      There's something very satisfying about a sock whre the heel doesn't ride up your ankle becasue it fits perfectly! My mum made socks but mine were never as tidy as hers on 4 pins. I use the one, short, circular needle. A brilliant invention!

        Definitely give it a go! Just don't tumble dry the finished article, it never ends well ???? I also find very pink knits on YouTube is a great help for magic loop, turning heels and toe up socks!

      I am green with envy. Despite being a knitter for 50 years I cannot master the 4 needles! Looks great and fab colours.
