I like knitting scarves to sell. I have some patterns calling for a size 50 knitting needles. All I have been able to find in the stores are Lion Brand and Susan Bates 14 inch plastic. For knitting scarves I prefer the 10 inch knitting. Any one know where I can find a pair of the shorter needles in wood?
Although I’ve crocheted for years, I’m brand new at knitting. The only things I’ve worked on so far are the Cast On and the Knit stitch. But I notice that after each row I knit, I am inadvertently added a stitch to the needle.
For example, if I start with 20 cast on stitches, after knitting 2 rows, I now have 22 stitches on my needle after the row is completed.
Why is this happening? I’m assuming it shouldn’t…
Thanks in advance for your help!

I am a beginner at knitting, I just learned how to knit only using one needle. Now that my number stitches are done, how do I transfer them to the next needle “casting on”, using the same method as the one needle. I have looked online and seen videos, but they are too fast for me, and then I get frustrated.
I want to make a lovely scarf for my best friend. I tend to knit on the sofa. My cats sit on the sofa any time, and tend to sit near me while I am knitting. My friend is very allergic to cats and I want to make her this scarf without being something she is allergic to. Any suggestions (that do not involve getting rid of my cats)?
