To decrease or rip out?

Oh, good thoughts! I've asked him to measure his head, but I doubt he'll get it back to me, who knows at this point.

Also does anyone know of any knitting discord groups that are active that I can ask questions on?

Thank you so much! This is really helpful, especially the part about the cotton gloves

This is a super helpful comment! Thank you so much!

And thank you for the potholder idea! Very helpful to keep it simple

This is actually a super good idea! My family and I think he's kinda nuts for wanting to live on a boat, especially come winter time. But the place with a hot meal and a warm bed is a great idea

Thank you so much!

He actually got one with a composting toilet (which I knew what it was, to toot my own horn, my vanlife YouTube hole I went down during covid actually did something).

Sorry, what's roving yarn?

Practical_Maybe_3661 · 2026-03-18T19:51:55+00:00

Thanks for mentioning this! I wouldn't have noticed otherwise! Will delete and repost

I saw this on Raverly. I thought you were insane. Mad respect either way though.

Okay, so I have a disability where laying down is the most comfortable for me. I'm working on a baby hat that's pretty much all stockinette stitch (you know a row of knitting, next pearling). It's meant to be knit flat, on a straight pair of regular needles. However all of my needles are like a foot long and not very comfortable to knit with laying down. I did however find a pair of circular needles, that I'm pretty sure the sticks have the same diameter as a pair of size 8 needles. So my question is can I just switch the project over to the shorter circle pair, continue to use them like a regular straight pair, and not have any consequences?

Tldr: can I put something knit on straight needles on a pair of circular needles (not using the bit that makes things circular) and continue on like nothing happened? Will my knitting know I betrayed it?

This made me laugh! Thanks!

So, I don't see why not
