[Nfb-krafters-korner] knitting in the round

[linda]

Lovette,

It is the same, whether you are working on straight needles or circular or
DPNs.  Presuming you are right handed, your left needle is loaded and your
right needle is empty.  You work the stitches from the left needle to the
right needle.

When working in the round, the points of the needle will be closest to your
body and the stockinette side will be on the outside of the fabric.  When I
first started working in the round, I had my fabric inside out and had my
working needles on the side of the circle farthest from my body!  It worked,
I just had to turn it when I finished.

Hope this helps!
Blessings, 
Ninn

Hi there. Can someone remind me of something?
When working in the round which way does the project go? I mean away 
from you or pointing down, or toward you and facing your chest 
depending on how you hold needles?
Thanks.
Lovette
