Panel Mode Tension Tips | Stop Dropped Stitches on Circular Knitting Machines

Panel mode is one of the trickiest settings on a circular knitting machine — especially the first and last needle, where dropped stitches and caught loops happen most often.

In this tutorial, I show how I personally use:
• My left hand to add light yarn tension instead of relying only on the tension bar
• My right hand to help the loops clear the first and last needles during panel mode

This method is based on my own experience using a central circular knitting machine, and it can also be applied to Addi circular knitting machines.
