Organized


I've finally organized my knitting needles and notions... I am missing good few needle tips and have way too many spare cables for the interchangeables, how's that?


I have this lovely needle roll by MirkaDesign and she has one really pretty one left in her shop, I think she also does custom orders and has many fabrics to choose from.


I really love mine, it is fairly big, but sturdy and everything fits into this one needle roll. Fixed circulars (well, I have more, but these are my favourite), Knitpicks sets (you can fit three, there's one more row on the top) double pointed needles - mine are wooden, by Dyak craft. Also cable needles, stitch holders and needle gauge. I like these stitch holders that look like a giant safety pin, and I'd love to get a prettier needle gauge, preferably out metal, I like the vintage ones, but don't know where to get one.

The top lefthand large orange pocket won't fit fixed circulars, but it's great for these Knitpicks thingies for the interchangeable cables.

And there are also three large pockets accesible from the top. One hides cables themselves - and I have many of those.

Other one has more double pointed needles in this case Knitpicks steel ones. The short kind, only 4'' which are supposedly for socks, but they poke me right into the palm of my hand, so I don't like those too much.

What needles and notions do you like?
