I only have the $ for two sizes and I want to maximize my use out of them. What 2 sizes would you get if you were me? I'm using them to make legs on longies and such.

well what are you usual sizes you use?
or what kind of yarn do you prefer?

Im going to order also and am getting size 7 12" and 16" because 7 is my favorite to work on.

I usually work with worsted weight yarn. Right now I'm using a size 9 for a pair of soakers with Patons Classic, but that seems really high to me, even though I got gauge with the 9s. I'm thinking of ordering 8's and something else, but I'm not sure if I should do a 6 or 7, or something even smaller. I wish they weren't so expensive or someone else made them!

Pesonally, I would get either 6 and 7 or 7 and 8. I have 7 and 8 in 12".

I have all the sizes now, but at first I could get away with almost everything with size 8's in both the 12" and 16" lengths. 8 is a good middleground size that should get you close on most worsted weight stuff.
