Double pointed Knitting Needle Labels - Small

GirlontheRocks — Sat, 13 Jun 2009 18:41:18 GMT

My knitting needle case was a mess. It took forever for me to locate a full set of DPN's and even longer to find my needle sizer to figure out the size. So I designed special needle markers to hold my needles together, and label them with their size. Each marker is a lightweight bamboo charm attached to a super-stretchy elastic. Wrap the elastic around your needles a few times, and you are all set! Please note that because of natural variations in the bamboo material, your set may vary slightly from the one pictured. This new and improved version has BOTH US and METRIC numbering. This set is designed for smaller needles (US0 to US4) and the 7 markers includes the numbers US0 / 2mm US1 / 2.25mm US1.5 / 2.5mm US2 / 2.75mm US2.5 / 3mm US3 / 3.25mm US4 / 3.5mm
