- Hey Guys!
I made a jumper on my knitting machine!! Spolier alert - It was a success 😆 I'm not really calling this a tutorial but I tried to explain everything as best I could (without knowing what I was doing 😆). This video will show you the exact technique I used to make mine, so hopefully you find it helpful!
Method and links below 👇🏼
You will need approximately 300g of 8 ply/ DK weight yarn. I used the Venture yarn in Yellow from Lincraft (link below).
Body Panels - 85 rows x 44 stitches
Arm Tubes - 65 rows x 48 stitches
Knitted Ribbing - 9 rows of knit 2, purl 2 ribbing

OMG! I love that she's just "letting us watch" instead of doing a "tutorial" because this is exactly how I knit. Even when following a pattern I usually wind up changing stuff. FUN!!

I am incapable of following a pattern and always end up just making it up 😂
@@amandacarroll31 I do the same thing
You didt it 1 time have u make more it some hole in it not good
@Amanda Carroll yep me too....after all theses years....I finally figured it out.....a pattern is nothing more than a guide line....
I have completed a navy blue jumper using your instructions! Took me 1.5days to complete when hand knitting would have taken a month! Thank you for your video
My pleasure!! I’m glad you enjoyed it 🥰
Thank you so much!! I've had my sentro for almost 2 years and have only made hats. You have boosted my confidence.
That’s great to hear Ruth! Enjoy 😁
So many fantastic knitting machine videos on RUclips! If you haven't already you should check out Diana Levine Knits, she does great tutorials if you wanna learn to do more than just hats :)
Can we make this with a smaller knitting machine too?
Very interesting, Just a little tip, when you are joining two pieces of knitted stocking stitch together, with a wool needle and working from the front of garment pick up one stitch working from left to right picking up the stitch on the opposite side this method gives you the appearance of a stocking stitch. Just be careful not to pull the yarn too tight. Trust this is helpful to all you knitters.
@@mariemanly3278 hi I’m sorry could you explain in a bit more detail? Thank you
I’m normally a crocheter, but I just got my machine in the mail yesterday and I’m so excited to try this tutorial out today 🎉 thank you!!! 😁
Tell me please which yarn do you use?
I’ve been practicing three days now on panels lol. Did you manage to make it the first day?
This is gorgeous! I’m a crocheter who finds knitting boring but now I’m inspired and I’ve ordered myself a knitting loom while watching this!
Same here
Same here! I was really close to buying one of these after seeing these kinds of videos but I ended up buying a flat knitting machine, the lk-150 and honestly I'm so glad I went that way instead, mainly because you can do one panel in one piece and not have to attach 2 pieces to make the front panel! I absolutely LOVE IT
@@claraleigh1271 If I keep enjoying this (I ended up buying one haha) I’ll possibly expand to a flat machine!
My mom just gave me one of these for Christmas and I'm dying to try to make a sweater/sweater dress for my 2 year old. I've always done more crochet than knitting and never attempted a sweater at all, but you've given me the confidence to try. 🥰
I've somehow always thought knitting machines were somehow "cheating" - and also wildly expensive.
But... That's just rubbish, isn't it? I mean, if you just want to get something done quickly, why on earth NOT use the easiest method? And a simple knitting machine like yours obviously can't do what a commercial knitting machine can do - but it's also a heck of a lot more affordable!
It looks fun, it looks easy, and I saw one similar to yours in a local supermarket at a bargain price... Got to try it!
So thank you for opening my eyes to new possibilities. Who knows; maybe with a machine I can actually do a large knitted blanket like I've always wanted - but couldn't face doing on needles...
I absolutely agree! Work smarter not harder I say 😉 It's really just another tool for us to enjoy! Thanks for watching 🥰
@@Katieree Well, I bought one and it's quick and kind of fun - though I miss the many options you have with needles. But for a quick hat and a scarf? It did the job!
And some of the ways of combining tubes by braiding dropped stitches would almost make up for the lack of cable knitting in a blanket, for sure. I'm sure there must be many more ways to manipulate the simple knit after it's done - so... It's simple, but it's possible to get creative in spite of the limitations of the machine!
