A FO For 2009



Well--here is my first finished object for 2009. A pair of 56 stitch 56 row socks from Chicknits. They are done in Dream In Color Smooshy--color--Go Go Grassy. Done on size #1 needles the magic loop way. My very first pair of socks done using the magic loop method. I cannot believe I have been using dpn needles for over 2 years now. I will not go back to dpn needles. The magic loop method is so much faster and so very easy and simple. Happy Knitting.

Look At Me!



Thanks to Shelly at KotS and a little tutorial on youtube I am actually magic loop knitting socks. I have been knitting socks for a little over 2 years and cannot believe I have not tried this before--I thought it would be too hard. It is so easy and so much faster. If you haven't tried it you really ought to. It is great!! The sock is made with Dream in Color Smooshy--can't remember color at the moment and too busy to look. Will give the details on the sock when the pair is finished--probably sometime after Christmas.
