these are a few of my favorite things – knitting
Where to begin? There are so many it’s hard to pare it down to something manageable!
•The Chibi Darning Needle Set. I love the hooked needle, it makes weaving in ends and the mattress stitch SO easy.
•Mini Kacha-Kacha knitting counter. The thing I love most about this is that you can lock it. So many times Honor would come up and try to click it (loosing my place in my pattern!) and it would be locked, saving me (and him!) for certain doom.
•Misocrafty Sock Knitting Bag. I have two, and at least one (sometimes both) is in my purse at all times. I love it because it’s pretty and I’m never without my knitting.
•My mom makes these circular needle pouches. She made me one for my birthday and I use it so much. The nice thing is that I have ALL of my addi turbos with me in a compact pouch.
•While Addi Turbos are my favorite needles, I use my Denise needle set so much. I especially prefer it for knitting sweaters that call for multiple needle sizes. I just pop on the next size and keep on knitting. And I like that when I’m trying to get the gauge, I don’t have to worry if I don’t have the right size. (And hopefully very soon they will be back in stock at Tangle, things have been running VERY slow for the company with Christmas and TNNA.)
•Probably the most unexpected, I use Roller Pins a lot. I like them because they aren’t sharp and won’t break your yarn and they’re SO much bigger than regular sewing pins. I use them to pin two sides together when I’m seaming.