(Also, my very cheap machine drops stitches a LOT - but I think that's a matter of practice and of keeping an eye on it all the time. With hand knitting I can watch TV or read while I do it, but with the machine I definitely need to watch it.)
😊 Great first attempt at a sweater.
I used to machine knit so I have a few tips. I would suggest you learn how to block your pieces. You don’t have to always do it, but it’s useful to know what difference it can make to the item. This will be easy as you are already using waste yarn. This will give your work a better overall finish. Check the differences between blocking wool yarns and acrylic yarns. For example coned Shetland yarn needs to be knitted very loosely because it’s spun in oil and when the pieces are washed it releases the oil and the spaces fill up with wool fibres giving a lovely soft knit fabric. Acrylic yarn can also be pressed and ‘killed’ into flowing fabric or just shaped with pins and then water sprayed and left overnight to dry. You would need to test how a piece of knitted acrylic reacts with or without pressing, steam pressing, hover pressing, pressing with a muslin cloth just pinning to shape etc.
You could pick up many more finishing tips from machine knitting tutorials. Finally overlocking pieces makes them easy to cut and sew. An overlocker is best for this, but a zig zag can also be used and even a straight sewing machine stitch can be used. Do check out how to do Cut and Sew knitwear.
Alternatively, you can go in with a hook a couple sizes larger to avoid loosing the stretch in the neck, or you can pick up the live stitches with single or double crochets instead of slip stitches.
Iam interested but how to buying
I absolutely love this. My only question is, what do you do for the holes or drop stitches up by your shoulder and neck? Because those will drive me crazy, and I'll end up unraveling the whole thing.
I loved this and totally feel confident enough to try making a sweater on the machine!
That’s great to hear Katie! 🥰
Even though I do not have a knitting machine like you do, I still found this video really helpful! Kept me motivated while knitting my own project for 33 minutes straight, haha.
I don't own a knitting machine and I can't needle knit-I do a little loom kitting but I loved this video. I watched the whole thing. You are charming and a delight to listen to!
This video convinced me to get the sentro. It arrived on Thursday and i had a jumper by Tuesday. I managed to make it around my busy lifestyle too. Thank you so much
I don't own a knitting machine, nor do I intend to buy one anytime soon, but I just watched this whole video...lol. Very entertaining and educational, and that jumper turned out amazing!
Thanks so much for watching! 😊
It literally looks AMAZINGGGGG! THAT YARN IS GORGEOUSSSS IM GONNA MAKE LIKE 12 OF THESE
T
Hahaha thanks Kayla! So glad you enjoyed it 🥰
Watching this gave me hope that I too could do something similar. My daughter bought me sentro as ptsd therapy. Watching this made me happy. Thanks for sharing
This help me with creating my own cardigan. Thanks for sharing your experiment with us. It turned out great.
I followed your jumper knitting journey and actually managed to make a jumper for myself using my Sentro 48! Thank you for sharing, really appreciate it!😊
I make jumpers etc on needles, or by crochet but recently bought a Sentro too. I'm still learning and have been making hats but love this jumper and couldn't believe how quickly it is made and you made it almost in real time. Also you are a pleasure to watch, explaining everything and really encouraging. Well done, I loved it.
That's wow finished product. Watching from Stockholm Sweden.
If you know how long you want your sleeve, you could measure one of the body panels and count how many rows it is.
Cool. Love the honey colours. I did a running vest with very very cheap dayglo yellow wool once. It worked out okay. One thing that helps is being able to hand knit to just tidy stuff up a bit. I might have to dig my machine out again to do more than just hats LOL
I've only followed you for a couple of weeks for my Sentro..but this is WONDERFUL..you did so well, and yes, even though we live in warm Brisbane I could do this for caravaning days...very well done..love your jumper (but in blus/purples
I don't know how I found you but now I need a knitting machine in my life! Thank you for this very informative tutorial! Everything is really clear. really inspired me 😍
My pleasure!! Thanks for watching 😁
Thanks for sharing this fantastic video on how to use the Centro to create a jumper... I enjoyed every moment and found it just so useful... thanks again 😍😍😍
This turned out so stinkin’ cute!!!
