perfect for whipping up sleeves!
Minori posted⁉️ LET'S GOOOO‼️💗💗💗
Your videos always make me happy
Hi! I have a flatbed knitting machine and to be able to use it the easiest way to cast is called an e cast, where you loop the yarn on each needle, and after each pass you can push the needles towards you and push the yarn loops back at least for a few rows, it’s a bit more secure and lessens the chance of the stitches falling. You also need to put the weights as soon as possible because the machine will not knit properly if the stitches aren’t pulled down pretty strongly, it takes a while to manage but it’s really cool that you used two colors and got a result! I haven’t been able to use more than one color yet :)
Who has been watching Minori for over 4years
19:38 I LOVEDDD IT!! SO CUTEEE 😭💕
Knowing crochet actually helped me know how to knit which helped me know how to sew which that makes me help to make embroidery. That's alot. 😂❤
I am a crochet designer and a knitter and I am loving this!!
Like the idea behind them. Have wanted to try weaving, as I've seen some beautiful pieces created using that. Thank you for buying these to try and for sharing. Hard work & patience pays off. 🙂
Knitting is more complex them crochet is. I actually met people who didn't even know the difference between the two and I'm like "how dare you" 😂 i do both but I like crochet for making stuff animals and knitting to make blankets and scarfs. Knitting is little hard to do and you have to have patience, I'm rather slow at it but I enjoy it. Crochet on the other hand can be hard for people to figure out as well since it's complex too. I have some friends who ask me "how do you crohet?" and I tell them it's because I just practice and know how to do the stitches. What's fun about it is this crochet channel called Just Vintage Crochet where there are old patterns she does that come from the 1970s and Titanic Era and it's very cool and less complicated then the patterns you see on RUclips nowadays. I recommend you go check her out. Enjoy and keep practicing Minori! ❤
I love how you try to find something positive for each review and give each toy a real chance. Also the first machine for hats takes some time from my understanding you make enough to fold the hat on itself then tie the open ends shut and together I really want one!❤
Thanks Minori✨️ after watching you make that strawbery I started crocheting and now I think I can finally make my own cute stuff.❤
Those toys are legit! Tension is really tough to control or manage in weaving. You could probably knit a sock on the first machine.
I love your videos ❤ and I love crocheting , in process of making a blueberry cow
EVERYONE STOP WHAT YOUR DOING MINORI POSTED 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you for sharing your crochet journey ❤️
Yay for you learning to crochet! I've been crocheting 52 years 😊
all of the machine are super cute. im impressed with how well the first one did and how simple it was. i kinda wanna try knitting now
As a kid my mum had a full size knitting machine like the second one, my mum used to spend hours going back and forth knitting us all jumpers, the only problem was you was limited with the designs as you could only knit striped jumpers or jumpers with square patterns as the machine couldn’t make rounded images, my favourite jumper was pink with a rows of purple square teddy bears all over it lol I loved that jumper.
the second i saw this woman, i immediately felt safe and comfort in her presence. from here on out, i just know she is gonna be my favorite youtuber and inspirer 💗
Hey Minori!! I've been a fan of your channel for a while now and it truly inspired me to start my own channel about crafts! My idea to create this channel came from my own want to have customized keychains, squishy, and stickers! I found a lot of ideas and I thought other people would like them too, so it was a perfect Idea for a youtube channel!
My favorite video on my channel is "How to make squishies" because I am the most proud of it!
Your shoutout will help me a lot in spreading my creativity to other people like me and in the meanwhile, I'll continue to enjoy your videos as always 😊
Btw, I love the last machine's design. Hello Kitty looks so cute!! I can't believe that the machine works by itself!
good luck! maybe you'll be picked!
Ty!
