CONTINENTAL TECHNIQUES Lesson 7
Working in rounds
We knit in circles or rounds to make seamless garments (also known as tube knitting).
There are two common ways:
using four, five or more double-pointed needles and using
circular needles
Using double-pointed needles: You can use as many double-pointed
needles as needed to rezemble a circle.
Using circular needles
Keep in mind that length of the needle determines what technique to use.
For example, you can use Magic Loop with needle 150cm/59in long to make a tube 50cm.20in
or you can use needle 60cm/23in long using full circle to make the same tube.
