I have been playing with the sewing machine again, and finished a needle roll for the three sets of bamboo circulars I have. I bought these from the Bamboo Knitting and Crochet Centre<\/a>, and I have the 50cm set, the 80cm set, and the 100cm set. I thought these would cover most eventualities \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

I have used the same idea as I did with the roll for the dpns. There is a pocket for each size of circular, then a flap which folds over and press-studs down to hold all the needles in their pockets, and the whole lot rolls up and fastens into a roll with another press-stud.<\/p>\n

I am very pleased with it and it seems to do the job well. I am slowly becoming more organised!<\/p>\n

I have been having a very fun time reading through these, and am planning which things to knit first \ud83d\ude42 I am particularly taken with a couple of circular designs from the 1890s. They are designed as doilies I think, but would be great as a shawl if worked in thicker yarn with larger needles. I think I am gearing up for a lace phase.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
