Hi everyone,
I started machine knitting about a year ago just by trying and following youtube videos. There is a lot out there to get me started and I got more and more interested in it. Then a friend told me about this fantastic site and I subscribed after getting my second knitting machine. I now own a standard and a bulky.�� I was amazed by all the fantastic learning tutorials I found here and instantly was hooked. I have since learned so much. My first jumper that I made with the tools here turned out perfect and I am so enjoying the small successes. I knitted a long cardigan/coat, with hood and slits...handknitted the buttonholes and trims and it turned out exactly as I imagined. I would love to join the Knit-Alongs, but the time difference to Australia means I have to get up at 1 in the morning � and that is hard. So, I am hoping I can access them later somehow. Can't wait to start my next project.

Hi Simone
I'm a fellow Aussie, and I've been machine knitting for just a couple of years.
All the resources here blew me away too. I sometimes listen to the replays - I don't get up for them in the middle of the night either!

Hi Australian machine knitters,I use the replays all the time as the time difference doesn’t suit me either.I have subscribed to knit it now for a few years now.It is like being in school...except all the resources are at our fingertips...excellent YouTube videos....sue from Sydney nsw.

Is there anyone from Melbourne may be interested in meeting up occasionally once we are out of this covid lockdown? I have been knitting for about a year and am well and truly addicted, but there is a lot to learn still!! Madeleine

Hi Madeleine
I'm from NSW, not Melbourne - otherwise I would be happy to meet up. I hope you find a fellow Melbournian. And I hope you're going OK down there - what a year! At least you picked a good time to get addicted to machine knitting!

I am in Albany WA. It is so good to meet in person with knitters in the area. 3 of us meet once a month and exchange news and tips and what we learn and try...Melbourne is much bigger hopefully you find a few knitters 🧵🧵🧵
