This black bag used to be my highschool schoolbag, lol. I started knitting after i left school, so, it came in handy. I use it to store all my knitting needle sets and some oddballs of yarns; both new and used. I even found some “dead” projects inside. A dinosaur, a crocheted long piece of dunnowat, the bottom of a crocheted blouse; GOSH!!! How long ago were those projects??? I’ll most probably unravel those and salvage the yarn for smaller things like pouches. Or maybe use them to crochet flowers and embellishments. See how things go.

This is my circular knitting needles set encased in a beautifully quilted holder. Some refer to this as collar needles. Also made of bamboo. I cant seem to find the brand anywhere. Whatever, they are the same. Some are very long for knitting in the round or for open-front tops. The short ones are for smaller collar and armholes. I asked the shop and they said that it’s longer for sale. What a pity. Such a beautiful item. Costs about Rm400 when i bought it the same time as my Tulip knitting needles.

See…. each needle has its place in the holder. Didnt i say it’s beautiful. And so organised. Only one has gone missing over the years…sigh. What a waste. The ones at the bottom of the set are what’s available at the shop now. Sold as singles. Will update the price when i buy more next time. Of which i most probably will as i dont them in smaller sizes like 2.5mm and 2mm.
