I want to knit a pair of longies for my DS and bought some circular kneedles for the task. I thought I would have a practice of knitting in the round (only done it once before aeons ago) on some mittens for him. All well and good and understand the concept yadayada, but I only have 40 stitches and cannot for the life of me get the other end of the pin round to get the thing tight together and it would appear that I need a circular pin where the solid bits are an inch long max in order to knit these teeny tiny mittens.
Am I missing something? Have looked on youtube and all the turorials involve lengthy adult sized knitting....but I assume that these needles are a standard lenght and that folks knit socks etc for kiddies so it SHOULD be possible....
Any advice greatfully received.
TIA