I love the way you crocheted up the seams. It seems sturdier that way. And often when you buy a knitted garment, the seams are chain stitched together , which is exactly what you did, only they do it by machine.
Thank you so much! I am totally impressed and so excited with the product you just came up with. It's beautiful. When you were impressed at the end of the video, I was right there with you with my jaw to the floor in pure aw! I just got my Centro knitting machine today and I've already made two hats thanks to your tutorial. I love people like you who teach the rest of us how to do things. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
You are so welcome! Thanks so much for watching 🥰
I am currently watching this to determine whether to get the machine for myself or not ^^ I love the result, but the bigger holes on the shoulders kind of bug me. What could be done to prevent that from happening or to fix it?
Following. This issue is stopping me, too.
You could maybe sew it together
@@LadyYukiLan bit would merely sewing not look weird?
User... this is because the Craft Knitter Machine is really a Toy to that of a genuine Knitting Machine (where you can dial down to a Smaller (tighter) Stitch. Especially so on Shoulder Seams ! Or where the weight of the Fabric pulls a lot on these Stitches.
Tip :
You could Knit the whole Jumper (UK Sweater (USA, AU,NZ) on this Machine, and cast off on Waste Yarn too.
BUT... in putting the pieces together you either :
1) Crochet on the Wrong Side the Seams together by going through at least x2 Stitches (in that you slide your Hook through x2 Active Stitches. By doing this the 'Edge' joins are a bit Stronger (x2 Stitches are more Stable, therefore Stronger !) Or...
2) At the Junction of the Last Stitch Row of Knitting Machine Knitting (not the Waste Yarn !) You pick up and Transfer all Live Stiches to a Smaller (Super Long Double Ended Flex Cord ) Knitting Needle. Do this both for Front, and another for the Back Panel. (Maybe the same for Sleeves... haven't seen that bit at time of writing !)
Knit a Row of Knitting so these Stitches are a lot Smaller (tighter) until you have done the full Row !
Do same with its Joining Mate.
Then hold these x2 Flex Cord Needles together (So Good Side of Knitting is inside Face to Face.) Get another Needle and Knit of a Front + Back Sts together, and then Knit it Off.
Continue Knitting "Loosely" so Fabric can Stretch. Do all, you should end up having lovely Smooth, Stretchy, no Gap or Holey Seam Construction ! 👍
Hope this helps. 😎
My thoughts : Are that these Craft Knitting Gadgets are basically "one fits all" Knitting Machines... No Tension, No Stitch Sizing, No Garter Stitch Option... "Toys" !
If you know they produce large amounts of BASIC Fabric and you can adapt this, great. Otherwise, learn proper Knitting on Knitting Needles, or buy a Basic Flat Bed Knitting Machines : Some can take Thick / Chunky Yarn too... probably for less £$€ than this Videos version... if you search eBay etc.
Then you can Knit "Real Garments" etc...
Just saying. 🙄
Hope this helps. (KNITTING is basically like Engineering, if you understand the basic Construction you can Tweak (Wing it !) On everything else on making stuff... Scarves, Hats, Socks, Tops, Skirts, etc. 😉
See my Tip below. Hope this answers your query ! 😎 Now see its above this.... 😆
Very educational - really helps me understand the capabilities and constraints of this type of machine, which is very helpful. Thanks for going to the effort of publishing this video - much appreciated.
My pleasure! Thanks so much for watching 🥰
don't blame you for being thrilled with the jumper and yourself, it is a lovely jumper
Love it love it love it. I can’t wait to get a new 48 knitting machine to delivery on Monday 20/11/2023. Been watching your video. Awesome 😊
How'd it go?
ordered a sentro 48 will be arriving on friday im sooo excited but so nervous i’m a crocheter and have no experience with knitting but i watched the whole video, instead of knitting the ribboning i’ll try to crochet them on i love ur channel already u are really good at explaining!
Absolutely love this. Ordered a machine and now it is on it's way.
