Whether you’re brand new to machine knitting or have been cranking for years, you’re in the right place. 📌 Your First Steps To get started, here are the first things I recommend: 1️⃣ Watch the Beginner’s Course (CMK or iCord depending on what you’re learning) 2️⃣ Introduce yourself in the community feed Tell us: - What machine you use (Addi, Sentro, etc.) - Your experience level - What you’re excited to learn - 3️⃣Participate and earn rewards by liking and commenting on other's posts. 💛 As you engage in the community and earn points, you’ll begin unlocking rewards starting at Level 2. You can see all of the rewards in the Classroom section. 💛 Our Community Culture We work hard to keep this a supportive, spam-free community where everyone feels comfortable asking questions and sharing their projects. A few quick reminders: • No spam or outside promotions • Be kind and supportive to other members • While we love all crafts, please keep posts focused on Circular Machine Knitting except for our Show & Tell Post on Sunday.
