That is a great idea. Between the kids tripping over my yarn and the cat playing with it I got a little frustrated. But I love that cute little bag it seems so helpful.

love the idea of the yarn owl. I'm always looking for a way to take my yarn with me without it getting tangled in other things I carry along! and it will keep those lighter colored yarns and cottons clean!!!

These pins look flimsy and do not show up well. If you are wearing something bulky or with a lot of color, the pin would be lost on the garment.

I personally think the appearance of the shawl pin is great! Some people don't want something large or gaudy to distract from the beauty of the shawl or sweater. nice idea; subtle but cute.

The light LOOKS like a great tool for me - after my eye surgery I am left with a 25% vision loss for close work - this has made crocheting very difficult - especially in low light! I would love the chance to wing one of these lights - I try not to whine - but disability income doesn't allow for too many luxeries or unplanned purchases :=)

I store my dpns in their original sleeves, in a plastic storage box in my closet!
Posted by: Debbie Yencha | November 04, 2010 at 06:02 AM
I use my Tupperware spagetti container for my DPNs. It's a pain though since I have to dump everything out to get to the DPN I need. This would definitely look and function better!

I have my straight knitting needles & Crochet hooks in sewn cases like this one. I kept my dps in the plastic cases they came in. The dps you buy now don't come in cases ,just loose in cardboard /plastic boxes.I have been hunting for a sewn case like you show on your site. I'm glad I found a place to get a case for my dps.

I store my needles in a drawer and in pencil like holders. It always takes a bit of time to find the right size for a project. I really need something like this. I bought fabric to try and make a needle case about a year ago. Seems that it is a bit down on the priority list. This may be my answer!
Posted by: Patricia Cloud | November 12, 2010 at 12:11 PM
The dpn case is great! I keep mine in a rubbermaid container and it is frustrating to dig through to find the set that I want!
Posted by: Lynn Ketelsen | November 12, 2010 at 12:21 PM
I store my DPN's in my sewing box! I would love to have nice compact holder that folds out like this.

I have a cart that holds all my knitting supplies but I seem to lose a DPN or two from each size when I finish a project and usually end up buying a new set for each new project. I love the idea of a place to store them together. It would be great to even label them & not have to use a sizer to guess what I have.

My needles are scattered everywhere. I have a myriad of knitting bags, all with WIPs along with accompanying needles. I'm constantly looking for needles. As for dpns, don't even ask. They just seem to grow legs and get up and move from bag to bag, room to room, needle case to needle case! My needles are more disorganized than I am!

I absolutely love this DPN case.. I have mine in pencil boxes, and they are not in the same place sadly. This would be so nice to have. I hope whomever is lucky enough to receive it treasures it.

Most of my needles are stored in a department store gift box. If the original packaging for the needles is no longer around; the needles are just thrown in the box loose with all of the others - no matter what the length or style. Pairing them up is sometimes a challenge now that I tend to buy all the same brand of needles. Obviously I need to get myself more organized. A needle case like this for my dpn will get me started. Thanks for the introduction.

Would love to win!!

I store my knitting needles in my husband's old winter socks. They have a plush inside that is great protection for my treasures. I sew a seam down the center and put dp's on one side and straights on the other; the write the size on the outside with a laundry marker. The whole thing goes into a plastic bin. I always know where my Skakel's are and they don't bang against anything and stay nice. Recycle, recycle, recycle!

Just saw the M&M stitch markers. I'm fairly new to knitting and even newer to using stitch markers. I'm currently working on a cardigan where the pattern even states where to place your markers. I LOVE IT! It makes remembering where to do something very important and not rely totally on my memory! ALSO, my initials are MMM so m&m's have always been my thing! I'll have to get me a set now!
Posted by: Mona | January 18, 2011 at 11:18 AM
Those are sooo.. cute. I love stitch makers! & the M & M ones are so cool!
I would love to win them.

I absolutely love the M&M stitch markers.......they are just the cutest and would definitely make my knitting so cool.
Posted by: PJ Gaumond | January 18, 2011 at 03:36 PM
I got to have those M&M stitch markers, I love them. What a wonderful find!
Posted by: annette Mckane | January 18, 2011 at 06:34 PM
The M&M markers are absolutely terrific. I love them. My daughter collects everything M&M and she will absolutely love seeing me using them on the items I make for her and the grandchildren.
Posted by: Beatrice Rudolph | January 18, 2011 at 07:27 PM
I love the M&Ms markers....Not only are the useful but they are collectables.
Posted by: Leslie Traubert | January 18, 2011 at 08:39 PM
so creative. My plastic ones are always breaking. I would adore a set of these.
Posted by: cyndie | January 19, 2011 at 08:46 AM
Awesome M&M"s Would be fun when putting it down as would be trying to keep the kittens and even the grandbabies away from eating them. What an delight to be using would certainly make u smile while u worked on ur project.
Posted by: Debra Burke | January 19, 2011 at 07:16 PM
I think the M&M stitch counters are adorable. I am like you I have just used the cheapest I could get by with but after seeing these I may go for the gusto!!!!
Posted by: Mary Truman | January 22, 2011 at 01:05 PM
Really neat stitch markers. I also have been knitting for years and use different colored yarn or plastic markers but would really love to have these fun accessories. They would make it fun to place the markers when required.
Posted by: Joanne Hudes | January 23, 2011 at 01:26 PM
Neat idea. It will help a young person to learn to knit.
Posted by: Nancy Mason | February 12, 2011 at 11:37 AM
The M&Mmarkers are adorable and would add a touch of whimsy to my knitting. They would be fun to look at while doing a necessary job and bring a smile to my face every time I saw them. The yarn shawl pin would go with every shawl or sweater I own. It would also be a great conversation starter and a good was to mention Sweater Babe.
Posted by: Janice Van Arsdol | February 12, 2011 at 03:26 PM
Those are adorable and at least they don't have to worry about having pretzels stuffed in them...ROFL. But would be more than willing to put them on a roller coaster ride when doing my knitting/crocheting.
Posted by: Deb Burke | February 12, 2011 at 03:49 PM
I love the M&M stitch markers. They will stand out against almost any color and are so adorable.
Posted by: Dana Faber | February 12, 2011 at 07:19 PM
These markers are absolutely adorable and will do so well in the Civil war shawl I am making. I can only drool on her whimsical stitch markers that she make. Can I win them? LOL
Posted by: Christiane Johnson | February 13, 2011 at 07:26 AM
I hope this comment sticks and I am not tooo late. I love these and could REALLY use some stitch markers!

I am a northern Calif. potter making wheel thrown knitting bowls. They sell well here and in Southern Oregon.
I am interested if you though they could be listed in the knitting store list in Calif.
