Hi. I'm JC, and I want to share with you some aspects of my wonderful sock machines. I have a collection of about a dozen or so of these machines - all different on one way or another! None of these machines actually worked when I first got my hands on them, and trying to teach myself to use one without a manual took some doing!!! Once mastered, and running right, they're an absolute cinch to use, and I'm well and truly hooked on them. Hope you can see why!!
