I love knitting socks. They are a project you can carry with you to the Doctor Office, Restaurant, and even knit while waiting for a red traffic light to turn green. They are wonderful to wear and there are so many choices of yarn to choose from.

When my LYS asked me to teach a sock class, I developed this pattern as a teaching tool for students to learn the basics of knitting socks using the MAGIC LOOP method.

There are three charts that give you information to knit with Sock Weight, DK Weight or Worsted Weight yarn in sizes from Baby through Adult Large.
