[Nfb-krafters-korner] Circular Needles

[Blindhands at aol.com]

Let me comment on this for you.  A size 16 inche circular needle is  
perfect to make a knitted hat on.  So look for the 16 inch circular needle  to go 
with the one you have.  The 24 inch maybe a bit awkward when doing  the 
thumb but you try it and let us all know.
 
Don't get needles that are too long as I said I use 2 - 16" needles size 8

hmm, I  think that Terry was referring to the length of the needles when 
she said 29.  that is a fairly common length from what I have discovered  
during my  initial research of knitting needles. a length of 16 is not as 
common. what I  happen to have now is a 24 length in my size 8 needles. I have not 
yet decided  whether to get a 16 this time or another 24 to match. I do 
believe I will try  a different texture  just to see if I like it better. I 
have bamboo  needles which I do like.
I'm thinking of trying  acrylic.
