Is there a way to knit soxs with two needles vs. using several dp needles?
I would appreciate an input.
I call my self a begginer/advance knitter, however, when in comes to use more than two needles, I am totally lost.

Thank you for you help.

Happy New Year to all craft enthusiasts!

yes, go to youtube and search for 'knitting on two circular needles'

it is an easy way to use 2 needles and still make an unseamed tube.

I just watched that, looks a lot easier than dpns.

i know lots of people who love this technique...i'm a dyed-in-the-wool dpn user, but we have lots of choices...we should just try and see if they work for us.... have fun....

Hi Crissy:

Thank you so much for your input. I will let you know how it works out.

I am very excited about this way to comunicate with others and exchange ideas.

Happy New Year to you and your family.

DMR, check out the magic loop method. I am trying two at a time socks now using this method. Youtube has some very good videos. I have used multiple needles before, but kept loosing stitches, and found this method. It is very easy.

remember, the two regular needles will produce a sock with a seam...that's why we were sending you to the two circs...their sock is still knit in the round, but on 2 circs...
