from 54 reviewsThe CSM is well made, I love using it. It's a steep learning curve but the support from Caroline and Rachel has been great.

Love this beautiful machine! Runs so smooth , excellent quality.
Looking forward to cranking!!!!

I had never used a CSM before but I wanted to be able to knit sock tubes to add toes and heels (the interesting part). The setup was easy as I used the bonnet. I had a problem with the first rows though until I realized that I needed weights. I hadn't purchased weights as I'm in the UK, but I found that a can of lentils placed in the bonnet worked perfectly. A tube for three pairs of socks took less than two hours - I just need to find time now to knit the toes and heels!

Here is the first pair of toe up socks off the bear Valley machine. Thank you again Rachel

I cannot recommend this CSM enough. Easy to set up and understand, I was knitting beautiful socks within a day of setting it up. The stitch definitions and tension is perfect. The mechanism is smooth and easy. After sale support from Rachel and Caroline is fantastic too if you have any questions .

Can always depend on quality items and service from Rachel

I am very excited about receiving this machine from my husband! Starting was more error than success, but am making small successes! Right now am struggling with dropped stitches and tension errors on the heel. I found many of the online videos helpful, but not specific to this machine, ie, where on the “clock” should the main mark and halfway mark be for heels. I am confident that I am making it up the bell curve, and will do a happy dance when I complete that first sock! Right now I am very proficient at picking up stitches and casting on, both with and without a bonnet (which I was able to complete!)! Not too bad for first week!

Very happy with my purchase of the sock bonnet it’s well made with lovely yarn and it arrived very quickly well packaged thank you I recommend this seller

The best customer service.

beautifully made, just need to find a suitable table to mount it on and get cranking :)

I love my new csm. Spent months researching which type to purchase and which one would fit into my budget. Am so glad I chose Sound Yarn & Fibre. It’s worth every penny. Rachel was very patient answering all my questions. I ended up getting the csm, all the cylinders, yarn mast and tool box. Thank you very much Rachel..

I looked it over and it seems strong and the right size. I thought the grey on the bottom was interesting. I wondered if it was for reinforcement or differentiation. I still have to use it. Working on a ten sock colorwork project right now from the 54 needle cylinder now. I plan to use this cylinder for my grandchildren. Thank you!

a few minor things were missing but sent out right away.
would suggest that maybe a little info on heel forks would be good for the beginner.
good customer service-no complaints
machine works as it is supposed to!!

The CSM is well made and works well. The customer service is amazing and I am thankful to finally be fulfilling my dream of a CSM machine.
