no wheel is for making the wool you have to knit the socks

I haven't used a knitting wheel, but I think turning the heel would be rather difficult...actually, after looking up a picture of one, I don't think it can be done. I suppose you could use a flat-needle sock pattern, which would have to be sewn together and seamed later, though. I'm not sure how standard patterns translate to a knitting wheel, but if it's do-able, there's a two-needle pattern here: http://www.lindascraftique.com/free/tnsocks.htm

Yes, it's quite possible, you form the heel by knitting short rows (zigzagging back & forth instead of going all the way round.) Here's a pattern for a couple different socks.
