Vintage Knitting
Although I had purchased a full set of the rose interchangeable needles, I wanted to do some vintage knitting on smaller needles which were not available in the rose range. So I purchased these laminated wooden ones. Unfortunately one broke as I was putting it into the cable. I rang Kevin and he immediately sent a replacement. I used the needles and cable for my knitting which had 296 stitches on, it was not until I had to use straight needles later on in the knitting,(didn't have the correct size in interchangeable needles) did I realise how good the interchangeable needles were. My knitting on the straight needles was all bunched up and hard to work, whereas the interchangeable needles and cable allowed the work to spread out and knit more fuidly.
