People are doing rocket science and quantum mechanics, and yet no one has invented a knitting needle that displays the current number of stitches it's holding.

Disappointing.

@pointysticksncoffee I can remember my mother having knitting needles with a little cube attached which could be manually turned to display a number. This is from 50 odd years ago, so I may be completely misremembering.
@Ivor @pointysticksncoffee Yes. I had forgotten all about that. Thanks, it has brought back lovely memories of Mum.
