Does this loon cloth have to be done on a circular needle? It is beautiful as are all of your cloths. Hope you can reply soon. Thank You.

Hi Leona~No, you don't need to use circulars at all... I use the shortest circulars I can find as I like them so much better than straight needles... I knit straight with the circulars.. They are just a lot easier to handle than the big long needles.... You never lose the other needle as it always attached & they are more compact to pack in a knitting bag.... Marilyn
