This technique will STOP the edges of your flat panel from curling!
With a bit of ribbing on all four edges, your flat panel will actually stay flat! This little trick works on both the Addi Pro (22 needle) and Addi King (46 needle) knitting machines, with any size flat panel.

If you dont want the ribbing, you can use a steamer, like for clothing, to get the curl out of the panels. It actually works really well.

Hello, I have tried the on addi ribbing and after ... It is easier to do it after the fabric is off the machine but would you say the ribbing is more regular one way or the other? Is ribbing off the machine creating more gaps? And thank you for all your videos, you are definitely one of my go to places!

@YayForYarn 5 лет назад

Thanks so much! I think the ribbing would come out a bit more even when done on the machine, but if you prefer doing it off of the machine, any uneven stitches can be adjusted. To even out the fabric, you can give it a good stretch in several directions. If a stitch is too tight, you can pull on it with a loom pick to loosen it. If a stitch is too loose, you can pull on the stitches on either side of it with a loom pick to make it a little tighter. Hope this helps!

Can you do rib stitches on the tubular setting?

@YayForYarn 2 года назад

Hi Morgan. Yes, you can do ribbing in the round, since the Addi has an even number of needles. I hope this helps!

@juliebourgeois9133 Год назад

hello, can we use fingering yarn and will it do a perfect tight stitch? thank you

@YayForYarn Год назад

Hi Julie. Yes, you can use fingering yarn, but the gauge / needle size on the Addi machine is not adjustable. So it will not do tight stitches. It would be like knitting fingering yarn on about a size 9 knitting needle. I hope this helps!

@HodgePodgeHarmony 4 года назад

If you are doing a long piece, like a scarf, could you rub the sides as you go, say every five rows or so? I can’t imagine having to try to rib an entire length of a scarf at the end!

@YayForYarn 4 года назад

Hi Vicki! Yes, you can rib the sides in smaller sections if you prefer. I hope this helps!

@HodgePodgeHarmony 4 года назад

Thank you!

@jenniebugs1 2 года назад

Is it possible (and easier) to gently steam a curly panel instead, using a damp cloth?

@YayForYarn 2 года назад

Yes, steaming a panel can help with the curl slightly, but without any edge treatment worked into the fabric, steaming alone will not stop it from curling.

@leticiagarcia2159 5 лет назад

Am interested in buying the small addi, but I have a question for you, would it be posible to knit a panel using 11 needles 3 inches long then remove the panel secure the stitches with stitch markers then knit another panel same dimensions as the first one leave the second one on the machine, then put back the first one on the remaining empty needles and continue knitting now all around, do you think that could be posible?

@YayForYarn 5 лет назад

Hi Leticia! Yes, you can do that on the Addi Pro to create a tube that "splits" into two flat panels. This No-Curl technique would help make the finishing work on those panels a bit easier. :) (You wouldn't need to put the ribbing all the way across the tops of the panels before beginning the tube part, just on the sides.) Hope this helps!

@leticiagarcia2159 5 лет назад

Thank you for your fast response, another question what number do you use on your yarns and brands, I like the yarns that you use on your tutorials 😊.

@YayForYarn 5 лет назад

I usually use a #4 Worsted Weight or #5 Bulky Weight yarn on my Addi. Most of the yarns I use in my tutorials are worsted weight acrylics. Hope this helps! Thanks!

@ruth8756 4 года назад

To put back a stitch, do I place the loop into the red teeth or into the white needle to continue knitting the stitch?

@YayForYarn 4 года назад

Hi Ruth! If you want to put a stitch back on the needle, you'll need to place the loop around the white needle and make sure the hook part of the needle is grabbing the loop as it goes down into the machine. If the hook part does not grab the loop, then when the needle comes back up, the stitch will be dropped. I hope this helps!

Have been stuck for days, trying different way, spending hrs and getting shoulder pain trying to put stitches back and getting dropped again and again. Will do it as you say.

@cullengu5895 Год назад

Does it have to be long tail/e wrap cast on?

@YayForYarn Год назад

Yes. The regular "cast on" technique that the instruction manual shows (when you weave the yarn in front of one needle, behind the next, in front of the next, behind the next, etc) is not a permanent cast on. It is just a row of upside-down live stitches with a strand of yarn threaded through them, which can be unraveled if you pull that strand out. That is fine for projects where you are going to cinch or gather the end of the panel by pulling on the cast on tail. But for projects where you need a finished edge, you'll want to use the long tail or e-wrap cast on techniques shown in other videos on my channel. Neither of those cast on techniques can be easily unraveled. I hope this helps!

@WillowTreePottery 3 года назад

Question: Will adding a couple of rows of crochet ribbing or sc accomplish a similar outcome

@YayForYarn 3 года назад

Hi Kathy. If you add some crochet ribbing, that may help prevent the panel from curling, but single crochet alone won't do it. With just single crochet, the strip of single crochet will fold forward where the piece would want to curl. I have not tried crochet ribbing for this, but I would think that would be more likely to work than single crochet. I hope this helps!

@vivlee3840 2 года назад

How wide is the actual flat panel on this machine please?

@YayForYarn 2 года назад

Hi. The exact measurement of the panel will depend on the thickness of the yarn you're using and how much tension you put on the yarn, so I can't give a width measurement for that. However, the Addi Pro has 22 needles, and the Addi King has 46. I hope this helps!

@janetdw Год назад

Since this is over four years old as I am viewing it, I doubt you’ll see this, but just in case: When I used to hand knit, and I wanted the edges not curly, I did garter stitch like you have the vertical ribbing. I don’t have a machine yet, so I’m trying to visualize this. When you drop all your stitches and rework them with the crochet hook, you’re essentially purling, correct? If so, would it be possible to do a garter stitch instead of ribbing if you didn’t want to lose any of the width of the piece? It seems like you could drop your current stitch, then rework it in the opposite direction like you are with your ribbing for five stitches and then go on with your straight knitting and do that every other row. I think it would be a lot less frustrating for me to rework one stitch 5 times (every other row) than to do an entire column and risk twisting a stitch or getting them out of order. I’ll be surprised if I hear from you, but I’ll be very grateful.

@YayForYarn Год назад

Hi Janet! It would be possible to rework the edges into garter stitch instead of ribbing. Yes, dropping the stitch and reworking it in the opposite direction is the equivalent of purling on this type of machine. I hope this helps!

@Steffielea 2 года назад

I’ve been trying to do this all day without any luck so far. My ends keep dropping or skipping.

@YayForYarn 2 года назад

Hi! Are you having trouble with the edge stitch dropping off the machine? If so, you need to make sure that you turn the machine far enough so that the working yarn is pulled down below the red tab after the last working needle. If the yarn does not go below the red tab before you turn the work and knit back across, the edge stitch won't catch properly, and it can cause the edge stitch to fall off or come unraveled. I hope this helps!

Are you referring to the cast on technique? I have two different methods of creating a permanent cast on: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-if1ToE2eDOo.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Jbcsn9x0CJ8.html Either of those techniques will work. I hope this helps!

@HodgePodgeHarmony 4 года назад

I am so disappointed that I tried this on a scarf and had absolutely no success; just as curled on the sides as it was before 😢

@YayForYarn 4 года назад

Hi! If the edges are still curling, have you blocked your scarf? Blocking relaxes the fabric, and can help calm the curl. I have a video on blocking here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-imZ6xIQs79k.html I hope this helps!
