In this class, I will guide you step by step into the magical world of machine knitting. You will learn how to set up and thread your machine, cast on stitches, knit your first rows, and understand how increases and decreases work. Together, we will create your very first piece on the machine!

Our class project will be a pair of Ruffled Wrist Warmers, which are a beautiful, beginner-friendly accessory designed to help you experience the magic of machine knitting while finishing a wearable piece during the class. The project features:
A delicate ruffled edge
A shaped thumb opening
Clean finishing techniques
A refined, modern look that appeals to knitters of all levels
