For very small diameter circular knitting, you wouldn't be able to use a 12" circular needle because your tube of knitting would end up too large. But you also don't have to use double pointed needles! You can use the magic loop method with a longer circular needle cord or you can use the two circular needles method. I think both are demonstrated in videos on this site under Advanced Techniques.

she's right, and magic loop is easy, too! i think you said you have the Denise interchangeable set. If you do, just extend the cables so the are about 32" or longer (depending on your project).
