MAGIC LOOP: TOE UP OR TOP DOWN
I want to start two socks at the same time using the magic loop method. I have been researching this method and what i have found is toe up way to do the socks. Is there a way to do the leg first using magic loop or just the toe up way? Or am i really slow? I am not good at dpn's at all. Just need to start some Christmas gifts. thanks

yes! in fact there is a new book by Melissa Morgan-Oakes--2 at a time Socks..(story publishing) that has very detail directions on how to work socks 2 at time magic loop method (cuff down)

there are other ways to do this-(i basically did the same thing, only i end up with 2 on 2 circ's...)

as with all 2 sock at time methods--the first round is the hardest.. after that.. its quite easy.
