How Many Knits On My Needles At Once?

by Hannah Gilly

January 17, 2023

Switching between multiple knitting projects at once is now normal

Decades ago I remember knitting one thing. Finishing it. Then starting the next one.

Now, along with most knitters I know, have multiple projects on the go at once.

I consider it like gardening - there might be three jobs that need doing, they'll take many hours each, but switching between them over a couple of weeks is a good thing for your back, your mind, and your garden.

When we're knitting three or five items at one time we can choose which one suits our mood, our energy levels or our fingers.

Today I’ll share the kind of knits I have on my needles at one time and how I manoeuvre through them to choose the next.
