I would love a set of crochet hooks to share with my volunteer group “The Blankateers” that so generously give their time to make blankets and hats for nursing home and chemo patients in our city. What a nice site you have. Thanks”

Josh of eknittingneedles.com said that he may be offering another giveaway next month, so stay tuned!

I received the circular knitting needles and one set of double pointed needles from eknitting needles.com today and I am beyond impressed! The needles themselves are like touching silk and the tube “as shown in the picture” are very substantial and not like my other circular needles where it has the wire cable.  I cast on a few stitches and took a picture to show you how lovely they are. As you know, I am holding the circular needle giveaway and eknittingneedles.com is also offering my readers a special discount. I did buy my needles and I intend to use the discount and purchase some more right away. This is an opportunity I do not want to pass up. I bought the 16 in circulars and I am going to get another set in another size for larger projects. This way I can use the coupon and get the free shipping on my $15 purchase.  I encourage you all to take advantage of this amazing value while the contest is being held. I intend to knit the evening away. So check out the circular knitting needle giveaway again to get your code and get over to eknitting needles.com and pick up the needles you need.  Here is the link for the giveaway:

This is a real treat for my readers! Josh, of eknittingneedles.com is offering a complete set of their circular knitting needles. There are 15 gorgeous bamboo needles running from size US 0 through size US 15. I ordered a set and I am so pleased with the pricing and quality. They also sell double pointed bamboo needles in any size you need. I purchased a set of size 15 for a hat I am doing. This is a chance of a lifetime to have every size needle you need at your fingertips.

Eknittingneedles.com not only sells knitting needles but also beautiful bamboo crochet hooks in a large variety of sizes.  Bamboo is my needle of choice, because the yarns do not slip and they become better and better with age when it builds up that wonderful patina that comes from use. Handling something as natural as bamboo just feels good in your fingers. Just think of all the gorgeous knitted felts you can make with these wonderful knitting needles.

When I spoke to Josh today he said the 16 inch circulars were going fast and if these are what you’re looking for there would likely be a bit of a wait until he replenished the stock. He has the 16″ circular needles on order. In the meantime, he has all the others in stock. He also mentions that the Tunisian Crochet hooks are flying out of their online shop. 

In the near future, Josh informed me that they are going to be carrying organic knitting yarns and when that happens I will certainly be doing another article about their new yarns.  Besides this wonderful giveaway Josh is offering everyone here a 10% discount at checkout you would enter: felting854

I thank Josh of eknittingneedles.com for his amazing generosity.  An added bonus is that you get free shipping on orders over $15 and what could be better than this!  They also accept PayPal and credit cards and they also take checks and money orders.

For this giveaway, go over to eknittingneedles.com and check out the needles that they carry at eknittingneedles.com merchandise and then come bak here and in the comment area type “and mention what you like about their products” and “enter me” YOU must enter here not at eknittingneedles.com! .  This giveaway will run from May 1st through May 14th good luck and knit-felt on!
