This weekend I received the Legare sock machine I won on eBay. This beauty is about a hundred years old, but in amazing condition. It took a few days of fiddling and research before I could get it to knit. I had to replace the old, bent tension spring with a rubber O-ring, and I need to order some new needles since I have very few replacements should one bend or break. Otherwise, it works like new. Lovely little piece of history, and it can knit a pair of socks in an hour or two.
I'll post a pic of the socks it makes once I have a chance to play with it again (busy with work during the week).
