Circular Needle Case

What do ya’ll use to store your circular knitting needles? I’m not necessarily looking to get rid of the original packaging because I like knowing the brand names (although I could easily label them if it were the right case). But I have so many, that I’d like to figure out a way to store them. Not to mention, I end up buying multiples (I have soooo many US 2 circulars), and I need to find a better way to track and store them. TIA!

I like a hanging holder like this because it doesn’t wind the circular cable again reinforcing the curl.

or a notebook with large holders.

I have a couple of A5 ring binders, and small plastic zip pockets. Makes it very easy to flip through and organise.

I’m using Holder Case Salmonmac show from Amazon. Storing circulars and DPN in same pocket, dont have many doubles needles.
Not knitting all time, to much pain to handle.

ZKOhio, I’m sorry to hear about the pain. Does taking frequent breaks from knitting help at all?

I admire your perseverance, ZKOhio. I hope that with time, things improve.

I’m sorry to hear of your pain @ZKOhio it’s such a difficult thing to live with.

Ty for your support it means a lot and keep me going.
This is my needle storage of cheep bamboo needles but surprisingly wery good and sturdy (broke only 2 :sweat_smile:)
Instead of finishing that green sweater (neckline and sewing left) I did some needlepoint for sons to left them as remembrance once I left. One is done and linen for bear is getting grid to start stitch.

Oh, boy! I FEEL your pain! I had PT for my shoulder for 3 months and it was great. I guess I didn’t do enough exercise afterward and I’m not knitting or crocheting at all now. I switched to counted cross stitch which I hadn’t done since before my carpal tunnel surgeries in 2007. Now I’ve hurt my shoulder again after a week in bed with covid and nothing else to do.

Sorry to hear that, hope you will recover soon :pray:.

Sorry you guys are feeling so much pain! I’m right there with you…I power through because I like knitting so much and pretend the pain isn’t there! Probably not healthy. Haha!

The needlepoint is beautiful! A fabulous graphic.
