However, I should also point out that the only parts of circular knitting that could possibly be considered tricky are the initial join and the bind-off; otherwise, it's actually easier than back-and-forth because you don't have any wrong-side rows to deal with. I highly encourage you to try. <br /><br />Here's some info about the join: http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/avoid-a-gap-at-the-join-in-circular-knitting.html<br /><br />And here's some info about binding off: http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/how-to-bind-off-in-the-round.html<br /><br />Anyway, if you really want this pattern converted, let me know, and I'll help you. Again, though, I think you'll find circular knitting to be super easy, and very gratifying (since it will open up a whole new world of patterns!). :)Gretchen Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13720728303685051589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6683194221069775925.post-75001552832094766602015-04-30T02:10:32.221-07:002015-04-30T02:10:32.221-07:00This is an awesome pattern.

If you look at the bottom of the post (but above the comments), you'll see the word "labels". I include yarn weight as a label for each post, and you can find it there :)Gretchen Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13720728303685051589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6683194221069775925.post-75115109693718368422014-11-19T04:57:41.230-08:002014-11-19T04:57:41.230-08:00I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your patterns!

I think this one turned out really nicely - it keeps its shape well (so it doesn't really show off a wrong side), and it's an easy way to make a two-color pattern that has a little bit more interest than stripes, but isn't much harder to knit. And it goes fast!!!Gretchen Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13720728303685051589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6683194221069775925.post-60367763785990179522014-02-06T08:06:22.693-08:002014-02-06T08:06:22.693-08:00THIS ROCKS!
