Single Loop Knitting in the Round

I just found this tutorial today, and it is changing the way I think about small diameter knitting. I totally hate the magic loop method because I hate managing both the loops of cable. This is a way to use a shorter length needle, yet still get the same effect. Go check it out!

Shifting Stitches: Tutorial: Single Loop instead of Magic Loop - for Knitting in the Round

One of the reasons I dislike magic loop is that it tends to kink my cables on my addis and I don't like the feel of it when I'm going back to work something larger.
