A pinhole cast on may feel less fidgety if you begin with a crochet hook then transfer the stitches to your knitting needles.
The pinhole, disappearing, or invisible circular CO is primarily used for projects that are knit in the round and start with a small number of sts, usually 12 or less, like amigurumi, top down hats or toe-up socks. This type of cast on can be done with just your knitting needles, but if you find that too fidgety another option is to use a crochet hook. And the CO is even easier to manage if you use a crochet hook that has a knitting needle on the opposite end like the addi Duett hook & needle combo.
