CSM Hints and Tips - Round, no-wrap, no dog-ear toes

[@anitastewart2657]

Just ordered my CSM from Earlbacher 2 days ago and can’t wait for the next 15 weeks to pass until I have my machine. I’ve watched multiple videos over the last 4+ years while I practiced on my 2 Addi machines which I hope helps shorten my learning curve. Your videos are so well done and you make your verbal explanations so clear I feel I’m going to have success from the start. Thank you for your time spent making these videos.

Thank you for enabling closed captioning!!!!!!

Thank you so much for your video. I finally finished my first pair of socks that I’m satisfied with🎉 you are a great teacher. But The kitchener stitch part is very difficult to understand

[@mstinkagain]

Wow, your explanation is so clear! Thank you for showing us the toe clearly!

[@curlycords]

Thank you for this wonderful clear demonstration. This was so extremely helpful as I ALWAYS wanted to know how to eliminate those dog - ear toes and heals on the sock. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.

[@annecain3301]

A really great video. Clear views of the cylinder and needles as well as a running commentary as each stage is being taken. Thank you very much. kindest regards.

I add the stitch markers while the sock is still on the machine, as I find it easier to identify the stitches.

Thank you! I had just received my Earlbacher CSM 3 days ago. I’m in Alaska, so the delivery’s are late in the afternoon. I set up, got my supplies in order oiled everything and went to work. I got several partial projects done, ( getting a feel for the process)... I was doing well-then today happened.. no matter what I did I couldn’t get a feel for anything. Tension, weights... everything.. then I watched this video and realized what was missing.. My Zen was off kilter 😂 I went back to my machine this evening and it all fell into place. Thanks for being a calming influence for me this evening.

What a fantastic and professional video to enjoy - congratulations I understood everything you said and demonstrated it is a pity others didn't take a leaf out of your book

[@camelheights]

Thank you so very much for this video!!!! It has helped me make a fabulous heel!! Hope you have a video on the ribber!! That is my next challenge. Thanks!!

[@blindnmorethan1eye]

Thank you for posting this well made video. Now all I need is to figure out the pattern for a size 6 on my 64/64 Speedster. Got a lot of testing to do. ❤️

[@knit1924]

Hi Mr. Ashton, please do a video specifically about doing the heel: decreases and increases. I can't seem to do it without getting the little hole after doing the increases. One side is great, the other side has a hole and I don't understand why. Thank you for the great videos.

[@annuk03]

Wonderful! Thank you so much for making this video to help us!

Hi Steve I’m in Scotland just order my arlbacher machine like to use some 3 ply cashmere from Tod n Dunken do you think the 80 needles or 84 will be better

[@jeremyearl396]

I’m looking for a video that shows me how high and how close to put my yarn carrier. Thank you so much for what yo do

[@sheilaearl2539]

Hello Steve, thank you for all the tutorials. I have done so well with you, however, i am scared to death of my ribber and have been looking for a beginner tutorial on that subject. I haven’t been successful in finding one, do you have any suggestions. Thanks ever so much

[@johnruschki2377]

Thank you for your videos🙏🌟

[@janestewart416]

Very informative!!! Thank you

[@krystianwisniewski9857]

Hi could you please let me know the cylinder and ribber 80 needles what size of socks you can make on that setting that’s what I find difficult to decide like that idea of different ribber combinations regards Krystian

[@ednawelthorpe5578]

Thanks for putting up this wonderful guide. I'm wondering about closing the toe at the end though. You start with it rightside out, and number markers 1 - 4. Are the numbers on the other side identical, or reversed? What's confusing me is, once you do the final 4 (marked) stitches, are you still doing "Go around No. 3 and in 2, etc... or because the sock is now inside out, is it different? Do you just do exactly as with the first 4 stitches, or are the stitch numbers reversed? Just can't figure out how it works if it's the same when rightside out as inside out?

[@KarlSmith-p5r]

Do you give private lessons via Zoom? I would be very interested.

[@margaretmiller320]

thank you , what a great video Now i just need to do it

[@pollyfoofoo8703]

[@helenbugsynelson]

I've wanted a circular sock machine for years. I keep watching CSM tutorials and videos like yours trying to soak up as much information as possible until my miracle happens😉😇. Did you have your Erlbacher sent up from the USA, or did you go on a road trip and pick it up in person?

[@TheWizardofBC]

I had one of my Erlbacher machines sent to my house and one sent to a friend in Port Angeles, WA that I picked up. Of course I paid SGT on both. The difference was the shipping amount. I saved just under $300.00cdn by having it shipped to a US address and picking it up. But of course you would have to have a US address or a friend. And then cross the border to get it and declare it upon your return.

[@helenbugsynelson]

@@TheWizardofBC , I hope the borders open soon. I have relatives in Washington and California

[@caraseggelke1733]

How do I go about getting one of these knitting machines?

[@glenndawright2227]

Why do you wrap at the end if you cut and move yarn?

[@TheWizardofBC]

I am not sure I understand the question. Can you give me the time counter number where you are asking about?

[@glenndawright2227]

@@TheWizardofBC thank you for the quick response. At 15:20 when you finish the toe and add the waste yarn...

[@TheWizardofBC]

@@glenndawright2227 The wrap closes the small hole at the corner.

[@glenndawright2227]

@@TheWizardofBC I understand that part but when you wrap with the work yarn, you then remove the wrap and do something with the waste yarn. Just trying to figure that part out. I love the video by the way. This is how I am learning the the right way.

[@rosannadiletti9021]

Can you tell me what machine you are knitting on. Great video. Thinking of investing in a sock knitting machine

[@TheWizardofBC]

This is a Speedster model from the Erlbacher Knitting Machine Company.

[@stitcherscottage]

[@HelenSiersKnittingfingers]
