- Hi everyone!
In today's video I show you how to make a two toned beanie on your knitting machine. This beanie is easily customisable if you would like to leave the pom pom off or if you'd like to make it in one solid colour. It is double layered so super warm for winter!
I used approximately 140g of aran weight yarn all up (including pom pom).
If you have any question please feel free to comment below :)
Enjoy!

You probably already know this but incase you didn’t. You can skip waste yarn by using your cast on tail as the cast off yarn, then just pull it into itself the tube will pull the ends together automatically and is super satisfying. I hope this helps someone!💜
Ooooh! Thanks!
Thanks, I’ll try that next time.
I missed something here. I don't get it.
@@sassegranny4700 Do a few rounds using a contrasting color waste yarn. Then when you begin to use the yarn for your hat leave a long strand laying in the center. It’s called the cast-on tail. Then finish all your rounds, fold your project in half so that the bottom round of your hat yarn (not waste yarn) is near the top stitches on the machine. Ignore the waste yarn. It’s there only to help you locate the yarn stitches. You can alternate picking up a stitch from the hat just after the waste yard, then a loop on the machines hook until the project is completely off the machine. Remove all the waste yarn. So, instead of using a separate cast-off strand, you have used the cast-on yarn strand to cast-off. When you cinch it tight, it pulls the top and bottom together in one fell swoop. You can tie a knot for a two-sided hat or put a pom-pom for a one-sided hat. I tried it and it works, but I had a hard time finding every stitch because I didn’t use any waste yarn. A contrasting waste yarn is essential for your first few rounds so that you can locate every stitch. Otherwise your hat unravels. Good luck.
Thank you for this information.
So, I tagged you in instagram in the hat I made because you seriously just made me like my machine even more. I only got it yesterday but I was already feeling defeated because the hats I made until now were not the best looking. I didn't use two colours, (not ready for that) but I applied your technique to my single coloured hat and it looks 100% better than the first two hats I made. Seriously, thank you so much for putting this video up and I am seriously glad that I found this. Feel free to remove the tag, I just like to apply credit where credit is due. You have made my month with this. I have ADHD so if something doesn't go my way, I tend to quit, you just reinforced my motivation. Sorry for the long winded comment. Thank you so, so, so, much.
It is my absolute pleasure! Thankyou so much again for you kind words 😊 this has made my day! 💕 The knitting machine is great but it does take lots of trial and error. Once you get the hang of it it’s amazing! Enjoy! 😊💕
@@Katieree You have made my day too. I've destroyed a few hats already but I don't mind, I can use that yarn for stuffing into amigurumis.
I have ADHD as well and find when my Brain gets distracted I end up getting confused and making mistakes
The technique was really good for the beanie. I will need more instructions I'm sure. I will be 75 in May, it is not easy but I will get it just dont give up. See you soon ..
Can't wait to try this! Love that you made a mistake and showed how to fix it. My biggest knitting fear is not knowing how to do that. I can fix crochet mistakes to no end but knitting has always scared me! Thank you!
Thanks so much Melissa! 💕 Happy to help 🥰
American here, just got a knitting machine to make holiday hats for charity - thank you! Really appreciate the info. Added bonus: Your lovely accent :)
Haha thankyou! Enjoy your machine!! 😁🥰
I wish you showed a closer view of sewing up the waste yarn. I keep missing something and drop a stitch when I pull out my waste yarn.
Hey Laura, I now have a waste yarn video on my channel. You can find it here - ruclips.net/video/xxzUjLAE2I0/видео.html if you're still interested 🙂
I feel like the waste yarn made it more susceptible to dropping stitches during the removal of the waste yarn. How can I avoid this? The video did not offer explanation of how to navigate the joined bits of waste yarn to the scrap yarn post knitting machine. Thank you in advance for advice!
Check out the waste yarn video on my channel for a more detailed explanation 🫶🏼
So glad I found your tutorial! I've been searching and watching several videos and yours made it so simple to understand! Thank you so much!
