Here are 4 balls of very colorful Katia Tropical Punch ribbon yarn in varying thickness along its length. Very tropical indeed, lol. 50 g balls/ 75m with a gauge of 18 x 20 in 4 - 4.5mm dk needles. Now, what am i to do with them. Another tube top or halter perhaps. I think that’s what i can knit with only 4 balls, the last of what the yarn store has. Or maybe if i no longer like it by the time i want to work with it, i’ll change it to something else. Forgotten what made me buy them in the first place. Oh, that’s so ME.

Nice, right. Debby’s my best friend and i got her started knitting last year. Then she got pregnant and then she’s all busy with her baby now and has not much time to knit. But that didnt stop her from buying this bag for me. She also bought one in pink for herself. And when she brought it over for me a short while ago, the first thing that came to my mind was it’s gonna make a great knitting bag. In my favorite shade of green color too!!! And that’s what she has in mind too, lol. See, that’s what best friends are like: we think alike. Now go tell me what a wonder bag and friend i have, lol.

Lolol, i’ve absolutely no idea what these are for. Marking pins? Mark what?? I dont think you need much guessing that these came together with my Tulip knitting needles set, lol. You can see those colorful tulips. I dont think i’ve opened the flap before also. Practically virgin needles. Gee… what am i supposed to do with these??? In all my knitting years, and i’ve yet to use these.

Used to protect the pointed ends of knitting needles. The bigger knitting needles wont hurt that much. These are for my larger knitting needles, say 4mm and above. It’s the smaller ones that hurt, and breaks easily too if not handled carefully. I hardly use these. I cant seem to find the smaller rubber point protectors. Must have lent them to my friend whom i’m teaching how to knit. I found that the smallers ones being sold now doesnt really hold on to the smaller 3mm, 2.5mm and 2mm knitting needles. The quality of the rubber is somewhat harder. Dunno, uses less latex and more plasticiser perhaps.
