CSM tutorial - Knitting a Sock tube with Ribbing
Channel: Littlebean and Me
Date: 2018-01-24

Hey guys! This is a (relatively) brief tutorial on how i prefer to knit my socks on my CSM. I have an Erlbacher Gearhart Speedster machine, and I use my 60 stitch cylinder. I prefer to do 1x1 ribbing, and then hang the hem on my machine - eliminating the need to finish off the top of the sock manually, and creating a stretchy cuff. These particular socks are a commission knit, so they are "shorties" and only have 85 rows of stockinette. I hope you enjoy! 

I will be putting timestamps below here, for your reference :)  If you'd like to see a tutorial on heels and toes on this machine, please let me know in the comments section down below!
