Would be great if someone could add a description of knitting with two circulars and "Magic Loop" knitting with one long circular for socks and the like. Knerq 19:50, 7 September 2005 (UTC)

I've just discovered this Wiki today and I added some info on Magic Loop. I hope our visitors find it useful.Wheeltrish 13:30, 18 March 2006

There's been a new picture of double points uploaded recently- Image:Knitting needles double pointed.png Any thoughts about which one we want to use in this article? The main difference I see is that the new one has a ruler, and that the original has a white(ish) background, both things I like. Loggie (talk) 20:06, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Steeking and knitting sweaters

I wonder how traditional steeking (cutting into knitted fabric) is. It certainly is not the most common manner of making sweaters in modern times, and as far as I can tell it is mostly used for converting pullovers into cardigans rather than placing armholes. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.207.102.249 (talk) 00:44, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
