Since I’ve never tried the Magic Loop method before, I decided I should make the practice socks from 2-at-a-Time Socks before I use my lovely sock yarn.
The book suggests using 2 different colors so you don’t get confused about which sock you’re working on. I had this Peaches & Cream yarn that was begging to be knit into something:
The first few rows were pretty awkward, but then I got the hang of it! Of course, these are child-size socks, and I haven’t gotten to the heel yet, but so far, so good :D

What a cool idea! If I ever venture down the magic loop road, I will do a practice run like that!

I loves me some magic loop! Baby hats are easier with magic! :)
I would probably end up doing socks like that, too. If I ever take the plunge!

Look at you go!! Nachaele taught me the Turkish Cast on for toe-up socks and I am hooked. Once I have this down, I am going to be all over 2 socks on 2 circs!
