I knit these socks with 4 DPNs (5 DPNs when I got to the toe), but you can easily convert the pattern to magic loop, or 2 circulars, or 5 DPNs, or two at a time, or whatever other sock-knitting technique you prefer. Measurements and yardage are given for ladies size 10-11 medium-width ankle socks, but you can adjust the size to fit any foot by casting on more or fewer stitches and knitting the foot and leg longer or shorter. Remember that if you knit your socks larger or longer, you’ll use more yarn!
