DPNs.u00a0 Never been tempted by the other stuff ~ just like I’m “still” an English knitter!

I really like to use dpn’s and I am quite comfortable with them, I would like to start using circulars.

I enjoy dpn’s and am quite comfortable with them, now i would like to try circulars for socks and I really like the Dyak Craft dpn’s.

I own both of Melissa’s two at a time sock books and have learned a great deal from them.

I love knitting socks on two circular needlesu2014it’s the way I learned to knit socks, and while I’ve also tried dpns and Magic Loop, I always come back to two circulars.u00a0

I have used circular needles, but I always feel clumsy using dpn’s.u00a0 I’d love a copy of Melissa’s new book.

My first knitting experience was three years ago in Coleville, WA where I took a lesson so I could make felted hats.u00a0 I learned to knit in the round first. u00a0 After that, someone mentioned socks to me…I was afraid. Heel turns, heel flaps, gussets, what the heck? u00a0 I knit a couple of pairs on DPNs, but was not impressed.u00a0 Then I saw Melissa’s first book and bought a copy.u00a0 I loved it from the first (errata and all).u00a0 Using that book (and some common sense) I figured out how to knit TAAT socks…I prefer a 40″ circular needle and Two-At-A-Time Socks because when I finish a project – I have finished a project (not just half – one sock – of a project).u00a0 I still refer to 2-At-A-Time Socks for all of my Kitchener stitch needs – I believe it provides the best written directions for this technique.
