I don't remember who suggested that to me--it makes the cast on a little bit looser. <br />Love the new socks too.

What cast on ...Teresa the red socks are gorgeous!!! What cast on did you use? A long tail cast on is a stretchier cast on in case you make another pair from the cuff down.<br /><br />What a lucky ducky you are! I use the plastic magic genie thingies and I like them. Never had any problems with my bobbin since I bought them a few years ago. I also have the Supreme Slider. At first I loved it. But because it self sticks and lint can get up under it, it can move when you don't know it while quilting. I found this out after I took my quilt off the machine bed and saw the slider moved and the needle punched into the place near the hole. You need to clean the back of the slider so it sticks in place, but you never know when it might shift. I don't use mine much anymore, but it is nice if it stays put like a good little slider, lol!

I'm with you on wishing that I had knit socks longer, it seems like I'm always wishing that to the point where sometimes I just redo the top until I'm happy. The Kroy yarn is so nice to knit with.