So excited to see a video about knitting and fun tools for it :) I learned to crochet two years ago and just started learning to knit. It is sooo much fun! I hope you're having an awesome day, Minori
Omg I’d love to try some of these!! As a baby crocheter I am definitely inspired. I would love to see more knitting machine toy content or even jewelry making toys content! Keep up the great work as always minori 💗💗 I love your content
編み物シリーズめっちゃ嬉しいです😊
⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ball of yarn tip: Pull a strand of yarn from the middle of the ball (there's probably tutorials on RUclips). You won't necessarily find an end inside easily, but pull out the middle in a clump (also called yarn vom1t), [not too much, but you will find an end] find the end in the clump you just pulled out and your life will be way easier than unraveling from the outside, because you'll be pulling from the middle of the ball and it won't bounce all over the place. Take it from an avid crocheter of Amigurumi, who learnt this tip from her mom, an avid knitter 🥰
Some yarn brands actually indicate which side you'll find an end inside the ball, and its ready to pull.
I've pulled out quite a big clump of yarn from the inside where the ball is rather deflated 😂 But I'd rather work with that than a bouncing ball of yarn.
You can then, even put the ball in a glass jar big enough for it, poke a hole in the centre of the lid, thread the yarn strand you pulled from the middle through the hole, screw the lid back on and pull as you need, and you have an inexpensive yarn bowl...er...jar ❤ and you're recycling 🌍 (if the jar once had food in it) ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Those knitting machines are so adorable
Love your videos!🥰
same!
This was such a fun review but it made me appreciate my knitting needles and crochet hooks 😅 thank you for another great video 😻🩷🧶
With the last machine you can make different pieces and crochet them together as a rug or something ❤
I can't believe how well some of these knitting machines work!! 😍😍
I watch all your videos!! Love your content minori ❤
I watched this 4 times today ! It’s so good the best video I watched
I love knitting. I’ve never used a machine before though. Your top down sweater is looking really good! What cute colors! There’s nothing better than wearing something you made yourself.
Why is your videos soo comforting 😭❤❤❤
If the machine starts moving and rocking, place a towel or teatowel underneath to add friction. We do this in baking to stop bowls from slipping in our hands❤
Oh, if you would like to try weaving, I do a type of weaving called tablet weaving (sometimes called card weaving). It's been documented that archaeologists found unfinished trims from vikings that were perfectly preserved from bogs, up to 1000 years old, with the cards still attached to the stings!
It takes a little bit to get used to, but basically, you have square cards with 4 holes in them (I make my own cards from playing cards). Depending on the pattern, you place the string either through the front or the back of the card, matching the colour of the strings with each hole according to the pattern, and then as you weave, you turn the cards a quarter turn, pass the shuttle through, and turn the cards a quarter turn, and so on. Sometimes you just work all in one direction, while other patterns you turn the cards four times forward, then turn the cards four times backwards (this one is good for creating a mirror-image pattern, like a butterfly, or an oval... I've even made a cupcake pattern like that, too).
I make trims with my tablet weaves, and people can use them to accent their clothing around the neck, sleeves, etc. I've even seen other weavers sew trims together and make them into purses!
Once you get the hang of it, it can be a lot of fun :) I've got an old video of me working on a trim here on my RUclips channel if you'd like to check it out, or search for tablet weaving in RUclips, and you'll see a lot of videos about it :)
2:20 The best option is to use the other end of the wool that is INSIDE of the yarn, so that way you don't have to worry about the yarn moving and such. Sometimes you'll get a big ball of yarn, but you have to carefully disentangle it and wrap the yarn with it.
It’s so amazing that you keep in your retries. You can use the weights from the second one for the minion one, that way your tension for the circle will be more even
Love your videos! And seeing your adventure with crochet
HII MINORI!! I love your vids smmm, you always cheer me up
It' s no wonder the third and fourth machine works, because it is literally miniatures of the first weaving machines that existed ! Down to the pattern sheets, the one using it are called Jacket machines, and it's quite grandiose seeing them in person ~✨🎀
Hello Minori you are so hardworking, cute , dedicated .
You deserve to be happy❤
I do a bit of knitting but i mostly crochet and the one thing I crochet the most as of recently is shawl/scarves and I've made some for a couple of friends
I had the minion knitting machine but it was bright red with a yellow handle. It looked like an apple!! Omg nostalgia overdose!!! I would spend hours turning that handle while watching it knit! I was so fascinated by it!!
And I had a weaving machine but it was made from wood. I made table mats for Christmas AND for one of my birthday parties!!
