And the reason for the bigger needle is if you're using knitting needles to cast on and you're pulling your yarn tight around your scrap yarn; then your stitches could get too small of you don't cast on with a bigger needle. :)Gretchen Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13720728303685051589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6683194221069775925.post-81306907854751375692017-05-09T13:21:04.762-07:002017-05-09T13:21:04.762-07:00Why do you use a size 10 or 10.5 needle to do prov...Why do you use a size 10 or 10.5 needle to do provisional cast on?
