Circulars. I use magic loop and really its magic!

I havent learned or used magic loop.  In fact, a long time ago, I bought a US 1 40" (I believe) for socks.  I never used it, so I ended up giving it to a friend that wanted to learn magic loop for socks.  Now, 4.5 years later, I want to sit down and learn magic loop and try to knit some socks.  Go figure!

Only circulars ~ I keep a set of the longest ones I can find and use them for everything ❤

I like that idea!  I probably need to get some longer cords because Ive decided to learn magic loop this year.
