I have never knitted in the round before. The thought scares me, especially not helped by seeing someone I know try and knit a hat in the round once. I was scarred. However this week I was making some more baby legs so I thought I would give it a go, nothing could be simpler then leg warmers!
One day I may even brave socks. But not today.

It's funny how people have different fears with knitting. I was (still am to be honest!) terrified of lace even though I know logically I can do all the stitches without a problem.
Your knitting looks good :-) I love my circular needles, they are much easier for me to use than DPN's. When I made socks I used two circular needles in a similar way to how you are using the DPN's at the moment. I've tried doing magic loop too which is with just one large circular needle but it doesn't make sense to my brain yet lol
I am part way through my first big lace piece and it is honestly not as scary as it looks. The shaping can be a bit fiddly but that is all.
Impressive. I've knit using those needles with a loop in between and still managed to drop stitches! Def need to post a picture when you're done!
Careful, socks are addictive. I also started with dpns, and then slowly evolved towards knitting two socks at the same time with two circular needles. I've never looked back!