Thanks so much for your lovely feedback Cherie!! Happy to help 🥰
So how long do you have to leave the tail to gather them together in the end?? I may be getting one for Christmas and in super excited! Please answer back it would be so helpful later on ❤️❤️

You are right! double layered beanies are more comfortable! Single layered are too loose (of course depending on the yarn! Do you have a tutorial on if/when stitches are dropped? On my first attempt at a 'double' I dropped stitches when attaching the second waste yarn - I sort of hooked the dropped stitches and by the time I cinched the top it sort of disappeared, but it would be nice to know what to do with dropped stitches. Thank you
I've just had my Sentro machine and I'm excited to try it out, thanks for the video, very helpful to a newbie like me :)
UPDATE: Used for 1st time today (following day) and the counter stopped working at row 59 of 1st hat project :( the machine itself though is great!
Oh no Caz!! That’s frustrating 😖 Glad you’re enjoying the machine though 💕💕
@@Katieree what do you do if your machine stops working? do you get it serviced? they aren't cheap so wondering before i invest.
Hi did you know you can get a row counter for Sentro machine on Amazon? I glued mine onto my Sentro machine with a glue gun, by using the smallest amount of hot glue (from my glue gun). The row counter is working great for me.
my daughter got it for christmas. shed had wanted it for years. even after sevrel tryes, she got it.
I would love to make this in a baby size 6-12 months, I can't find any tutorials for babies, mostly children and adults...Thanks
Thank you for the video. I just got mine for Christmas. I just want to double-check on rows, so for the 2-toned beanie, it's 40 in the main color, 50 in the second color, and 40 main color? Just asking because I see some videos that make a two-toned and the row colors are all the same number. Like one person did 40 main, 40 second color, and 40 main again. Thank you for all your detailed videos. Happy New Year
I can't wait to see what you come up with next. OH and by the way ive bought your pattern for the orange crochet jumper its beautiful. How do I buy you yarn?
You legend you
Oh great! Now I’m going to have to buy a knitting machine!! You’re too good Kate 😉❤️ this is gorrrrrgeous!
Ps - are you stocking pom pom makers in your store? I can’t believe I don’t have any!
Haha I love my knitting machine! 🥰
Pom Pom makers are on my list for my next order! 🙌🏼
Thankyou for watching!! 🥰
Just made it! I'm thinking that I want it reversible because I used a mandala type color yarn and different colors will show on different sides...so....solution....PINNABLE POMPON!
That sounds perfect! 🙌🏼
you lost me at the part when you started removing the waste yarn and differentiating which ones to pull out ... when you secured the beanie into the cream colored stitches would removing the waste yarn strands make the beanie fall apart ?
During the last stop of joining the top and the bottom One,you say to match with the opposite direction right? What if i cant find the opposite stich for the One i'm working on?😅
Sorry to be a bother, but can anyone point me in the direction where the 1st and the last whip stitch is shown in a clearer way. I keep trying this and can never after removing the waste yard sinch up the end. I think I'm knotting something with the first and last stitch.
wait so when the beanie comes off the machine, how do you prevent it from unravelling? i find that so difficult bc if i just held the piece the stitches would start dropping
Hi! Brilliant video. Could you tell me the row count for a youth size hat, a toddler size and baby size please
In other videos I've watched, they had to thread a needle to go through the last row before popping off - how are there no dropped stitches on yours at the last step on the machine?
I don't use waste yarn on my cinched beanies. I just don't like using it . Instead, I leave long tails
What size would this fit? Do you have a pattern for 12month to child? X
How many rows for making a 7 year old girl. And which tension we need to use . Thank you
watching you fold it in half...my brains saying noooooo tighten the knots 😨
Same. I kept thinking "you missed a step. You missed a step!"
