Are there any polishing cloths/liquids for bamboo knitting needles?
I've looked all over the internet, and I can't find a single thing to polish my bamboo knitting needles. Some of the polish has worn off one of my pairs, and I'd like to make it shiny and new again. If anyone knows where to buy something to polish them or where I could take them to get them re polished, please let me know
Can I take bamboo knitting needles thru airport security?
Getting ready for an airline trip. It surely would be nice to be able to work on that top I'm knitting during the plane ride. I knit with bamboo not metal needles.. Does that matter? Are knitting needles allowed at all? seems to me if ball point pens and pencils are allowed the knitting needles would be too. BTW they are short and the circular type. two bamboo sticks like a lead pencil connected by a thin plastic thread ThanksThegypsy
