very cute! I like doing baby sox, but I am glad not to be doing them for myself anymore, lol!

See, I don't like doing baby socks. Too little yarn on too many needles. The socks I'm working on for dh fit much better in my hands. Plus, I'm able to do them on Magic loop. I think if I had the right size circulars for the baby socks, it wouldn't be so tedious for me.

I heart Magic Loop

theyre some cute. I love the color variation and i bet theyre super soft too.
I wouldnt have the patience to take the time to make them. Because theyre so small.

cute socks!
i don't think i'd like knitting little socks either. they are bad enough to crochet them where you just have one hook to deal with.

Those are SOOOO cute!

Just a question, what is a Magic Loop? It it an easier way to knit socks? I am a beginning knitter and making socks seems so complicated when I read the patterns.

Magic loop is knitting in a circle with one long circular needle rather than 4-5 double pointed needles. You loop the circular so that the cable crosses, making a circle. You can do one sock at a time or both socks at once. I prefer one at a time but I can definitely see the benefits of two at a time.
