Still organising
If you thought that I’m fully organised now, that I’ve put away my neatly winded balls and cleverly organised project bags, you are WRONG.
My needles are still in a tangled mess. Except the straights. They are bent.
Something must be done with them. Again, Etsy. I have found some wonderful, clever needle organisers.
You can put your straights and circulars in a neat case, with all your knitting notions, then you make a roll from the case, tie it with a pretty ribbon, and you are done. This is, of course, if you didn’t yet put all your knitting needles and notions into your project bags

The good news: there are rolls for dpns as well! Dpns are well known to get lost, at least one of the five (four) piece set is always missing. Never more. You will WANT to put these nasty little needles away, just to be able to touch these little piece of art accessories.

Glass knitting needles Have you ever used glass knitting needles? These are intriquing to me. I've never seen them in person or used them, but they appeal to my aesthetic nature. I don't know how practical they are. They might be aesthetically pleasing, but annoying to use. If you've ever seen or used...... -
Knitted graffiti Some people have such fun ideas! This group of 11 from Houston, target public places with knitting. Sometimes they choose the target; other times the target comes to them.
