2 needle socks or circular

[hay yall 001]

I am looking for a pattern for socks that you only have to use 2 needles or a circular needle and then sew it. I have tried to knit with pointed needles and just am not good with them. They can be for ladies or mens but are for myself and I am always cold. Thanks for any help.

was searching through a bunch of site address's and found this. I remembered your request. I don't know if this is what you want but there are a couple others.

This sock pattern keeps me sane, since it is simple enough to knit and read
rather heavy going stuff. We call these the "Seabury Socks" - since I
designed them to be worn with birkenstock type sandles or clogs (which is
preferred footwear here at school) - and if I were selling them I'd have
backorders like crazy. Hope you all enjoy them!

Seabury Socks

About 4 oz worsted weight yarn (I prefer Brown Sheep because the colors are
wonderful)

Size 5 or 6 needles (I like to use DPN's with little stoppers for very
short straight needles.

Cast on 48 stitches and rib (1X1) for 7-8 inches

Bind off 12 stitches, knit 24 stitches, bind off remaining 12 stitches and
cut yarn.

Top of foot: Attach yarn and work on the remaining 24 stitches until this
section measures 6-7 inches in length (depending on foot length).

Shape toe: Decrease by knitting two stitches together at the beginning and
end of each row until 12 stitches remain. Immediately begin increasing one
stitch at the beginning and end of each row until the stitch count is back
to 24.

Bottom of foot: continue working on the 24 stitches until this section is
the same length as the top of the foot.

Shape Heel: Decrease by knitting two stitches together at the beginning
and end of each row until 12 stitches remain. Immediately begin increasing
one stitch at the beginning and end of each row until the stitch count is
back to 24.

Bind off.

This odd looking piece is a sock - seam the back center of the ribbing.
Sew up the "angles" on both heel and toe. Sew the heel to the bottom of
the ribbing; seam both sides of the foot.

Wasn't it fun? Now make another one to match.

This is a basic rendition of what can be a great way to use odds and ends.
Heels and toes can be wild in a neutral sock; cables are fun down the
center of the entire sock if you opt to rib for about 1-2 inches and change
to plain knitting.

BTW - for the person who asked, and whose note I accidentally zapped - it
is true: I am in an Episcopal seminary studying for the priesthood.

Hope everybody who has a good time with my pattern!

if you wish the others pm me and I can give you the site or print the pattern. none of them have pictures of finished product.

The circular needles are the same as using 4 pointed needles, just put a marker on your needle so you know where the start is. You should be able to knit any socks that call for pointed needles on circular ones.
