The smaller needle, the faster I knit, by a lot. The
smaller the needle, the more 'average' I knit. I'm working with 2mm needles
currently and it feels like the fabric is just flying off the needles. With a
rough timing, I am literally knitting 20% faster, just moving from 2.5mm needles
to 2mm. I'm a tight knitter. I'm very used to going up several needle sizes to
get even close to gauge. What I am discovering though, is the smaller I go with
needle size, the more average my gauge becomes. Maybe even (shock!) loose.
What does this all mean? Not much. Just a curiosity in my wandering
thoughts today.