Hi. Love the video! Wanted know why you used the blue yarn? It was later removed .. so wanted to know why exactly we need to use that? Thanks again for this wonderful video
Hi Sonam! Check out my waste yarn video for a full explanation - ruclips.net/video/xxzUjLAE2I0/видео.html
The screwed up and went backward by mistake. Have a big gap now😭
It's mi first tyme using the machine but after the first row I feel like am forcing it it's not smooth as urs
Hiya from Scotland 👋🏻 just used your tutorial to make a hat on my new sentro knitting machine! Thank you it has turned out lovely ❤️
Hello there! That’s great to hear! 🥰 Thankyou for watching 😁
I have knitting machine struggle help teaching help try hard calm learing
Hi just wondering can these be made into child or adult or do you need different size machines?? Xxx
Hey Sarah!
That’s a great question. You will be able to make them slightly smaller by tightening your tension, but keep in mind you don’t want it to be so tight that it damages your machine.
You can also achieve a smaller beanie by working a panel instead of a tube, seaming along the long edge to create a (smaller) tube and then finishing as per this video.
So yes it can be done without having to purchase a smaller machine, it’s just a little more fiddly 🙂 I hope this helps!

Merhaba, sizin orneginizden ilk denicem aldığım örgü makinesi sentro marka, üzerinde sayı aparatı yok bebek ok er için kaç cm örüp ikiye katlayıp dikmen gerekir cm olarak yazma imkanınız varmı , teşekkür ederim.
Hi Kate. Greetings from France ❤💐 A wonderful fantastic video tutorial. Your video popped in front of my eyes and I decided to watch it. No regrets. So well explained with much laughter and excitement in your golden voice and splendid accent. You really made me giggle when you forgot to tie in the ends before popping on your pompom. You were very sincere and showed us how you corrected your mistake. That was so moving. Each time I watch your other videos you make me smile and giggle😂🤣. I am new to this machine. I watched a recommended video a few days ago on how to make socks on this machine in less than 15 minutes. I immediately purchased one which arrived on 24.03.21. I take 4h to knit real socks, not tubes, on my CIRCULAR KNITTING NEEDLES and at least 8h for crocheted beanies. Your video was a great help for a 70 year old. Thanks for sharing caring and making me smile. A big hug from France 🥰🥰🥰👍👍👍👍👍💐💐💐💐💐💗💗💗💗💗
Hello!!
Oh my gosh you are too kind! Thank you so much 🥰🥰 I’m so glad you’re enjoying my videos. Welcome to the channel!! 😁
@@Katieree A big hug🥰💖🌹
No dropped stitches!! Thank you for your tutorials ❤
You are so welcome! ❤️
Hi there I love your video so it 40 one row and 50 row then 40 row how row for a men beanie hat
Love this tutorial but wondered if you can help. When i change colour, there's always a gap left, I think i'm following the tutorial exactly so I don't understand, do you know what's happening?
That’s normal.. tie the ends from the new colour and previous colour together to close the gap 😊
I don't know what's going on. Im using the machine or the first time and can't even get through the second color because it keeps jamming and then I keep restarting with the waste color and now my waste color keeps jamming over and over again. I'm using the yarns that came with the machine and going slow I don't know what I'm doing wrong but I'm getting super frustrated.
I kept trying, and finally got it. What worked for me what laying out all of the possible yarn that I was going to use before hand. Because I kept having to start the process over, I tried without the waste yarn at the beginning and I finally got it to work for some reason. I did later use the waste yarn for the end and it helped a lot. I think I just needed some practice, I also tried a few different yarn sizes. Then, I had to learn how to fix the yarn if the machine wouldn't fully grab the strand of yarn. Thanks of posting this video, I made a really cool hat for my very first time ever using yarn. Was frustrating at first but I think I learned how to work with the machine on this first go.
