Machine Knitting


A Taste of Machine Knitting (in person)
- Jun 01, 2024 09:00 am

Curious about machine knitting? This class will give you the opportunity to decide if machine knitting is for you before committing to the investment in equipment. Or maybe you inherited a machine and you would like to learn to use it. This class is for you! You'll learn how to cast on and bind off, how to increase and decrease, and how to troubleshoot errors (which WILL occur, just like in hand knitting). You will see samples of what is possible with a knitting machine and develop an understanding of how using a machine can enhance your hand knitting. By the end of the class, you will have created a cast-on rag that can be used for provisional cast-ons in your hand knitting and any future machine knitting you may do!

Cost: $ 65.00
