New needles to buy!

My fellow needlecrafters,

I rec'd a nice message from someone who attended the Stitches Midwest
Show and she was sharing new things she saw. I love new needles and
she shared this website where you can custom make your needles to some
extent.

No, I am not affliated with any knitting supply company; just your
normal average yarn addict

Etsy sells hand carved crochet hooks from wood. Wow do those feel
good!

I decided I just have to have to have a set for myself. I ordered the
7" in size 7 - 4.5mm with the stiletto point and the swirl end cap.
They arrived in today's mail (very quickly I might mention) and they
are amazing! I set to casting on a 12 dozen stitches and got to
working up a test swatch. Mmm mmm, they are a total dream to work
with. I have found my new favorite needles for sure!

I look at the link you had provided. They do look nice. They cost more than
I am used to paying for needles. Maybe I will treat myself to a pair as a
reward after getting through the college class I just started today. I am
going to need an incentive

Are they made of aluminum or something else? I couldn't find a good
description anywhere.

My friend Jan in MN asked: Are they made of aluminum or something

I believe the Signature Needles are made of anodized aluminum. I will
copy the owner on this posting and perhaps we can get an _official_
statement on that point. All I know is that they are absolutely the
best needles I have ever used, period.

Custom Needles by Signature Needles
Aluminum needles provide light weight and strength and allow stitches
that move quickly on the sleek surface. They are rust free and non-
allergenic. Unfortunately, the options for metal knitting needle
lovers have been limited. Signature needles have a surface that has
been hand polished to an 8 micron finish right here in the USA. In
addition, a choice of points for different yarns, different needle
lengths for different projects, and an array of beautiful caps make
for a needle personally designed by you for you.
