how many times can one pair of needles break? wednesday 02.02.2005

in case you're wondering if the aran along had done schmeebot in, you're right. that darn sweater is all that i work on these days.



11" old plastic circular by bates


isn't it a sore sight? i bought them a while back at in stitches, sb. it snapped as soon as i joined the casting on stitches for the aran sleeve. argh!

even sorer yet...




those #@&*%$! crystal palace needles. that's the second time they broke. the opposite end fell off while i was in sb last week. i repaired it using borrowed epoxy so i had to walk to ace hardware on clement street this morning to get my own. this is the third time i've experienced crystal palace needle failure. i own at least 30 pairs of them so goodness knows i'll need the glue.

...

attn sb knitters:

i see this ad every single time i check my yahoo mail for as long as i can remember. suddenly, i recognize the brunette.




i know that's not her picture but i just can't help thinking every time, "hey, that's what's her name!" any gueses?

I had my 16" circulars break recently too- for me the needle part is too small in 16"s and its really tedious to knit with, so I use double pointeds instead. Hey - I hate my yarn color I ordered for the aran... Ive lived with it a couple of days thinking it would grow on me but it hasnt - and now I have 12 hanks that Im not sure what to do with. Maybe Ill still do a sweater....
