Anyone here get The Stitchery catalogue? I haven't embroidered for
decades, and I was just about to toss the catalogue in the recycling when I turned it over and on the back was "Knit Lite." Lighted knitting needles. Yes!! For a mere $15.95, you can own a pair of plastic needles (sizes 6, 8, 9, 10, 10.5, 11, 13, or 15), 18 inches long, with LED tips that use G3-A batteries to make them glow! Imagine how annoyed the people sitting next to you in the theater or the cinema will be as your tips flash back and forth! I HAVE to get a pair for my knitting SIL. www.thestitchery.com, item T66-546. |

I just saw these yesterday on the Clover website. I was rather stunned for a while - I just can't imagine why I'd (or anybody) would want lighted knitting needles. Very odd. : ) |

I have only 2 questions - one is - why no size 7? That's right, there are no size 7s! And the second question, is why are they so long? I would never use 18 inch needles! Alison |

I saw them in the Mary Maxim catalogue and then at Michael's. The only
thing is that they take three batteries per needle to light them. I like the long needles because I knit with the right needle tucked under my arm.

It's a reference to the Jedi Knights from the Star Wars series of
movies. They used "light sabers" -- sort of a magical sword that looked a little like a big glow-in-the-dark knitting needle. Mirjam Bruck-Cohen wrote: Sorry what is a Jeddi knitter ?