Thank you for sharing.😍
I'll be watching this again and again till I get it! Thank you so much for this❤
I just bought a Prym knitting mill 44 needle machine from Michael's and this helped alot. Thank you!
Oh my gosh!!! It looks amazing!!!! I'll have to practice alot but I definitely want to try to make this. It's just beautiful!! Thank you very much for sharing the process!!❤❤
Thank you so much for watching 🥰 Glad you enjoyed it!
I love how happy you looked with the finished jumper. It was definitely worth it.
Wow i didn't know i could make a jumper with my knitting machine. Now i gotta try this :D Thanks for sharing.
Love!! I've been thinking of getting myself a knitting machine! Oh my Gosh this takes the Achy Wrists and Time out of Knitting!! Love!!
Thanks Rita! 🙂
This is one of the best how-to's Ive seen 🔥 Perfect delivery of all the necessary details. Excited to learn more and just subbed!
Awesome, thank you!
It is incredibly beautiful how you knitted this jumper on the looming machine. You do great work, I love this pattern. Thank you for sharing.
I love it. Just got my machine today. Not as ambitious as you. I am just crocheting beanies for the homeless and I love the knitted beanies so I thought of getting this machine. But I loved your tutorial and the sweater.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
This is the most helpful video I have seen! Thank you so much!
Thanks for your information on making beanies I make them all time. Making them look like cats, dogs, monsters, owls even. I have been using leftovers yarns to create beanies for donations for chemotherapy patient's. Right now its been put on hold due to health concerns in our family members. Too much stress isn't helping me with my weight loss program. Great video's. Wishing you amazing weekend. Mary Ellen & Jake TenEyck.
That's such a lovely thing for you to do! Thanks for watching 😊
You've almost convinced me to get a knitting machine. I've been knitting Wrap With Love blankets for a few years now, & this would make it soooooo much faster! 🧶💚🧶
Thankyou for nice tutorial , I'm waiting my knitting machine so needing all the help I can get . Cheers Suzi
My pleasure Suzi! Enjoy your machine 😁❤️
Brilliant! Never thought you could do this with that kind of machine. You are a clever lady!
Haha thank you! 🫶🏼
That came out really good. I can't wait to make something other than a scarf on my machine.
Thank you!! 🥰
I cannot wait to try this out later. This is seriously amazing. You did a fantastic job, thank you for sharing! ❤️😍
Thank you so much!! My pleasure 🥰🥰
Oh my gosh I want to do this so much! I have an Addi Express King Size, so it’s a different machine but it should work the same. Thank you so much for this video!
It will absolutely work the same! The Addi is just slightly smaller than this machine 💛
How clever. The only thing I don’t care for is the gapping at the neck where the stitches are stretch. I wonder if duplicate stitches would close those up.
I love this! But the stitches at the shoulder seam look like they already have holes. Is there a way to prevent this?
It came out so cute!
I was looking for answers to this same question though. Looks like the stitches are stretching a bunch right where the shoulders meet the neck, And I'm wondering if anybody has ideas on how to fix/prevent that too.
Such a lovely sweater! I have been looking at knitting machines and this makes me want one even more. A sweater in a day. Awesome!
Thank you! 😊
I really like the darker yarn vs the lighter yarn for the waste yarn
Me encanta tu canal, mi máquina viene en camino y estoy contenta y ansiosa de hacer varios tutoriales tuyos 🥰
Great job! How lovely the jumper on you❤Thank you for sharing ❤
I know how to crochet and a little bit of knitting. I'm quite intrigued by this machine and am waiting for mine to be delivered. I just started watching your channel, and I have tons of questions. My first 2 questions are: What is waste yarn, and why do you need it? I watched another channel, which made no sense to me, which is how I stumbled onto yours ....thank goodness!❤
This is my first time knitting, thank you so much. Very easy and clear to follow 😁
You’re welcome 😊
That is an amazing jumper. I’m new to the machine but I am a knitter. So this I will try for sure. Loved the video. ❤
Wow that's incredible. You make it look so easy. I can't wait to royally mess this up lol
You’ll be fine!! 😊
I can't wait to accomplish doing a perfect knit panel on my machine. I'm going for a long duster.
