CSM ....circular sock knitting machinel

This is it. She arrived very well packed and in very good condition. There is a learning curve. I have her set up and am preparing to knit the first pair of socks on her.

I have knit a few pairs on a double bed knitting machine and it wasn't too terribly complicated. I can already apply many of the same principles here, the difference being that I am not dealing with the 2nd bed.

I also set up my knitting machine and made a few sock blanks for custom dyeing. They are knit rectangles that can be dyed and create an exact second sock if you double the knit. The theory is that you dye the two strands and knit from the blank as you deknit the yarn from the blank.

I'll post pictures as soon as I can.

I've been working nights and my hours are all turned around. I'll be back on days by the end of the week.
