sock-crazy

A blog about knitting socks, shawls and various other items of interest including felted bags, hats and fingerless gloves. Also discussion about Golden Retrievers, reading about knitting and our local knitting group. Beginning in April 2013 this blog also added information about Main Street Yarn, my new yarn shop in Rebersburg, PA.

DPNs secured...finally

After years of adding loose DPNs to the basket, I decided it was time to organize them to see what I have. Well, I discovered I have a lot -- especially 5's, 6's and 8's. But they come in handy for hats which I knit a lot of these days. I was wasting time searching through needles to find a matching group, so I purchased a canvas case which as you can see is nicely divided and marked by sizes. There are three rows of pockets allowing for safe storage of various lengths of needles.

I have looked for a workable solution for several years but knew I needed something large. I found it. I prefer shopping from local vendors but after exhausting all possibilities I caved and purchased on-line.

All tucked in for future use

Rolled and tied for secure storage

Kim, I have that too, even though my collection of dpns is nothing like yours. When I organized my circs, I realized that I should never ever buy another size 4 or size 6 needle! Isn't it nice to have them all organized?!
