I wanted to make some socks for myself too and wanted to use magic loop as dont have DPNs and dont really fancy buying any. I was trying to work out the other day how to do a pattern in magic loop that is explained on DPNs and how you divide the stitches etc, so would I just put markers in between the stitches and count each section as if it was on a seperate DPN @babyroo ??



Good question :giggle: I will have a go when I have finished on of the 3 things I have on the go at the moment :widesmile:


Me too :giggle: have another 3 xmas presents to knit, then a cardigan and a jumper for Darcy then I will have a go...if nothing else more exciting comes up in my to do list, I never get round to knitting anything for myself!!

Yes put a marker after how ever many stitches would be on each needle.

I used an infant sock pattern on Rav that was using circs. I did another pattern too but @tracedw converted the pattern for me so that I could magic loop :thumbsup:
