Welcome to KH. You were sent to the right place. You can watch the video and any questions you have can get answers. At the top of the page there is a tab for Free Videos and this one is in Advanced Techniques. Here’s the link: Small Diameter Knitting on Two Circular Needles. If you have any questions about your pattern a link to it will be very helpful. This sounds like a great project. Enjoy! :knitting:

I am using this technique for my first sweater because I only have a 29" circular and I need a 40 chest circumference. I like this technique, but for less stitches I would probably do magic loop.

29" is probably too short for magic loop even for a small diameter project. You risk stressing and breaking the cable and yes, I did that once. The best solution IMO is a set of circular needles that you can use a longer or shorter cable to suit your project. I only have fixed circs for knitting sox because the interchangeables that I use don’t go down below size 4 and I needed sizes 0 - 3 which I got in 47".
