I CAN DO IT; Circular Knitting with double pointed needles

I have always struggled with the idea of knitting with double pointed needles. I mean, isn't it awkward to knit with 4 needles, wouldn't they just all get in the way?

Well, yesterday, I discovered the knitting help website. They have videos of knitting techniques, and since I learn visually it suited me perfectly. I watched the video once and later that day (or should we say night) I began...

And guess what... I CAN do it!!! This is something I've avoided for years, and I managed to pick it up straight away. I am thinking, now, of all the cool hats I can make! And I no longer HAVE to sew up all those horrible seams!!!

If you're another person who has avoided knitting of any kind, I highly suggest a visit to Knitting Help! No, they didn't pay me to say that!!
