I have put out a series of Youtube videos on how to knit toe-up custom socks with any yarn you have. There are demonstrations of how to knit using one long circular needle (magic loop) and then other set of demos using DPNs.
The demonstrations are in Worsted weight yarn but can easily be used with any yarn weight you prefer.
You can find these videos on my youtube channel
