I have the Addi Click set, the very first generation. While these needles are still going strong, the pouch to store them in unfortunately started to disintegrate. But, the Addi head office helped me get a replacement! 😃

The riddle seems to be solved - someone on ravelry found this listing

https://curiocabinetantiques.com/products/victorian-blued-steel-knitting-needles-in-original-box-c-1850

and those needles look a lot like the ones I have. As far as I understood, they are not painted / printed, but a "blueing" technique is used, that changes the color of steel unless you cover it.

So I'm very impressed, that I have knitting needles that are maybe 175 years old.

I've also asked on ravlery about those needles - one additional pair has surfaced, bought at a thrift store in the UK a while back. I bought mine in Denmark, so they are probably from northern Europe. But nothing else so far.

They are magnetic so probably made from steel, which matches the relative heaviness. And they are 20 cm / 8 in

I've taken a better picture - maybe some additional information appears?

Knitters, have any of you used the Addi Novel lace needles? thoughts?

#knitting #KnittingNeedles #AddiNovel

The summer holiday is suddenly at its end, so I took the time to buy 800 grams of #KnittingYarn in four earthy colours and some extra sets of 2 mm #KnittingNeedles.
The, now, two grandchildren can thus expect tightly knitted mittens for cold winter days ...

#Birds are using #AntiBird #spikes to make their nests

#Magpies and #crows have been seen making nests using spikes placed on buildings to deter birds from nesting

"So far, Hiemstra and his colleagues have observed this behaviour in carrion crows (Corvus corone) at one site in the #Netherlands and in Eurasian #magpies (Pica pica) at sites in #Belgium, the Netherlands and #Scotland.

"In a tree near a hospital in Antwerp, Belgium, a magpie made a nest containing around 1500 metal spikes. The spikes on the side of the building closest to the tree were gone, while those on the other side were still intact. This suggests that the birds have been ripping the spikes out, as opposed to collecting loose spikes.

"The researchers have also seen magpie nests with defensive domes containing #BarbedWire and #KnittingNeedles."

Alrighty here goes my #liveknit experience, where I'll be #liveknitting and sharing all my silly thoughts. Not sure which hashtag I'll keep using.

Got some #BigTwist twinkle yarn from #Joann's on discount. And 60% off some #knittingneedles. Watched some vidyas on #knitting. I can do #knit stitch but not #purl yet. I enjoy #castingon, lol.

First attempt-- too short oops. Trying again. 🤔 I'm not bothering counting until I'm happy with my length...

Now that my daughter has her set of "Definitely Not Vampire Stakes," I can show you mine -- 9 mm needles and a 5 mm crochet hook in a cool bag. I can see using these with art yarns to make some textured scarves. I found them on Wil Wheaton's Facebook page and bought them that night which was good because they were sold out the next day. The nice thing is that part of the funds went to https://www.facebook.com/ChicagoFoundationforWomen. #Vampires #VampireStakes #KnittingNeedles #CrochetHooks #TwistedHanks #KnittersofMastodon #ChicagoFoundationForWomen #quirky #WilWheaton @knitting @fiberarts
