Circular and double pointed needles?
 
I haven't been here in a long time and I hope everyone is doing well.
Anyway, I have a class of 10 boys that are learning knitting and I
worked up a stocking cap pattern that uses US size 13 circular needles
(16"). I used my Denise needles to make the sample and now I find
that there are very few suppliers of this size of needle and I need to
also supply, eventually, double-pointed size 13 needles.

So has anyone seen an inexpensive circular needle I could source for
my class?

You can make some using dowels and tubing or filament. There's some
posts how to make them here -
http://www.craftster.org/forum/index...50521#msg50521
and here -
http://www.craftster.org/forum/index...7153#msg287153
and a tutorial
http://stringthings.blogspot.com/200...r-needles.html probably
other places online too.

You can get inexpensive bamboo ones on ebay too; they're from china and
about $1 each plus $2 shipping. They might charge less for shipping for
10 of them.
