No luck...

i think i am cursed with DPNs... i either break one of them (as i did with my last set) or i loose one of them.....and with both sets... the "accident" happens even before i can finish 1 pair of socks!

i am sad... i just had my Brittany DPN not long ago... and although i agree with both Ann and Helen they are not the sturdiest and sharpest of all needles to knit with (and there are times i struggle with my Jaywalkers because i had to be extra careful not to break those delicate needles), they are the best/smoothest i have ..... it slid down the side of the carseat.... and the harder i try to dig it out... the deeper it went until we could not see it completely. DH said to get to the needle, the seat will have to be dismantled .... chances of that happening?..... ABSOLUTELY NONE!

I will have to get a new set of needles ... oh well... at least i will now have 4 spare needles....what are the chances of loosing and breaking 4 in the next 3 months? ... touch wood!.... other than the Brittany which is a nice length.... heard from Ann, Clover is coming out with something similiar too... what else is there out there.... thats availiable in Australia..... *sigh*

needless to say.... very very little sock knitting done yesterday.... was in mourning for my lost needle... hahaha....i was still trying to dig for it this morning in the carpark at work! perhaps this is a sign that i have to try out other methods.... i do intend to try either the magic loop or 2 circular method anyway..... :))))
