I was getting frustrated at working two socks at a time…it just seemed to be moving soooo sloooowly. So I decided to move one sock to DPNs and now I feel like I’m getting somewhere. Once I finish this one I’ll knit up the mate and then move back to the pink ones.

That looks great – I haven’t braved sock knitting yet… is there a good beginner pattern you would recommend?

This is my first pair of socks and I found this really cool tutorial on YouTube that is pretty easy. She’s doing two at a time which was very easy to start but it just wasn’t knitting up fast enough for me so I moved one sock off to DPNs…good luck!

I prefer DPNs, but so many people like the two at a time, who am I to judge. It’s all very individual. Glad to hear that you are feeling accomplished though, it is a good feeling.

I like circular needles for bigger projects but I find that I waste too much time moving the yarn up on to the needles with these socks, so for now DPNs are my choice too.
