warning...Knitting needles
Comments (6)I love the idea of the washer.. If I can find some with a small enough hole, I'm going to try that next. The reason I chose the knitting needles is because I wanted a flat surface to glue to, without the bulkiness of adding a bottle/dish. I didn't want anything to get in the way of the birds. I felt that a vase or something would make it harder to tell exactly what they were at a glance. The needle hardened back up after I removed it from the soil. I am convinced it was the moisture in the soil that softened it. I don't use insecticides and it was in my new grill planter, so there isn't anything residual because it was all new potting soil.... the only thing I can figure is it's a really old needle and is made of something other than what I assume is plastic. I only posted this so no one else gets the wrong kind....See MoreAll About Knitting Needle Conversions

Comments (12)According to the TSA website, they do allow knitting or crochet needles, but you can't have scissors of any kind. Nail clippers are allowed and are a good make-do yarn cutter. TSA only applies to domestic flights though. My understanding is that many European countries don't allow knitting needles. Lots of people get away with bringing needles where they are technically not allowed, but I would hate to have them taken away. Probably best to check with your airline if you are flying outside the US. A good tip I saw on another site was to pack a padded envelope just in case you need to mail your knitting to yourself (rather thn have it confiscated) Here is a link that might be useful: craftfetish blog...See Morehannah_ma
