Whenever I find knitting needles at the thrift store, I buy them. Especially pretty aluminum ones. These are most (not all) of my aluminum needles. Despite all of this, I still don’t always have the size I need…

Question by aboutowne: Where can I get a pair of 10 inch size 50 knitting needles made of other than plastic ?
I like knitting scarves to sell. I have some patterns calling for a size 50 knitting needles. All I have been able to find in the stores are Lion Brand and Susan Bates 14 inch plastic. For knitting scarves I prefer the 10 inch knitting. Any one know where I can find a pair of the shorter needles in wood?

Question by Nancy H: Why does the paint only wear off of one of my knitting needles?
I have several pairs of metal knitting needles that are starting to look a bit worn. The paint is wearing off the ends, but it only seems to happen on one needle. As far as I can tell I use both needles equally so I cannot figure out why the paint only wears off on one needle. It doesn’t cause any problems, but I am very curious.