I'm so confused by the dark yarn. Is it used so you don't have to cast off? But then she did the same thing ...just off the machine. Then pulled the dark yarn out. What is the purpose? Seems harder not smarter
Check out this video for a full explanation 😊 ruclips.net/video/xxzUjLAE2I0/видео.html
Hi!! New to this machine and was wondering if you still have/use the sentro to this day!! I see that this video was 3 years ago so I am curious to how long they last before problems!!😁
I had this machine up until about 6 months ago when I upgraded to the Addi! But it was still in perfect working order. I ended up selling it 😊
I WISH TO PASS ON A TIP AT THE BEGINNING OF SETTING UP EDGE. SET UP WITH WASTE YARN AND DO A FEW ROWS , NOW GET A 3 METER LENGTH OF strong (the crochet cotton) COTTON THREAD AND KNIT ONE ROW. THEN START THE MAIN YARN AND CONTINUE ON YOUR PROJECT. AT THE FINISHING OF YOUR PROJECT, PICK UP ALL THE STITCHES FROM 1st MAIN COLOUR. (Set up end only) CATCH THE COTTON ONE ROW YARN. JUST CHECK THAT YOU MISSED NO STITCHES !!! NOW PULL ONE END OF THE COTTON THREAD AND PULL IT OUT. YOUR WASTE YARN FROM START EDGE SHOULD SLIP OFF HERE. THAT CAN BE WOUND AND RE USED. FINISH OFF AS USUAL. KEEP THE 3M COTTON FOR RE USE, NOTE MAKE SURE ITIS WITHOUT KNOTS OR JOINS. I USED THIS METHOD AND IT WORKS. (i had this tip from using the set up cord from Knitmaster knitting machines) See how ye go!! From a senior citizen which loves crafts crochet and knitting. Best of luck.
Hi I just brought a Sentro and I was wondering where you got the counter from please. Thank you
Mine came with the counter 🩷🩷
Can you tie the first color to your second color and do a color change this way?! I just got mine for Christmas gift and tried it and it seems to be working. I'd do it that way when I crochet
Whatever works!
What does each section of color measure?
So to clear up it is in total 150 rounds/rows, correct?
130 rounds all together not including your waste yarn 😊
see Karie you are an aussie legend. I was thinking about the machine for ages. Then I finaly got it and was dropping stitches everywhere and messing thing up. Thanks to you I persevered instead of throwing the machine out or selling it. I ve made amazing projects for my family. Thanks to you
Thank you for showing your work. Its very difficult to find something you like.I use the translator,because I don't speak english. Thank you again.
Honestly, I just got to know your channel, but it's so explanatory and lovely. I would try this at home. Thanks for being a sunshine to all Knitters
Welcome to the family! Thanks for the great feedback 🥰❤️
how many meters of yarn for 1 hat?
hello! thank you for making this video! i was wondering: about how many yards of yarn this hat takes? (so i know how much yarn to buy) i appreciate you! :)
I just made a beautiful beanie by following this tutorial, Thankyou so much for sharing your skill & time with us.
I am so glad I found you! If the makers of the Sentro don’t pay you or give you give you free stuff, they absolutely should! I was given a sentro by my husband for Christmas. I never wanted a knitting machine but I am a slow knitter and I think my husband had done the math and realized at the rate I knit my stash had exceeded my life expectancy so he wanted to help speed things along to get rid of the yarn all over our house 😂 To say the instructions that came with the Sentro were vague is a bit of an understatement. After cranking out my first test knit on it I was unimpressed and probably wouldn’t have bothered using it again until I found your videos! You’ve inspired me! Thank you!!
Thank you so much Colleen! Glad I could help 🥰
What is the usage of waste yarn starting time
I just bought a gently used Sentro, I think it's a 40 or 48, have you Made baby sets on your machines, what's the best that this particular machine can handle?
I tried to use the machine and I was left with holes and inconsistent stitches. Now that I've watched your video, I know how to change colors. I like the idea of the waste yarn. That leaves a very nice edge. Very good video, easy to follow. I will be subscribing. 😁
Thanks so much Kelly! Happy to help 🥰
Adorei seu vídeo. Estou aprendendo a usar a máquina
Hello I am a new subscriber. I wanted to ask if there is a video to make pompoms or maybe the weight of the yarn you made the pompom. It looks really fluffy. Thank you!
Thank you so much for the tutorial!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I love this! Is there any way you could write out the row counts for the two tones?
Hi Sherry!
