I have a hat pattern knitted on 10mm circular needles. When I knit my tension square, I come up 1 stitch too many. I generally need a half size larger than the one stated on the pattern for most things but I can't find an 11mm circular needle.
Should I knit a size smaller, with the thinking that if I'm gaining 1 stitch per 10cms over 50+ cms, it will come out the size want?
