Alright, the first step to getting wrought iron is to make some cast iron. I'll assume you already know how to do this. Once you have some cast iron, you'll need a 'finery forge' which will turn the cast iron into 'bloom.' Simply fill up the finery forge with cast iron, fuel it with 2 pieces of charcoal, and light it. When it's done, you'll have about a 50/50 split between bloom and slag. The slag is useless; you can toss it. Now, take you're bloom over to an anvil. You're going to need a smithy's hammer equipped for this to work. Under the metalworking section of the crafting menu, you'll see the 'wrought iron' button; it's at the bottom. You can use this at an anvil to make wrought iron. If you get cast iron, don't worry. You have, if I recall correctly, a 1/3 chance of getting wrought and a 2/3 chance of the bloom reverting to cast iron. If you've fiddled around with your nature/industry slider, the percentages may be different, but the process is the same.

I'm so sorry. But the Wiki helped me out better than your text wall.