Cool, looks great
Hey you gave it a try! Encouraging the rest of us to be brave and just go for it!
This was so helpful, I have been interested in buying this knitting machine for a while but after watching other videos have been discouraged! Your sweater turned out really cute! Thanks for sharing !
My pleasure! 💕
Thank you! This video has just about convinced me to buy a circular knitting machine.
Love the cable! Very unique way of doing it! Thanks!
So cool! You make the best vids! My daughter will love this for her bday! Thank you
I love! Thanks a lot. Your Jumper looks smooth.
I like your joining crochet method. Clean result. And your ribbing on circular needle at the end (not shown but good idea).
I own a Prym Maxi knitting machine with 44 hooks. Just learned how to use. Now I'd dare making more.
Your machine is a little bigger (48 hooks)...
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed the video 🥰
If you have a horisontal join along the front, it should be pretty invisible if you seam them using mask stitches. It would be just like adding a row which joins the two pieces… Right? 🤗
Wow! Beautiful sweater.
Amazing!!! Please show more about the knitting that you added up, I mean to the neck, the bottom and the end of the sleeves.
It came out so good!! I'm on my way to go buy a knitting machine now!
Yayy!! Enjoy! 😁
That turned out amazingly well. I need to try this immediately!!
the seam down the middle with the variegated yarn looks so cool!!
Thank you!! 😁
Really great video and now I,m motivated to use my machineI really wished you showed how you did the ribbing on it. Even if it was just to fast forward it.
By trial-and-error your sweater came out very beautifully I was truly concerned about the width of the sleeves being attached to the body I didn't think it was going to be enough comfort for person to actually have that slope affect but I do remember you saying that this was a drops sleeve so I can see how that would work out beautifully as well. Love the technique of removing the waste yarn I will definitely play around with that. 🤗💖 maybe a jumper for a baby 👶 before the adult jumper Thank you so much for making this video.
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it 💛
I thought you could only make hats with it, I'm soo excited! Lol Could you show how to use a needle for the neckline?
Thank you so much for this vid, I can’t wait to get one of these, you explain things so well
I was really looking for a jumper. The top us very nice
I absolutely love this!! I’m going to have to give it a go! Thank you for sharing
My pleasure!! 🥰
It looks great on you. Thank you for the idea, I can wait to make one too!!
Thanks for the tutorial! This turned out so cute! You really couldn’t have picked a better colour yarn either! 🤗
Thanks so much Carrie!! Isn’t the colour beautiful? 😍
Wow. Can't wait to try this out. Looks amazing.
Thank you so much!
Looks fabulous! I would have liked to see how you picked up the stitches cos I haven't knitted for 67 yrs 😂
Hi, excellent video... expecting my Sentro 48 pin machine tomorrow, quick ? If you don't mind..... instead of seaming the front of the jumper together, do you think it would hang nicely if left open like an open cardi?... I was thinking go of picku up stitches along the front sides and collar to had a ribbing,,,, also for the sleeves and bottom of the front and back
Oh I'm HOOKED now! Now that I can make a.sweater look out
Oh my I enjoyed watching this tutorial. So creative!
Thanks so much! 💕
Your sweater looks really nice. I would like to make one as nice.
Thank you for taking the time to make the video.
My pleasure! Thanks for watching 😊
Wow! You’ve convinced me to get a machine.
Woo its looks so cozy I loved it
Nice, have you thought about a video on fixing neck opening. I would like some info on that method, when using a knitter.
i love that it has drop shoulders!
Cute sweater.
so we call that a sweater in the US. I was waiting for you to create something with arms and legs! 😂 it's adorable.
Jumper and sweater both sound kinda ridiculous to me, they're just pullovers to me haha
Gorgeous. It turned out so well!
Thank you! ❤️
Beautifil sweater 😮😊Very Good!!my like video!!👏👏👏👏🥇🥈🥉🏅
Cute! Now I need to learn how to do ribbing lol ❤️🙏✨thank you dear
You are very welcome!
Wow! This is cute and beautiful 🎉I’ll try it on my machine too; thanks for sharing✅🙏
