Transitioning from Circulars to DPNs

[cgd]

When you get to the point where you want to decrease a cap and will need the DPNs, do you just slip the stitches onto the DPNs or just knit them onto the DPNs as you go? Thanks.

you could probably knit them on but i always slip them on to dpns for some reason.

if i was changing needles for just about anything else though i would knit them on to the new needles.

don't ask me what the difference is...lol
