Hi
I’m looking for anyone that has Skype on their PC who might be able to help me.
I’ve hand knitted for years but about a month ago I was given a
Brother knitting machine with lots of attachments and I don’t know were to
start as I have never used one before. I’m keen to learn, but we have no
clubs were I live and I know no-one with a machine who can help me - hence my request for someone with Skype.
Thank you, Ann

Hi Ann, If you will email me I will give you my skype address or you can give me yours, then we can get you knitting on the machine hopefully.

Hi there
I have Skype and can give you some of my help if you like? Evenings are best with me, 8.30pm onwards or odd times in the day. I am new to Skype by the way. I have many knitting machines and have been knitting on and off for over 20 years.
Also, try "youtube" on the internet, search for "machine knitting" you will find lots of great videos on there too, to help you in the meanwhile.
cheers
