Long Time crafter, first time poster.
I have been knitting since I was pregnant with my first child (in 2002) and have been crocheting EVEN LONGER! Most of what I make are gifts. I am sure to make something for myself every now and again. It has been such a source of peace and joy.
Well…I have been on the interweb…the YouTube and the TikTok…and I kept seeing these circular knitting machines. I have always been interested in a knitting machine but they are big and scary and expensive…so I thought to myself…let’s try this trend.
I got my first circular knitting machine, that’s right I said first, and it changed EVERYTHING!
I ordered this puppy in early May.I made a luvy bear, a dozen beanies, 3 scarves, a pumpkin, and a blanket!
I then bought the 40 pin and the 22 pin machines.
I started taking requests from my kids and their friends. I totally binged YouTube videos and practiced, practiced, practiced.
By the time July came around, I was ready for Christmas in July. This is a crafters thing (originally) because it takes time to make hand made good for friends and family.
WOW! I am flying through my Christmas List and I LOVE the products I am making!!!
The 2 red hats are Reversible Fair Isle hats with school colors on one side and simple Christmas colors on the other!
