This video tutorial and pattern walks you through knitting two socks at-a-time, from the toe up, using a long circular needle and the magic loop method of knitting. Here’s what you get:
– Pattern includes instructions for both worsted weight and sock weight (fingering) yarn
– Pattern includes sizes for children, women, and men
– Links to a seven-part video tutorial that walks you through the tricky parts
Why should I learn to knit socks this way? This method might be right for you, if
– if you have “second sock syndrome”
– if you like using up ALL of your yarn, with no yarn left over
– if you’d rather not count your rows as you go to make an identical second sock
Worsted Weight Socks
Sizes: Child (5-10 years old), Women, Men (any size, all average widths)
Needles: Size 5 US (3.75mm) circular needles with at least a 32” cord
Yarn: 1 skein or hank of worsted-weight yarn (about 100 grams/200 yards) in wool or wool blend. This much yarn will make crew socks in the men’s size, and longer socks in the smaller two sizes.
Additional Materials: Crochet hook in size G or H, scrap yarn, tapestry needle for weaving in ends
Gauge: 5.5 stitches per inch in stockinette
Sock (Fingering) Weight Socks
Sizes: Child (5-10 years old), Women, Men (any size, all average widths)
Needles: Size 1 US (2.5mm) circular needles, at least 32” in length (longer is better)
Yarn: at least 400 yards of sock-weight yarn, wound into two equally-sized balls (I used Knit Picks Stroll)
Additional Materials: Crochet hook in size G or H, scrap yarn, tapestry needle for weaving in ends
Gauge: 9 stitches per inch in stockinette, unstretched
