Learn the tricks of casting on to 2 circular needles, joining, and knitting around. You'll learn about the "udder needle," napping and resting, that it doesn't matter whether the inside or outside of the knitting shows, how to find your way if you put your knitting down, and more. Cat is the author of two sock books: NEW PATHWAYS FOR SOCK KNITTERS, and her original book which started the entire 2-circular needle knitting craze, SOCKS SOAR ON TWO CIRCULAR NEEDLES.

hi- last year I gave up dpns on a snowman family trio and a hat.. this year I HOPE to knit 2 stocking caps (r+w striped) by Dec 1. wear and enjoy thru the month of Dec. Let me know if I "got it" the concept. The longer cir - the outside..is to stay and will be the final place for the stitches of the brim of the cap. The inner cir, shorter will be the ones to knit and move out the upper tippy point of the cap. Am I right? I hope to win .. the yarn is sitting there since last year ! Thanks
Cat, you saved my life! I hate knitting with 4 needle because I'm not good at it. Next time I knit socks I try circular needles! Absolutely. I have only three socks in my whole life. Your tips are supergood! Thanks so much..
Thanks! What a great, and well-explained video! This method is especially useful if you're knitting in a crazy pattern; you can get into more of a 'groove', because you have to switch needles half as often. You rock Cat!
Thank you so much for doing this fantastic demo. I have heard of knitting on two circular needles but after looking at written instructions was none the wiser. This looks so easy and much less trouble than DPNs which I have used to knit gloves before. I am about to try my first pair of socks and after watching this I can't wait to get started :-)
I have to try this. I want to make socks with size 3 or smaller needles. I find it hard to get the DPN's doing. Is there a tutorial for the whole sock pattern?
this is fantastic. i taught myself to knit at ten and always hated dpns...though i can use then well. this make soooo much more sense to me...i'm off to the store, yippee!..and yes i'm in australia and have milked a cow...;) and, oddly, a rabbit....
