Also try googling magic loop socks. You should come up with more ideas and pictures of what this will look like.

You know I started using the 2 circs a year ago.. I decided to tackled 2 socks at the same time.. It got tiring so I took one sock off and put on dpn's.. I couldn't handle the dpns.. It was awkward and really didn't go as fast.. So I am back to 2 circs and I am finishing up my first pair of 2 socks done at the same time on 2 circs

Blessings, Debra

Cat Bordhi was the one who wrote the book "Socks soar on circular needles".

She is on youtube knitting...

Also her website has a couple free patterns for socks...

For me the circs seem to go faster, but the WOW factor of the dpns is really cool too..... :-)

Lana - thanks for posting that! I am just lost when I have to follow directions from a pattern. It is so much easier for me when I can see someone do it or have them show me how. I looked at some instructions on the internet and was totally confused!
