2 x 2 Socks
If you have ever knit a single sock and found yourself never finishing the second of the pair, then you need to learn this technique for knitting a complete pair of socks at one time!
Using two circular needles and separate balls of yarn, this method will allow you to start at the toes, turn the heels, and zoom up the calves while being able to try the pair on at each step of the way. This means that when you are done with one sock, you are done with BOTH SOCKS!
You may never go back to single socks again!
