That’s brilliant! I’m brand new to circular knitting and I’m very grateful for learning your technique early on. Now I’ll go finish off my first beanie. Thank you!!

[@sherryloveland7893]

Very nice clean look. Thank you.

[@missapippin9020]

Beautiful and so neat. Definitely making the extra effort to sew the edges together gives it a much smoother and neater finish. Thank you ❤️🇦🇺

[@Nanapwc]

Where do the fuzzy pompoms come from to match the beanie yarn?

[@ForTwnT420]

Just wondering how to find the beginning and end of your stitches or of that just comes with practice thank you for another awesome tutorial

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Your cast on / cast off yarn tail will give you a good guidance where the beginning and end of your stitches are, as it’ll be popping out where the stitches end / start

[@emilyjeanharry]

Hello! How do you thread the beginning? I am having trouble! I can cast off straight from the machine but the beginning of the tube, how do I keep that from unraveling?

[@bunnyhoule324]

great idea , I will try this , what kind of thread did you use for the pompom to attach it to the button

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

The threat was already attached as part of the PomPom. When I make them I use 0.8mm para cord.

[@bunnyhoule324]

How to make reversible benni

[@kate_bujo_journy2700]

What size yarn do u use please. I try so hard and mine seems so holey and not as tight as in your videos. Xxx

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

I use worsted / aran weight yarn.

[@krystalwhitney3505]

This is a cool way to do this. Kinda looks like a pink bum part peeking out 😅

[@estherespinoza4092]

How many rows was this beanie?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

It’s so long since I made it I can’t remember, I’m sorry.

[@chi_ria18th34]

Can’t you just do that on the machine? Put the first stitches back on each needle and cast off ?

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

If you wanted to you could definitely try that.

[@chi_ria18th34]

@@SnufflebeanYarn I’m blind in my right eye and have glaucoma in my left eye so its hard for me to sew. Hopefully it works for me.

[@JipseeGirl]

This is just complicated for me.

[@SnufflebeanYarn]

Each to their own, hopefully you find a method that works for you 😀
