I am still not sure how I feel about the two-socks-at-a-time-on-one-needle method, so I decided to try out the basic sock instructions for two socks on two circular needles from Knitting Circles Around Socks. I think I like this method better, although with worsted weight yarn it was a bit of a bulky project say to take on the bus. I do like having two socks finished though!
Yarn is called Moor Ragg (apparently no longer available, this was really old stash yarn) from Green Mountain Spinnery (in Putney, Vermont). (By the way, they have some really cool new sock yarn that I just noticed when finding the link.)

Interesting
I always make one at a time. Maybe I´ll try the two on two method and see how it goes.
I always make the second pair anyways, but you should try everything once, right? 🙂

I’m the old fasioned lady, I like knitting my sock on dpn’s, but I have been sneezing a bit on circular needles. Maybe later.
The socks looks fine, and I like the colour.
Happy beloved birthday, by the way.

I´ve never tried either to knit two at the time on circulars. I always knit socks on dpn´s too. Maybe I should try sometime to knit on circular then maybe both will be finished (I suffer hard from SSS 😉
Happy Birthday (a bit too late….)!
