How to Soften Circular Knitting Needles
We've all experienced that feeling of opening a new set of circular knitting needles and the excitement that comes with the possibility of casting on your first project with them. But then you start casting on and find that the cord still hasn't quite let go of the curls that it had in the packaging. If you've had circulars for a while, you know that these straighten out over time, but waiting for that can be hard for impatient knitters! Luckily, there are a few tricks you can try to get them to straighten out a little faster and make knitting in the round a breeze. There are basically three different approaches you can take to doing this: Option 1: Break them in with a swatch Option 2: Soften them with hot water Option 3: Soften them with steam
