For me.. I lost all my straight needles.. So  I’ve been in the search for some new ones, and found these nice 10″ straight wood sets from KnitPicks.  They look like a good deal, still looking around.. if anyone knows of more sets, let me know!! :)

Welcome Back…

Hello everyone..

I figure, now that our house is mostly done and we have pretty much recovered from the flood, that I would try to get back into my knitting hobby.

The only problem I’m having is finding all my kneedles.. Many of them were under water.. I lost ALOT.. I have I think one or two of my interchangeable, but none of my straights, which means I need to buy lots more.

All my old needles were aluminium, but I’m planning on replacing them all with bamboo.. I really liek the bamboos and I think they will work with me better.

My first project back (I have a coupel actually) will most likely be this pattern from over at Ravelry for my daughter.. And I’m also thinking of the Jayne Cobb hat, cause it’s neat.

I’m also trying to get back into my life over at Knitting Help and some other forums.. We’ll see how that goes..

Hope to see you all on the other side of the needles.
