WOW! When you say you are making socks, you mean it!

I am in awe, Wooly! Also, what does CSM mean?

Circular Sock Machine

A little bit redundant, but I didn't name the things :D

Yep. I blew through all of the virgin sock yarn in the stash save for one ball of Opal I kept back to knit by hand. I have yarn for two pairs of Koigu socks that I'll handknit, plus an odd hank; although 5 hanks could grow up to be a shawl instead of socks! I also have one pair of CTH socks that I'll knit by hand, and a pair on needles now.

So see, I have a few weeks yet before I quit knitting socks for a while. Or maybe I'll finish the pair on needles and call a sock haitus. No more sock yarn for me for quite a while though!

"Wow" wooly that is impressive. Great colours too.

I am still looking for a sock knitting machine, I do not want to buy one via E-Bay, because I want to look at the machine first so I can see if it is in good working order, before I buy one

Those are some fine socks you've got there, Wooly!

Hi Wooly,

Oh my what beautiful colors in all those socks. Congratulations on getting them all done.

Hugs,

Nora

Luckily you're in Canada (I think); it seems that most of the sock machines being offered on ebay are in Canada. Maybe one will be offered that is within driving distance.

There are a couple of reputable restorers/resellers who won't sell you a lemon - they have reputations to maintain, after all.

Thanks Wooly, for this good information, I have bookmarked both of these sites. It looks like I have to safe up some money before I go any further.