This pattern is 40 rounds of the main colour, 50 rounds of the brim colour and then another 40 rounds of the main colour 🙂
Thanks for watching! ❤️
So question I have a knitter with a row counter about how many rows do you use for a roll up beanie? That is without the scrap yarn I mean
Just subscribed to your channel. Love your videos. Please is there any way to reduce the size of the beanie using the 48 stitches size machine to make like a baby size?
Just wondering why you are using waste yarn instead of just taking it off the machine with a needle ?
Hi Lesley!
Using waste yarn gives your edges a much nicer finish. The first couple of rounds can be quite loose so rather than having the loose rounds at the beginning of your project the waste yarn allows you to remove them instead! 😊
@@Katieree thank you for your reply . I have used the circular knitting machines for a while now , both the Addi and the Sentro . I have always just taken off the machine but I do appreciate your thoughts .
Hello may I ask how many rounds you did on machine for beanie thanks
I can’t remember off the top of my head I’m sorry. All info is in the video 💛
At primary school (I'm in South Africa) we had needlework as a mandatory subject years ago and when it came to knitting I was so bad at it I wish this machine had been around it would have saved me a lot of heartbreak lol
Haha don’t worry you’re not alone!! I’m so bad at knitting 😆 that’s why I love this machine so much 😍
@@Katieree when I saw your video titled knitting I had flashbacks of all the knitting projects that had gone horribly wrong😂😂 but then I saw the machine. And that's pretty awesome I'm definitely going to look into getting one now❤
Hahah the machine is a lifesaver!! ❤️ Thankyou for watching 🥰
@@Katieree and thank out for the tutorials. Take care❤❤❤❤
Thanks for the nice video! How many rounds would you use for a fishermans beanie?
What tightness did you use? I’m sorry I didn’t hear you mention it in the video?
Usually just the medium tension setting with this yarn 😊
Love your tutorial. How many total rows did you have and how many of each color? I watched the video but was looking in the comments for the row count. Thank you!
Hi Meredith!
All row counts are mentioned in the video but incase you missed it I did 40 rounds of the beige colour, 50 rounds of the tan colour, then another 40 rounds of the beige.
Thanks for watching! 💕
@@Katieree thank you! I’m going to give it a try!
mine just kept unraveling
Gm your Instagram I can leave u a message or a pic of what my addi is doing
Hey Lillian, you can find me on Instagram as @Katieree_
Cartman Hat but white
Lol no, everyone doesn’t know how to make a pom pom. Please show us.
Coming soon! 😁
Great to have an OZZIE Video. Thank You ....I am in Brisbane.
Hi Joan! I’m happy to be of service 😆 someone has to do it for us Aussies 🇦🇺 Thanks for watching! 🌻
@@Katieree from Yeppoon QLD
So I have wanted a knitting machine and finally gave in and got a sentro from Amazon. I figured trying with making hats would be great. However, now I’m starting to completely fail.
I have different spots just coming off the machine as if on a knitting loom and I just miss one and that spot becomes an open spot it all wants to come apart on.
I also have spots where they are not looping over and they are building up. I suppose I should be watching that not a tv, but how does that even happen? I don’t realize it did happen till the handle on the side makes a somewhat loud cranking stop sound
Is this from using not the right type of yarn or not doing the correct tension?
Hi Rose,
It could be either or a mixture of both! The knitting machine does take some trial and error. I find the medium tension and 8 ply/ DK weight yarn works best. Goodluck! 💛
Hi! The hat is super cute! I'm considering getting one of these machines, however, looking at the specs the circumference of the machine seems a bit small. Have these hat been ok size for adults to wear? Are there any considerations to make them big enough for adults?
Thanks! :)
Hey Eeva!
This machine is a 48 peg machine which is the biggest of the circular knitting machines (that I’m aware of). These are definitely suitable for adults 😊 you can adjust your tension to make them smaller or larger depending on your preference.. also keep in mind they are super stretchy when you take them off the machine.
I hope this helps! 🌻
How would you do this on the 40 pin for toddlers? How many rows of each color?
