Millie - do you mean, how do you fit them on a needle? I would use a
60" circular. I have a 60" cable for my Denise interchangeables. I'm
assuming it has to be knit in one piece.

I did not know there were 60 inch circular needles. ... Is cable needles
the same as circular needles? Also, I don't know what interchangeables
are. Maybe I got to take another peek at knitting gadgets and such!
Thank you for your input.


Cable needles are short ones with a `kink' in the middle for putting a
few stitches on when making cables. Circulars are a single needle with
two ends and flexible line (called a cable) in the middle. They come in
various lengths from 12 to 60 inches.
