…to the CSM is:
 …the kitchenering really piles up. ;o)
I did manage to finish one pair – these are my handspun made on the machine:
I’ll say it again in case you didn’t hear me the first time: These are made out of MY HANDSPUN and cranked ON A CSM. How FREAKING cool is that?!?!!? It took me two hours. TWO. HOURS. I can barely stand it. Oh and the fiber is the ‘Popsicle’ colorway from Amy in the plain old wool blend.
…now I just need to get the ribber to work and I’ll be cooking with gas ;o)
Two hours is fine and dandy, but is it … Fun? Relaxing? Or just a quicker sock?
Wow that’s fast! Very cool socks!
Very cool! And the socks are gorgeous!
Way cool! Great socks!
They are awesome!
If you came to knitting ,I’d kitchener those right up for you. I think I’m one of the few folks that actually like to kitchener.
That is way cool.
That’s way cool!
Handspun socks are very, very cool.
Sooo cool!!! Two hours for a pair of socks!!! Soooo cool!
Gosh, my heart just bleeds for you….
Very, very cool! I can’t get past dropping stitches. Waaaa!
That is sooo awesome! I wish I had a CSM just to knit DH’s socks!
Just awesome! Like Kristi said, I wish I had one for DH’s socks too!
If not for the money issue then I would so buy one of these! The handspun is beautiful. Like I said before, your family and friends had better be thinking “socks” for Christmas! If I lived closer then I’d come over for a visit and to hone my kitchener skills on your pile of sockage.
yowza! now those are some socks. Your handspun is so lovely. It’s taking everything in me to stay away from ebay right now :)
My GOD, woman. How much do you rent that machine out for?! I’d totally pay for an afternoon alone with it…
Wow! With a machine like that I could decimate my sock yarn stash!
Awsome handspun socks!!!
Oh my goodness!! That is so fast! The socks look great!
Beautiful, beautiful! Socks from your own handspun=marvelous! Umm, can I send you some of my sock yarn? ;-) just playing, but my goodness, that would sort of make purchasing as much sock yarn as you want not a problem, huh? Maybe I should look into this CSM?
Yeah, yeah, so the socks are gorgeous. But boo-freakin-whoo on the kitchnering!! Don’t mind me, I’m just jealous! :)
Those look awesome! Great job!
Hmmm… would it be too weird to admit liking the Kitchener stitch???
Two hours? Did you say two hours?!?!!! Wow…
That’s wild! They are awesome! I WANT A PAIR!
Wow – your own handspun and knit by machine!
They look great – love the colourway.
You will be unstoppable when you figure out the ribbing…
The socks are awesome and they would totally satisfy my problem of more handspun yarn on hand than socks finished. However, I know you enough to know that what you can accomplish in two hours would have me cursing and bursting into tears for days on end. Not everyone has found the machine to be a piece of cake, and you make it look way too easy!
Nonetheless I have been drooling over the old ones on eBay for many months now and again. Someday I may cave.
Great handspun!
Those are lovely!
Okay, question: Did you spin enough yarn in 2 hours, or did you knit them in 2 hours?
O.M.G. Totally cool. Plus you look like you’re standing in a tide pool even though your feet are fully dry.
Great crankin Jessie! Can’t beat it!
Umm can I just say that it has taken me 3 days to figure out what the deuce Kitchenering was! (read about it at the Yarn Harlot’s, no time wasted with a pesky dictionary, nope)Ummm that is the result of always grafting I guess.
Time for me to expand!
And furthermore…
I’m listening to “Drowned Wednesday” right now but saw the “Dresden Files” book on the sidebar. COOL! Now I’m heading over to audible.com. Tom and I both love the TV show.
Ah, great minds.
I am IMPRESSED! They are lovely! Who knew??
:)
I would be willing to kitchener up some for you if you want to pop some in the mail. I’m serious.
