Knitter's Pride Symfonie Dreamz Interchangeable Circular Needle Set!!!!

I have been working on this post since forever!!!

Finally getting around to it now!  :)

Well Happy Birthday to me!!!!!
 
Guess what my MIL got me for by Birthday (like 3 weeks ago)?!?!?!
 

YAY!!!
 

She has a set of these and LOVES them!!!
 
When I showed her my crazy collection of needles and HOW I store them,
she had the idea right away for these!
 

 
 
She had the idea to attached a little doo-dad (or bauble) to the cord key (or cord connector) so that they're easier to see!

And also, now they're cute and all styled up! 
 
:)

 
These cords are nice 'cause they don't curl!
 




YAY!
 
I'm really excited about this!

I've been working on circulars exclusively for quite awhile now and am so glad to be able to have them all in one place!

I can't tell you how many same size circulars I have with different cord sizes! (ie- lot's of size 9 circulars in 16", 32", 24", etc)
 


The wood on the needles is beautiful and so smooth!

And I love all the colors!

Thank you, MIL!

Happy Birthday to me!

How do you store your needles?

Well... 

I think it's safe to say that I have plenty of needles...


How do you store your needles?

So far, I throw mine (my circulars anyway) into any bag that will hold them... 
until said bag breaks and then I find another bag.

El Hub found a needle app on my phone called Knitting Stash and I really do like it!

It's perfect for if I'm at the yarn shop and considering yet ANOTHER pair of needles!

But for here at home, I find the good old fashioned piece of paper with my handwritten notes works perfectly for me.


It's been a LONG time since I've used straight needles... I use my circulars for EVERYTHING I make (except socks... those go on double-pointeds).

So the straight needles are in a proper needle holder roll thingy that my mom made me. 

But these guys... I dunno.  So far, this bag and paper inventory is working well...



Whatta mess!

How about you?

How do you store your needles and how do you keep track of them?
