Knitting Daily TV, Episode 510 - Circle Around (Download)

Circular needles aren't just for knitting in the round! Anything that can be knitted on two straight needles can be knitted back and forth on circulars. On this episode of Knitting Daily TV we take a look at all things circular--from sock knitting, to circular motifs, to shaping the neck on a garment.

Getting Started

Eunny gives an in-depth tutorial on circular sock knitting, focusing on the step-by-step process for turning around a standard short-row heel.

Designer Spotlight
 
Meet Cat Bordhi, known throughout the knitting world for her method of teaching knitting in the round on two circular needles. We caught up with Cat on location for a demonstration on using her method not just for socks but for other projects like mittens and gauntlets. You could even make fun legwarmers!

Crochet Corner
 
Join Kristin for a lesson in crochet motifs and the Multi Motif Scaf, a fun and colorful pattern for all skill levels.

Knit-Along
 
Knitter Zontee Hou is back with Eunny for the next installment of the Tabard Vest knit-along. She shows how to shape the neck area of the vest by working two sides of the neck with two seperate balls of yarn.
