Circular needles are great when knitting larger flat pieces, here we show you how to
Circular knitting needles are great for more than just knitting in the round, they can also easily be used to knit flat as well. The long cable is well suited to having a large number of stitches on the needle as they can move freely along the cable. This means that it works well for projects such as blankets, sweaters, button bands and scarves. So next time you're working on a larger piece, such as a sweater, why not try knitting with cirulcar needles?
Circular needles aren't just for knitting in the round - they are also great for knitting flat pieces.
Cast on your stitches. Let the stitches slide onto the cable.
Hold the needle end with the stitches in your left hand and the empty end in your right.
Work across all your stitches.
To work the next row, swap the needle ends around so the working yarn is attached to the needle in your left hand.
Continue as pattern requires.
