Hose knitting question

[string]

What is your favorite size needles? my favorite needles in general are some old blue plastic size 3 DPNs, extra long and nice and bendy, I also love the Knitpicks needles, all of them both the wood and the metal. for regular socks I use size 0 or 00. I am a freakishly loose knitter.

What is your favorite size yarn? for kilt hose, DK, otherwise I like fingering and lace weight.

What is your favorite type of yarn? wool, superwash merino

Do you prefer circular or double pointed? I am using 2 circs at the moment, but I love me some DPNs

What is the make of your favorite needle? Knitpicks

Where do you get your yarn? I get yarn from several places, but knitpicks.com is where I get most basic yarns.
How long have your been knitting? I've been knitting for... 4 years? I'm not really sure, but 4 seems right. I learned in January, but I don't know which January.

Do you use the English or Continental Style of knitting? I knit continental, but i can knit with the yarn in my right hand too, for two color work, which I am just now learning.

Do you would you knit hose for others (X-Markers)? am currently. will again certainly, I am a poor starving unemployed college student with a yarn habit to feed.

I will add my own question... Toe up or Top down? I like both for different reasons and like to switch it up to avoid boredom
