#magicloop — Public Fediverse posts

Knitting socks two at a time with magic loop might be easier if I had a longer cable, so far it works but as I increase for gusset it may become harder.

For one sock, the 80 cm cable was no issue though.

If it proves too hard, I guess I'll have to look into switching cables mid project. At least I do have a longer cable at hand.

Next up in my #knitting journey:

Attempting toe up socks. I have never knitted socks prior, don't know if that is an advantage or not.

Yarn is acrylic and basically just for testing out the concept.

I have started and restarted the toebox a few times before getting a version where my tension is ok and it looks rather good at the edge.

Doing it using the magic loop on circular knitting needles

The logical step when re-learning is of course to make it complicated.
After getting my new knitting needles (interchangeable circulars) I did some testing and to give me a bit of a challenge I did after a bit join the piece to work in the round using magic loop.
A bit tricky to get the tension right in the first couple rows, but other than that not to hard to do once you figure out how to manage needles and cable.

Gerade angefangen: #Regenbogen Socken für den lieben @schenklklopfer

Wolle ist die Regia Pairfect 4-Fach und das Muster… bin ich mir noch nicht so ganz sicher was es denn werden soll.
