Hi all. I'm a newbie to machine knitting as well as this group. I've been hand knitting for years and thought I would try MK to do the boring parts. Didn't realize how much more it would do until I bought an LK150 a couple of months ago! I've had two lessons from the woman who sold me the machine and has been machine knitting for years, and did one class with Susan Guagliumi on Craftsy. So far I've done several dish cloths 🙂 and a child's sweater which is being redone as I messed up the neck. Looking forward to exploring this site and meeting other MKers.

Welcome Vee!

Necklines can be tricky ... I suggest you use our neckline practice pattern. It a good way to try different techniques for both shaping necklines and for experimenting with finishing.
