, by . 2 Comments

Machine Knitters are often forgotten about so if you are feeling a little lonely in your hobby then check out these online machine knitting groups.

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/KMaholics/

This group originated in Belgium (March 2006) and started with a handful of French-speaking knitters.
It quickly grew into an international board with 157 members as of today (7 October 2006).
All our messages are in both French and English. Some members translate their own messages and, for the rest, I translate them myself.
All makes of knitting machines are represented. Any knitting level, from beginner to expert.
We share our experience and experiments, our problems and solutions, help each other and try to give as many hints and tips as we can.
The group is strictly moderated and every member and message has to be approved. This is because each message has to be translated but also to avoid nasties reaching our resources.
We have a database, links, photo albums and files at our members’ disposal.
Please visit, join and enjoy – Loulou

KnittingMachines
A gathering place for knitting machine enthusiasts.
We share ideas and seek solutions to knitting problems.

Wisconsin Machine Knitting Guild
We are an online yahoo group based guild accepting members from Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois, Michigan and Minnesota. We have a free site and publish a free monthly newsletter packed with patterns, tips, and interesting articles.

Our purpose is to establish a network of local machine knitters, and machine knitting clubs to further the craft. We are not affiliated with any dealership or yarn distributor. We hope this will lead to sharing of ideas, activities and promotion of machine knitting locally; to attract new knitters to our craft, and give them local support to continue. Seminars, workshops and get-togethers are starting to happen in a small way. We have an annual face to face get together that grows in size each year.

Knitting Pattern – Adorable Teddy Bear Cardigan For Baby

As a knitter, I am always on the lookout for new and interesting patterns to add to my collection. Recently, I came across Sirdar’s TEDDY BEAR CARDIGANS IN SNUGGLY SNOWFLAKE CHUNKY, design number 5404. This pattern caught my attention because of its adorable teddy bear motif pockets, and the fact that it comes in two different styles – a V-neck and shawl collar version.

The fluffy Snuggly Snowflake Chunky yarn that is used in this pattern adds an extra touch of warmth and coziness.

I have to admit, I haven’t had the chance to knit this pattern yet, but it’s definitely on my list of patterns to complete this year. The fact that it is classified as an easy level makes it accessible for knitters of all skill levels and I’m excited to give it a try. The pattern includes detailed instructions and charts, making it easy for knitters to follow along and create a beautiful and functional piece.

I love the idea of the teddy bear pockets and I can imagine how adorable it would look on a baby. The fact that the pattern comes in two different styles gives me the flexibility to choose the one that best suits my needs or preferences.

I am excited to add this pattern to my list of projects to complete this year. I believe that this pattern is a great choice for knitters looking for a cute and cozy project that is easy to make. I can’t wait to start knitting and see the final product.
