Have a happy and restful weekend, everyone — I’m looking forward to catching up on all the comments from while I was away …
I didn’t ask, but I kinda expected a black Porter Bin. This is my absolute favorite knitting bag/accessory! I carry it with me everywhere. It holds a lot, and I swear I can’t live without it. A black one, needless to say, was just ordered!
Thanks, Barbara!
A Lykke question: Do you know whether the company is planning to make an interchangeable set that includes 16″ cords? I’m very tempted to invest, but I make enough hats that I think I would miss having a 16″ option in the current set….
The way I understand it is they’d have to make a shorter tip (shorter than the ones currently in the set) to work with an interchangeable cord to make a 16″. If I’m wrong about that, Karen will correct me. We do sell 16″ fixed circs, though, in all twenty million sizes!
A short cord requires shorter tips, and they are working on a short set. I don’t know when it will be available, but that will be a separate set. And as DG mentioned, we do have fixed circs in the 16″ length in the meantime: http://www.fringesupplyco.com/product/lykke-driftwood-circular-needles
the handles on the porter bin get me EVERY TIME

Always thought the Porter bin looked interesting and now in black it has to be mine! Ordered!
Thanks for great products and an outstanding blog!
Thank you!
