Notes

I can crank socks for you. Your yarn, my machine. PM for details and prices or ask what I have for sale.

I used the below calculations.

The finished sock fit a size 5-6 just fine.

My Machine setting is 2 near the Cylinder, one click tighter than the socks CSM #7.

Knit is nice and tight. Sock fit a size 8.5 before washing. Shrunk in the dryer, looks like it will fit a size 6 now.

After Washing

RPI 13

Conclusion.
I like the fabric, so if I keep this setting, will need about 12 to 13 more rounds.
