In this knitting machine sweater tutorial, I show you my tips and tricks on using the Sentro 48 pin knitting machine to create panels. I also show you how to put these panels together to create an off shoulder sweater. This sweater consists of six panels seamed together. Also I think I forgot to mention at the very end, but weave in your ends!!!
Front/ Back Panels : 41 pins by 80 rows
Sleeve Panels : 35 pins by 84 rows
Off Shoulder Panels : 45 pins by 36 rows
** PRO TIP: make a tension square ! I didn't the first time I made this sweater which is why it came out so long and thneed like in that clip at the beginning of the video. This was my second time making the sweater, but honestly this was a really easy and quick (I finished in a day!) knitting machine project!
** A note on sizing : Always measure on yourself as you go and adjust pin / row amounts to your liking. 45 pins is the maximum stitch amount on a 48 pin knitting machine. If you need more room, I suggest creating additional panels, and seaming them together using the slip stitch seam technique.
