Hi, I am just learning how to knit and I was wondering if I can knit mitts with two needles instead of four or five? - even though the pattern says to use four or five needles. I only have two normal and a circular needle at the moment.

I also would like to know HOW to go about knitting a pattern that says you need four or five needles, with just two needles (if possible).

And.. does it matter if you use regular, dpn, or circular needles to knit mittens/anything?

Thanks!

it would be better to use what it calls for so the pattern can come out right. like baking a cake. :) use all instructions to make the perfect mittens. if you find it hard ask an elderly person who has been doing this for a long time.
