Knitters Need the Right Tools! March Knit Blog Update!
March was a whirl of focussed knitting on my latest project, Bondi by Martin Storey from the Ocean Blue Collection in Rowan Denim Revive!
It's a big project...
it's two row stripes....
it has pockets...
and a hood...
and I'm almost done!
Whilst knitting my Bondi, it became obvious that I was using the wrong needle tips!
This led me to have a look at my needle collection....primarily Addi with a little Signature and KnitPro thrown in!
I ended up ordering new Addi Straights....and when they arrived....the hubby asked why I needed so many different needles! (silly man right)
Every Knitter needs a variety of tools...right?
Join me while I discuss the merits of the different needles in my collection.
It's a short update....sorry, but I've been too busy knitting!