Gratidão! Lindo gorro!!😘🙏
Are you able to make a headband using this machine?
Absolutely!
Isn't the waste step just more work that is unnecessary?
Not at all! Check out my waste yarn video for a full explanation 😊 - ruclips.net/video/xxzUjLAE2I0/видео.html
Great video but can you please show a close up of stitching it together at the end portion? I keep dropping a stitch and I’m not sure how that is happening. One time I could not pull it closed. Thank you in advance!
I know I must be missing something. I understand the waste yarn being added at the end but why is it necessary at the start of the beanie?
It makes it easier to see your ends when joining and also leaves a much nicer edge. Check out my waste yarn video for more info! 😊 ruclips.net/video/xxzUjLAE2I0/видео.html
@@Katieree thanks will re watch
Thank you for such clear instructions. Love this combination. Looking forward to more tutorials.
My pleasure Cathy! Thankyou for watching 🥰
@@Katieree how long you been knitting? when I do my lap looms, I do pearl stitch every other line, can you pearl on a machine?
Awaiting the delivery of of 41 pin knitting loom. I watched a few videos to get me ready. What I can’t seem to find I’d how you change the hat width. I have a big head my sister a small one. Advice would be most welcome x thank you
Adjust your tension/ yarn weight to change the width. The tighter your tension the smaller the hat 💛
I'm thinking of buying a machine but I'm not sure what size machine I'd use most . When I loom knit by hand I use a orange 36 peg loom I make hats both for kids and adults there about 6 1/2 inch across please help!
I love my Sentro 48 and the Addi Kingsize but it really just depends what you want to make 💛
How you make the pompom
Katieree, I so enjoyed your two toned beanie video, everything was so clear and easy to follow. Thank you. Thought I would buy you a coffee or soda as a thank you. Judi
Oh, I live in Northeast Pennsylvania and my machine of choice is the Addi King size.
Thank you so much Judi! I appreciate the support ❤️❤️❤️
Love your videos! What would you charge for each hat? Love my machine! Thanks Kat!
Thanks for your great video, I have done 2 and they make up very quickly. 😍🧶❤️
I have watched your video multiple times and don’t seem to be able to gather the top of the hat once I have gone around stitching it together. Neither of the yarns that are left seem to pull.
What tension setting did you use?
Usually just medium
Just made my first beanie. Yay😍
Thank you for sharing this 💓💓💓
You’re welcome 😊
I like Australia very much and I like the people of Australia very much I love everyone in Australia
I bough min on Amazon but when m turning the machine it feels like it’s not smooth turning. Is it the yarn or machine? I bought the Awperex . It had good reviews
It could be the yarn or your tension. Try loosening your tension a little, if that doesn't work try a new yarn. The softer the better! 💛
Me gusta mucho el tejido gracias por compartir soy de chile
It's a very good video but my machine does work but it leaves a gap when it's getting used at the start
What brand of knitting machine is this
Sentro! 😊
Hi Katieree,
I just finally had the time to finish watching this wonderful video, as I am in school right now. Just want to say thank you for taking the time to make this video. I find using my machine to be very wonderful and relaxing. Take care,
Mar
I closed my eyes when you tightened the 2strands closed. Have they ever broke? Gotta have strong yarn. Thanks for your video I will try my best.
Hey Leslie! No they have never broken 🤣 I wouldn’t pull that hard unless I knew the yarn could take it. Thanks for watching! 🥰
best yarn Brands here in Australia for Addi knitting machine. I am a newbie for this, love your directions and have saved for reference.
I find the softer the yarn the better! To be honest it’s lots of trial and error.. I’ve found that even certain colours of some yarn won’t work even though the other colours do. Crazy!!
But in general I find 8 ply yarns work best 💗
This is some excellent teaching........thank YOU so much!! Just got my Sentro yesterday......I am on my way now!!
Thank you so much for this tutorial;especially how to use the waste yarn ; I really enjoyed it
My pleasure! Thanks so much for watching 🥰
