I taught myself to knit about 4 1/2 yrs ago and haven't stopped since. I have knit everything from socks to sweaters to a king sized bedspread(that took over a year) I am currently addicted to knitting socks! I love to make two at a time on one circ needle!
You've got me convinced to try the Magic Loop method. Did you start with a book? I saw instructions on the internet somewhere but that means knitting in front of my laptop which doesn't sound as comfy as knitting on my sofa. I'll probably buy a book so if you have one you like, let me know. Thanks!
Hi Jenknits...I thought I'd visit your page since we chatted on the Knitted Socks Knitalong board. I saw that you knit your socks 2 at a time on 1 circ. I haven't tried that although I currently knit one sock on 2 circs. My biggest fear with trying 2 socks at a time is that if I have to rip it out, I'd have to rip out 2 socks instead of just one to fix a mixtake. It seems that I rip out a lot of socks and I don't usually mind since it is less painful than ripping out a sweater!
Maybe I should just be brave and give it a shot anyway. :-)
