More Needles

I found a local source of Casein a few weeks ago by contacting the whole sale office. The source is Fancy Tiger which is pretty much downtown. Downtown always translates to parallel parking my mind, something I try not to do. I have succeed admirably at avoiding this over the years. So, I waited until Rudy innocently asked me what I want to do. I mentioned I was looking for some particular knitting needles and that it would be nice to see Enchanted.

So, off we went. They did have a supply of the needles. I was looking for double points, particularly my favorite sock size which is a 2. I will admit I thought I was out of luck at first glance because the swallow needles were in a drawer not on the wall. Since, it sound like they were thinking about changing stock, I bought several sizes of double points as you can see.

There was a warning that they had seen a number of broken needles being brought back. I suspect they might break easier than wood if sat up on. However I don't plan to do this. Through various experiments, I found sitting on needles uncomfortable at best.

The other needles I have are from Fiber Space in answer to my original quest for needles after using my first set of double points seen in the second photo. As you can see one pair has a scarf on them.

And yes, we did go to the movie after I secured my needles.
