- Video tutorial showing how to make double knit fingerless gloves on a Sentro 48 Circular knitting Machine an Addi King machine can be used as well.
I'm sorry that I went off camera for a portion of the closing of the tube and the seaming of the glove. You can see a better closing of the tube in another video tutorial I have. You can fast forward those sections, but there are still sections where I am on camera and I still show you within camera view how to do both of those sections. I didn't realize I was off camera until a little while after and I felt editing out those sections would make the video choppy. Also the video somehow was accidentally cut short. I will try to make a shorts video of how to seam the glove or make a part 2 of this tutorial showing that if someone requests it. You can choose to seam your tube to make the fingerless gloves in whatever way you choose and you are more comfortable with.
I used a dk weight catrgory 3 yarn, 100% acrylic and a 5mm crochet hook.

Note - I was asked: Is waste yarn always needed? Great question you don't have to do the waste yarn. The purpose of the waste yarn is for it to hold your live stitches so the knit fabric does not unravel at the cast off edge. For the beginning cast on it is recommended because the 1st few rows tend to not have a consistent tension so your project will look better but this cast on is secure and is not easy to unravel if you decide to not use waste yarn. For casting off depending on what I am making I don't always use waste yarn, I will sometimes use a needle and grab all the live stitches but you run the risk of accidentally dropping stitches. For cast off I've also used my tunisian double ended hook and placed the stitches on there, or with the crochet hook I make single crochets and cast off but, I find it easier if I'm going to close the tube that I use waste yarn because then when I crochet the tube closed and create a seam I find it easier to do.
You should also secure your machine to the table when you are using. I don't do that in this video and I usually hold the machine on my lap while I knit when I'm not filming.
This video will only be available right handed since it's not alot of crocheting in the video. I've also only filmed it in English. If anyone wants this video in Spanish too please let me know. If I have enough requests then I will film a Spanish version of this tutorial.
Thanks, now I really, really want a knitting machine! 😂
It's awesome!! I love mine and I've learned how to do so many things with mine.
I will have to watch your replay. Looks fun!
Thanks, I hope you do. Thanks for commenting. I just finished filming it and wasn't sure if youtube would let me release 3 or more videos for today. It's only 2 small sections that went a little bit off camera while I was filming. Thanks :) I hope you can watch this video when I premier it on Tues.
thank you for doing a video using the knitting machine there's not many out there that covers all the possibilities not just hats😊i like the hat videos but I would like to learn everything that the machine is capable of😊
You're welcome. I'm glad you liked it. You should look at Koalas knit and knacks RUclips channel she has alot of great circular knitting machine tutorials. I also have a brief video where I give the pattern for a smaller sized blanket I made by using the circular knitting machine. I made 6 tubes, closed them, then joined them and added a border. It was late last year that I published it. Thanks for commenting and watching. :)
Hi Nessa, just to let you know I will try to send you the link to the blanket pattern is your comments section here, It is Ursula's of OMGrannysquare's channel. Her Tutorial for the Rainbow Baby Blanket.
❤❤❤
Did you mention what yarn was used in your intro thumnail? (The beige, burguny & blue?) I lovechow itctransitioned colors so softly!
the yarn in the glove I'm wearing for the thumbnail picture? I may have mentioned it in the video but I don't remember right now. I used Lion brand Mandala ferris wheel... I think that might be Summer day, sprinkles or vintage carousel colorway... I can't remember the exact colorway. I made them at least 2 or 3 years ago.
Hi Nessa, I'm not computer literate so I sent you the link here lol. The link you asked for to the Shell/Fan Blanket I'm making. If you have anymore questions, please don't hesitate to let me know.
thanks, no worries, I found it on her youtube channel. Thank you
@@infinitelyzero I'm so glad I could help. You are most welcome. You'll love Ursula's tutorial. I think her actual pattern is on her ravelry. You could ask her. Hugs
@@ginnyscraftroom sounds good, for now I have a few baby blankets and a little dress I need to make for my new baby cousin. The live in a very hot climate so they don't even want blankets, lol. I've just been so busy I haven't been able to make them yet but I do have lots of the mandala yarn and I love how it works up.
@@infinitelyzero I love the Mandala yarn too. Works up lovely with the shell stitch and you'll enjoy it.
@@ginnyscraftroom I have a small collection of mandala yarn here at my house and the smaller blanket and shawl I made which I show on my channel were made with mandala colorway Giant.
What’s the highest ply you can use on these machines
I think this will vary depending on where you are located - how your yarns are classified and the level of humidity where you live as well as the fiber content of your yarn. You should check what is recommended in the manual that came with your machine. From what Ive experienced an 8 to 9 ply and maybe some 10 ply's in the US (a DK weight cat 3 with some thinner category 4 worseted weight yarns) ... has to be on the thinner side and I have used 100% acrylic. I have never tried cotton or furry or thick yarns and I wouldn't recommend it or bamboo because it lacks stretch and the machines don't like fuzzy yarn. Some people have used these or thicker yarns and they talk about their experiences. Ive had issues with certain thicker 4 weight yarns- worsted weight here in the US like Red heart super saving, it might be the sizing on it and I had to pass it by dryer sheets and wash the yarn before using on the Sentro 48. My Addi King machine can take a 4 weight yarn no problem. I don't use thicker yarns on mine so not sure what the upper limits are exactly. I would refer back to your manual that came with the machine.
@@infinitelyzero thank you .. big help ,
@@Son0565 you're welcome. There is also a site called yarn sub where you can type in some of the names of the yarns I mentioned to find other similar yarns. I am not sure where you are located and which yarns are available to you but I can try to help you if you comment with the name of a few of the yarns.
@@infinitelyzero yep found that site
Tape the legs down it works
Ooh thanks for the recommendation, great idea. Thanks for watching and commenting.
That machine sound so bad
that is what it usually sounds like but it's not held down so it's hard to crank while standing up
