I got these needles from the pound shop (UK equivalent of dollar stores).







The great thing is, if you make em too tight (like I did) you can stick em back on the oven to re-meltify them and re-shape them.

Thanks! Actually, the needles were too crappy to knit with (you get what you pay for, I suppose) so at least now they serve a purpose.

I really like that yellow one!
Was it "Poundland" you got them from?

Yes, it was Poundland!  Hello fellow Brit!  Go and get yourself some cheapo needles and melt em to inhale the plasticky toxic goodness.

Maybe I am the only who does not know how to make these. They are such a great idea and so colorful that I would love for you to tell us all what you did to make them Great creation.

AHA! I was thinking the same thing!

Oh those are just too cool! Could you do the boiling water trick like with the toothbrushes? I'm afraid I'd melt them in my oven XD!!
