[Nfb-krafters-korner] Finding Out If there IsInterestInKnittingClasses...

[Eileen Scrivani]

Hi Carol:

Not a problem.  A circular needle is two needle points that are connected in 
the middle by a flexible cord or cable.

They are similar to double pointed needles in that there is not a knob or 
stopper at one end.  You can slide and knit stitches off of each end or 
needle point using a circular needle just like you can with double pointed 
needles.  Sorry, I thought that you took the hat making class that Joyce did 
and I was under the impression that she had people using circular needles 
for the hat and then double pointed needles for the shaping.  I didn't take 
it so am not sure.

Let me know if you need more explanation.

Eileen
