- E-wrapping by hand can be difficult for some machine knitters. Here is a simple way to do it using your Brother KX 350 or Singer/ Silver Reed LK150.

Y'all I made a newbie mistake. Make sure your carriage is on the right side of the bed to start. I was trying to do this starting from the left. That don't make an e and it won't work. Hopefully this helps some people. Thank you for your videos Anna.
Thanks I'm left handed and couldn't figure out why it wasn't working now easy pezzy
hola compre una brother 350, soy de Argentina o sea hablo español, y sólo viendo tu video pude aprender a enhebrar la maquina gracias!!!! saludos
¡Muy bueno! Gracias!
Oh wow, simple and genius. Thank you.
Thanks!
This is pure genius! Thank you!
Your videos are so easy to follow. I have a singer lk100 bulky machine and can use your instructions. Thank you so much
Great to hear!
Got it! With lk150 you have to make sure carriage is on tge right and pull out needle is UNDER the yarn
Thanks!
This is brilliant 👏 thanks again Anna 🌺
I'm thinking of buying one of these machines. I thank you so much for the instructional videos. I think I'm going to go ahead and pull the trigger thanks to you I hope you put out a lot more videos
Great! Let me know if you need help.
just purchased one of these machines thank you for the great tutorial
Excellent instructions! Thank you
Hi Anna, glad I found your channel...this is brilliant. Thank you for sharing!!! I actually just got my KX350 out but miss placed my cast on comb.
Hi Anna ... what is the advantage of doing the e-wrapping as explained in the second half of your video (waste yarn and ravel cord) compared to e-wrapping as shown in the first half? .... btw, very usefull video, thanks!
When you use the waste yarn, you have something to put the weights on right away. This can be helpful if you're using delicate or fine yarn that might get distorted or snagged with weights on the edge. It also knits off a bit smoother with the waste yarn but the first way is faster. It's really just two ways of doing the same thing and ultimately comes down to personal preference and the yarn you use.
I was wondering the same thing. Thank you for the question and explanation!
Anna, I love your videos. They incredible helpful. Do you know anything about the KX 390. I’m hoping the KX 350 is similar.
Yes, it's very similar but the KH 390 is convertible so it can do standard gauge or bulky gauge. The KX 350 is mid-gauge but you could do most projects using the bulky gauge on your machine and lowering the tension. The levers will all work the same way. I have a KH 400 which is very similar to the KH 390. Thanks!
@@AnnaHaferman Bless you Sweetie. Been using the Addi Kingsize and express for years, and wanted a proper knitting machine… all my jumpers have join lines down the front and back 😂
I was out bid a few times on EBay on a KX 350 so was hoping the 390 was similar as there were no videos on it. But now I know I can follow the 350 patterns. Thank You so much for your time ❤️
@@SaffyFoo I’ll try to do a video on the KH 400 some day. It’s pretty much the same as the KH 390.
@@AnnaHaferman Bless you Darling,
Thank you thats is very kind 😁👍❤️😊
What do we change both side buttons to on the LK150. This is great.
Put all four levers forward for the cast-on. When you are ready to knit the second row, push the two levers furthest from you back.
This is a great demo
The side levers should be forward, on the circle. The Russell levers also should be forward on II.
Hi Anna,
I’m knew on knitting machine but I’ve decided to buy a kx350 and follow your tutorials. I have a question. … can I use fingering yarn for the socks you have on your channel? Thank you kindly
Fingering yarn is probably too thin for the KX350 but if you use two strands it would work.
Thank you so much !
I'm new to machine knitting and was curious what the waste yarn cast on does differently. Is it for projects where you need to connect garments? Or does it help get a more even edge?
It's just a different way to get the same result, which could come in handy in different applications. For instance, if you were working with a very delicate yarn and needed to hang weights right away, you could hang it on the waste yarn.
can you please do a video on tension, my fabric is curling I was using Patton home decor yarn
It’s normal for knitting to curl, especially stockinette stitch. It’s not a tension issue. There are some stitch patterns that don’t curl as much but usually you have to deal with the curl with blocking and adding edges or seams.
@@AnnaHaferman thank you so much,
Can you ewrap when taking it off also, so it will not unravel?
Not really. You can create the same kind of edge but you would have to do a backstitch bind-off by hand with a darning needle.
Just started using the kx350, but the carriage keeps getting stuck. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong
Have you changed your sponge bar?
@@AnnaHaferman yes
What size yarn are you using?
@@AnnaHaferman it's getting stuck without any yarn, but the yarn I planned on using is fingering weight
@@luvlyerdj93 Look on the underside of the carriage and see if anything seems misaligned. Make sure there is no yarn wrapped around the wheels and that the wheels rotate freely. Make sure all the flippers move and check if there are any screws coming loose.
I know me again. Tried it was still left with open stitches at hem. Having devil of a time casting on, no matter the method
Have you changed the sponge bar in your machine?
@@AnnaHaferman yes..its a month old
Hi dear, I would like to aske you about my knitting machine? How can I contact you?
Thanks for watching!
