KNITTING SOCKS - WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW - PART 3

In my last two blog posts, I talked about the anatomy of a sock in Part 1 and the option of knitting socks using double pointed or a circular knitting needle in Part 2.  Once you decide what type of knitting needles to use for your socks, you need to select the material they are made from. In this blog post, I cover the most common materials knitting needles are made from.

What length of circular knitting needles should you use?

Are you confused about the length of your circular knitting needles and which one is better for which project?  Should you just buy the longest circular needle, and will it work for every knitting project?  And how do you measure a 16” fixed circular needle?  With the tips or without?      In this blog post I will try and answer these questions.
