[Nfb-krafters-korner] Circular Needles

[sunshine]

Yeah, sometimes at Michaels, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack! I would have gotten my circular needles while I was there, but didn't think of it. They'll be here later this week! By buying them at Michael's you saved yourself shipping. Had I used paratransit, I'd have paid for the rides the same amount I paid for shipping! LOL! I rarely ever use separate needles any more. The circulars are easier on my arms and hands!

Hugs and I'm glad you found some circulars!

Hugs

> > hmm, I think that Terry was referring to the length of the needles when she said 29. that is a fairly common length from what I have discovered  during my initial research of knitting needles. a length of 16 is not as common. what I happen to have now is a 24 length in my size 8 needles. I have not yet decided whether to get a 16 this time or another 24 to match. I do believe I will try a different texture  just to see if I like it better. I have bamboo needles which I do like.
