I was posting pictures of all my blue knitting on my other blog, and realized that while my knitting is blue, my needles are black.
These are my favorite needles, Lantern Moon Destiny ebony circulars. They have been for several years. I love the way they feel, and the way they sound when I knit with them. And the tips that are just pointy enough. I scoop into my stitches rather than poke, and these are just right for me.
I like circulars both for knitting in the round, and also for knitting flat, back and forth. It keeps the weight of my knitting balanced under the needles, and keeps me from whacking people with my needle ends on airplanes. It also means the cat doesn’t want to attack the waving ends.
What’s on *your* Lantern Moon needles?
I’m knitting a little girls bolero out of my worsted for a sample. I’m working on something else that aren’t my ebony needles. I almost didn’t cast on because they were not ebonies!
I have the beginnings of another cocoknits vest with noro yarn on Lantern Moon circulars and a beaded cowl, also on LM circulars. I love the way the yarn slides so nicely – but not too much that it slips off. The wood is smooth but not slippery.
A sweater for my 3 week old grand daughter Daniella. Soft and cuddly just like her!
I have a lace shawl that needs to get done before October 8th, 2010!!
