Machine knitting

I have enjoyed knitting since I was 8 years old and so when I had to choose my specialization in my new school after highschool I could not decide between sewing and machine knitting. In the end i didn't go to that school but I had some private lessons with a second hand machine and I quickly found out that I didn't enjoy machine knitting at all. It was completely different than what I was used to do and I had to learn a new set of skills. I loved the end result but i always forgot how to do things and I was afraid of breaking something every time I used it. So i never practiced between every lesson and in the end I didn't learn.
I really have bad memories of it and it's a pity. I will stick to the slow method of hand knitting that I just use to relax and unwind. I will not be a professional maker and that is okay.

It's a small issue, but it might be good to observe title capitalisation rules.

I have enjoyed knitting since I was 8 years old, and so when I had to choose my specialization in my new school after high school, I could not decide between sewing and machine knitting.

(1) Since this is a lengthy sentence, some comma breaks will be good.
(2) "High school" should always be spelt as two words.

In the end i, I didn't go to that school, but I had some private lessons with a second -hand machine and I quickly found out that I didn't enjoy machine knitting at all.

(1) Again, comma breaks in a lengthy sentence will make it easier on the reader.
(2) "Second-hand" should be hyphenated. "Second hand" means something else.
(3) The "I" can be omitted to avoid excessive repetition of "I".

It was completely different than what I was used to doing and I had to learn a new set of skills.

Alternatively: "It was completely different than what I used to do". There's a slight difference in meaning, but the two phrases are similar enough.

I loved the end result, but iI always forgot how to do things and I was afraid of breaking something every time I used it.

(1) Comma breaks would be good.
(2) Again, the "I" can be omitted.

So iI never practiced between everyach lesson and in the end I didn't learn much.

I will not be a professional makknitter and that is okay.

"Maker" is too general a term and quite unnatural here.

Enjoyment is the most important aspect of a hobby! It's good that machine knitting didn't tarnish your love for hand knitting.

Anyway, overall, there are two main points you need to take note of:
(1) Be more liberal in your use of commas, especially when dealing with long sentences with many conjunctions such as "but", "and", and "so".
(2) Try to avoid excessive repetition of certain words or phrases (such as "I") in the same sentence, as that can make it appear clunky.

I have enjoyed knitting since I was 8 years old and so. Therefore, when I had to choose my specialization in my new school after high school, I could not decide between sewing and machine knitting.
