Tension and Swatching
In this video, I talk about tension. Finding a 'sweet spot'. Watching your yarn to find a fabric you like and it not hard to crank.
I am using a 64 stitch cylinder on my Erlbacher Gearhart Speedster.
I also half a half weight on for my heel spring.
The yarn is unknown.
Join me on my journey!
Have fun experimenting with all different yarns.

I am so glad it was helpful. Sometimes when explaining something I get caught up in my own thoughts

That's what makes the video's so good. It's real life and shows you're passion to the craft. And emphasizes what you say about practice or trial and error. It was all very clear and visable. Tension is perfectly explained and visualised. ❤️❤️❤️❤️💯💯💯
I get so excited when I see that you’ve uploaded another cranking video!! You’ve been in my craft room on the screen for many a project, and I thank you for sharing your knowledge. Your Socktober series was wonderful - I hope you do something similar in the future. It made such a difference when I was a rank beginner and really struggling.

I would love to do another socktober series. But I would also like to try and be more consistent with posting cranking videos through the month/year. I am glad it helped you. That is my main goal, to just help. It can feel like a struggle when we are home and no one else has a machine right by your side. So many of us aren't going to have a close friend who also lives 10 mins away. 😊
OMGosh. I cringed so hard when you made those stitches so tight.
