Quick Tips for Circular Knitting<br />
••<br />
The advantage to knitting sweaters in<br />
the round is that there are no seams<br />
to sew. However, side seams can help<br />
to stabilize a garment and encourage<br />
it to hang vertically without twisting<br />
or torquing to one side or the other. To<br />
ensure against this tendency, work the<br />
center underarm stitch in a different<br />
stitch pattern, such as garter stitch<br />
(alternate between knitting and purling<br />
these stitches every round), reverse<br />
stockinette stitch (purl these stitches<br />
every round), or slip stitch (slip these<br />
stitches every other round), to cause a<br />
break in the pattern and encourage the<br />
body to hang straight.<br />
••<br />
Sometimes a vertical line of loose<br />
stitches develops at the boundaries<br />
between double-pointed needles.<br />
