DIY sokken breien deel 1. "de teen"

Want to learn how to knit socks? And two at a time, from the toe up, on a magic loop, and with an afterthought heel? Then this series might be for you. My IGTV videos (10 minutes each) inspired me to record a longer series explaining this very calmly and step-by-step, in a podcast format (a la "Het Ruijge Huis"). In this first part, "The Toe." How to cast on stitches for two at a time, how to knit rows and turn needles, how to increase, and how to adjust when there are enough stitches for your foot.
