Addi Circular Needles

[mommyto2presidents]

Hi. Can you knit socks on a circular needle? I'm not so great with the DPNs. If so, what size/length would I need.

Also, what are longer lengths use for (like 48" and beyond).

Can anyone shed some light??

Thanks!

Longer lengths more than 40" are used to knit 2 socks at a time. They say you need at least 40" for magic loop and one sock, but I think you could do it easily with a 29-36" length.
