General Knitting

Hi Everyone. I am new and started to learn to knit two years ago. I have a knitting machine also and made a few hats. My goal now is to learn to read patterns. Any suggestions please

Welcome to the forum!
Patterns are a language all to themselves that you learn by doing. Find something that you would like to make and then take it step by step. We’ll be happy to help along the way with any questions or interpretations.
What would you like to start with?

A shawl is a good idea and this one has enough going on to keep you interested.

That said, would you delete the second half of the pattern please? We can’t post large portions of patterns due to designer copyright.
Does this pattern have a name and designer? That information is always helpful.

I am slowly doing it but hopefully will have enough yarn

We don’t often get to see machine knits. This is a cute, cozy hat. Thanks for posting!

Question because I am new to this. Can I share a pattern link instead of coping like what i accidentally did?

A pattern link is perfect. That way we’re not posting large portions of a designer’s work.