I am so happy for you making your new sweater. It is so pretty! I just made my first pull over sweater but unfortunately it is not near as pretty as yours. I will be wearing it anyway because at least it is warm and well made. Thank you for making this video on the toy knitting machines. I was curious about these.
I think just using regular needles for knitting, and crochet hooks for crocheting, are the least stressful and most versatile. There is something super relaxing about doing each stitch by hand.
Welcome Back. Ah look so cute
👍🎀💙🤍
Hi Minori! You inspire me so much and im doing a diamond art painting rn after begging my parents! I joined the giveaway from last video! So excited to see who wins!
Love you Minori! ❤
You're videos are so creative and fun!
OMG SHE LIKED MY COMMENT!!!
Flat bed knitting machines require that you use a yarn winder to turn your yarn into center pull balls. Also you need weights after the first couple of rows. I have a flat bed knitting machine (not a toy one). I have a circular knitting machine too, but it's a 48-pin machine that can do hats.
Love you and your videos minori I have learnt soo much from ur videos
The RUclips channel secret yarnery is a wonderful channel! She has hundreds of tutorials and shows you step by step! You can learn a lot from her anything from flowers, blankets and wearables! She’s a wonderful teacher
Lovee youu Queen MINORI!! we support youuu!!❤❤
A bit of advice! One thing that makes it way easier for flatbed knitting machines are weights! Number two didn't come with any but even homemade ones make it way easier
Minori is so talented❤❤
I watched the last one stella sun and now I love her! ty for introducing her to me!
With the flat bed knitting machine, try looping the cast on yarn over. Going from left to right in sort of an “e” motion. I hope that makes sense? My mum was a machine knitter and designer, so I grew up around them. The machine you’ve got there is quite rudimentary, and with the really old Empisal ones, you cast on with that method. Also for both the flat bed knitting machine and the minion one, if you cast on with “waste” in a contrasting colour, you can use your latch hook to make the top and bottom cast off nearly, before carefully clipping the waste yarn off. Hopefully these tips help a bit 😊
CUTE! diy yarn bowl just needs a clip fyi. Happy crafting! Cute sweater!!!!
For the second machine, try pulling the needles all the way out for the first few rows until you have enough length to hang a weight on the fabric.
Thank you for this video. I get so tempted to buy these!
I really love your videos minori, Everyday when u post. I immediately watch them!!, time for an wonderful video❤!~
Your sweater looks so good! OMG!
Minori all the time you pist it makes me super happy!
Aw your sweater in progress looks fantastic! Please share it when it's finished.💕
8:28 I have an Ultimate knitting machine (its this but much larger) with every pass end to end kinda pull the yarn tightly till after the needles pass the edges (Pull taught on end and end.) I recommend the Ultimate knitting machine if you can find one they are hard to find. It comes with a weighted bar to help the tension on the bottom also be even and prettier. It will take some practice but its def worth it!
i have the second machine and yeah if you dont know how to knit it might be a bit confusing and for the ends getting long after you go to one area and want to go back, you need to tighten the yarn a bit to ensure there's no gap. yah but u did great for a first timer
I'm going to give the Amukawa Amina machine a try even though you had a hard time with it. I've always wanted to try a knitting machine!
Also your eyecatches are so cute!
I think Minori forgot to add the weights several times. That really affects the success of the knitting. I have two vintage machines and the struggle is real at first. Use the weights !!!
So fun and cute!! I want to try the Minions one now!!
Hi Minori, i subscribed you, you are so good at making things, you are so talented , you are my teacher for arts you are the best youtuber ever. I really like your arts. My mom said that your videos are the best.
I´m 23 and i crochet since 8 so i´m really happy to see you also crochet
I love your videos. When I first started watching you was when I first started drawing anime and your videos helped me to get better and better. Now I’m winning awards for my drawings at my local fair. Thank you so much for being a great artist and inspiration for my drawings
The flatbed knitting machine sounds pretty smooth. If this machine is anything close to my real Sk150 knitting machine, the reason why the yearn is behaving the way it is, is the tension. With knitting machines you get weights that hang on the bottom of the first 2-4 rows. That should fix your problem . It keeps the yard close and on the hooks as you pass the carriage over the bed from left to right.
