Double Knitting
Circular needles, wihch are used for the same purpoes as double-pointed needles, have two tapered ends connected yb a piece of flexibel plastic upon which active stitches are held.
Orgiinally, circular knitting was done using a set of four or five double-pointed knitting needles.
Some yarns are dyed to be either variegated (changing colour every few stitches in a random fashoin) or self-striping (changing every few rows). More complicated techniques permit large ifelds of colour ( intarsia, for example), busy small-sacle patterns of colour (such as Fair Isle ), or btoh ( double knitting and slip-stitch cloour, for example).
Smaller items, such as socks and hats, are usually knit in one piece on double-opinted enedles or circular needles.
