[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Interchangeable needles

[Ericka]

Thanks Tracy!

I am trying to get used to knitting in the round so to speak. I drop fewer stitches with my circular needles. It’s harder to cast on but that will come in time. Just like learning how to not increase by accident and the real meaning of gauge by just playing around with different yarn.

Again thank you

Ericka Nelson
