Machine Knitting Techniques Workshop
Taking a machine knitting techniques workshop will ensure your garments look professionally made.
Machine Knitting has been part of my adult life and although I don’t knit as much as I used to, I still machine knit and love to teach.
I’m teaching a Machine Knitting Techniques Workshop to a group of knitters in Omemee and have been making samples like crazy! 3 kinds of buttonholes, different methods of casting on, pockets, a few trims, “join-as-you-go” and even putting in a zipper.
My notes are carefully re-written and I’m ready to go. It’s a hands-on kind of workshop and that’s the way I like it. Here are some photos of the machine knitting techniques we’ll cover:

It promises to be a great day in a machine knitting techniques workshop, fun, and friendship.
Do you, or someone you know own and use a knitting machine?
Is there a machine knitting guild in your area? If you’re within a few driving hours of Trenton Ontario, I could teach YOUR group, too.

Hopefully, you’ll do another closer to home!
I’d love to do another one closer to home, we’d need space and a group of machine knitters. I do charge, please email me for more information at yvettechilcott at yahoo dot ca
