In doing dozens of Inspira Cowls, I have just with my most recent one discovered a way to make the purling in fairisle so much easier. the pattern has a few knit stitches in one yarn and then a few purl stitches with another yarn. I use Portuguese knitting for the purl yarn and continental for the knit stitches. When the time comes to knit, I put the purling yarn behind my needle, knit the stitches and then pull the yarn to the front again to purl. Wish I had discovered this trick years ago.

I have a couple of comments about the question of knitting fairisle with the floats on the outside. You can still knit it that way, don't have to purl. you will just be knitting across the back of the tube instead of the front. Like the tube would be at the front of your knitting instead of behind it and then just turn it inside out when you are done. See next comment.

I love DPNs. I learned on them but have migrated to all the other methods but sometimes I miss them and how well my tension is and I go back to them lol. It took me awhile to get used to flexi flips. I don't mind the magic loop but I love 2 circulars. The magic loop enables me 2 socks at a time.
