NEEDLE STYLE: Artsiga Crafts circular come in lengths of 16 inch (40cm), 24 inch (60cm), 32 inch (80cm) and 47 inch(120cm) and are most commonly used for larger projects such as seamless sweaters, large blankets or scarves that are knitted horizontally because the cord offers more space for the stitches; circular knitting needles distributes the weight of the project across the cord resting on your lap while you knit, making the knitting lighter on your wrists. NEEDLE SIZING: While most projects and yarns will list a needle size, this is merely a suggestion as everyone knits differently and the tightness of your knitting has to be taken into account when choosing your needles; Most patterns list a gauge for the project and this is more important than the listed needle size; In order to find your gauge, knit a test swatch and measure how many stitches per inch you knit, then adjust up or down a needle size until your gauge matches the pattern.
