Purling is so easy once you learn you will say that's all there is too it.. Also to avoid chaos when knitting two at a time, use two balls of yarn and put them in there own project or ziploc bags that way they won't get twisted. My lys taught me that when I did my two at a time socks. So now you must go for it and try those first pair of sock you will soon be addicted. I know have enough pairs for every day of the week and am still wanting more. My kids keep asking for some so I guess I need to spread the sock goodness. .-= See Janey's latest blog post: <a href="http://sewstylish.wordpress.com/2009/10/30/another-year/" rel="nofollow">Another Year</a> =-. love the mitts.

But if you do want to learn, check out some of the videos at http://www.knittinghelp.com/ I've found that actually seeing the stitches in action, and how they're formed, does help.
