Sock it to me

Such a little thing, but a joy. A contact on Ravelry had made kiddie socks using every other needle on her machine, but with a hung hum. She wondered about using a rib. Well, I wondered too, and it does work - every other ribber needle and every other main cylinder needle in place. The machine behaved beautifully and I think I can use this model to teach students at the museum. Half the work, half the time, and probably half the frustrations and twice the satisfaction.
