In fact, I donated all my straight needles. A few years ago, I finally caved and bought a set of interchangeable needles. Before owning them, I thought they were silly. But flash forward a bit and I'm the proud owner of multiple sets of interechangeables and am ready to donate my old circulars. Having said that, I still prefer to knit socks and small tubes with dpns.Jeannie Gray Knitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06491806030465386877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6407290539855175918.post-13037086135764562982017-12-23T05:58:02.196-07:002017-12-23T05:58:02.196-07:00The hats are just adorable!

Sometimes I use circulars for the dishcloths.

We found a lady in a wool store who was so enthusiastic about circular needles and so that is that we bought and she is so happy with them.<br />Her first effort, a scarf, is coming on great.crazyquilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05254457962460331689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6407290539855175918.post-26983347999290234282017-12-22T18:30:12.165-07:002017-12-22T18:30:12.165-07:00When I first saw that photo, I thought you'd f...When I first saw that photo, I thought you'd figured out how to do all those hats on a long circular needle! I bet they will be appreciated.
