Permalink Reply by Michelle on May 29, 2009 at 1:16pm: I am still being really dumb about casting on for the tooth fairy pillow. I get the magic loop method but when I'm casting on the first 6 w/ ball A do I cast on the next 12 from ball B on the same needle or on the other needle. I did it both ways and neither look right. I think if I could figure out what ball B was for it would help. The pattern doesn't mention ball B after the first sentence. I feel so dumb!! help; ▶ Reply to This

I'm left handed and thought maybe I've got it backwards, but after 3 hours and 60 tries, can't seem to figure it out. Please help, the magic loop tutorial is not helpful in this situation.; ▶ Reply to This

It calls for a Knot Pattern stitch and I don't have an idea how to follow the instructions. I would love a tutorial for this stitch through KnitPicks or advise where I may find it elsewhere. Thank you, Diane Schafer; ▶ Reply to This

I'm the first time (yet ambitious) sock knitter. I'm knitting 2 at the time on 1 circular. (Reading your post I'm thinking I should have done it with DPNs) I'm done with the first part, the cuff. Anyway, I'm here b/c I have a question but don't know where to post. How do you reinforce the heels and toes (yes, I want my socks to last forever)? I thought of using double thread ONLY at the heels and the toes but don't know how to do it in rounds. Would you help? Thank you so much.
