Knitting Small Aperatures?
What type of needles can knit small aperatures like the top of a hat, or a sock Cuff. I tried circular needles but the tube is too long for a cast on of 40 stitches. I tried 4 double pointed needles, but that got all tangled up when I divded the stitches. Please help if you know how to knit small circled areas.. Thanks!
If you don’t like using double pointed needles for knitting small circumferences, you can use 2 circular needles or just one long circular needle with a very flexible cable. The method using one circular needle is often referred to as Magic Loop.
