Knitting with arthritic hands

You can use circular needles for small projects too. They aren’t just for tubular knitting or large blankets, and they balance the weight better than straight needles. You just use them in the same way as straights, turning the work at the end of a row.

I completely agree, I use circular needles for everything I knit, not only socks but jumpers , blankets etc.

Me too, but it’s surprising how many people don’t understand that they can be used for flat knitting (ie not in the round) and that you can use them to make baby clothes and not just large items such as blankets.
