Another Friday...

And another finished project! After I-don't-know-how-many months, I have finished my first pair of magic loop socks.



I am turning into a Finishing Machine these days. I must keep it up. Next I think I'll get back to the Newfoundland Mitts for Number One Daughter alternating with a charity baby blanket. Yes, two projects at once is a risky proposition given the mess I've gotten myself into, but I'll want something simple and easy on the hands when I need a break from the tight gauge of the mitts.

And my verdict on the magic loop: it's okay. I don't love it, I don't hate it. It isn't difficult, but it isn't any easier than DPNs either. My fingers didn't itch to pick up the circ the way they do my DPNs. I will probably stick to the DPNs from now on, though I might try doing two socks on one circ some day.
