The sock bug has spread to my daughter. You know the one who likes to tell me that knitting is just not her thing.
Here she is knitting her first pair of socks using magic loop, and liking it no less!
Doesn't she look happy! She really is proud of the progress she's made ( she just started them on Saturday). She is a really great knitter a natural in fact which is why I was so bummed that she didn't take to knitting at first but she seems to really be enjoying it now. Ahhh the power of the sock!
Congrats! Magic Loop is the way to go, I never did learn to do the DP thing (did try a mini sock, but it looked very strange), it makes it easy and fun...tell her "welcome" to the club!

That is so great! She is doing an amazing job! I agree that the magic loop method is the way to go. Now she will be addicted!

A lovely young lady doing a lovely job. There is a lot right with that picture.
And I'm squarely in the Magic Loop fan club.

That's awesome! I was disappointed when my daughter didn't take to knitting the first time she tried too. I haven't given up yet though.

Hey, how exciting is that?
Pretty soon we'll have to let her come along on our Rhinebeck expeditions!

Congratulations to you both!
