FO - Needle Case!

I recently bought the KPO and :heart: love :heart: them but I do agree with the one complaint I often hear about them - the case just isn’t very good. Well I couldn’t let my needles sit idly by while this problem persisted so I ran out and bought some Sugar 'n Cream Cotton and whipped up this case!



The whole thing was done with two balls of Sugar 'n Cream on size 7 needles using the double knitting technique (that Amy explains here). I think this technique is a lot of fun and I took advantage of the fact that swapping colors from front to back creates a wall. This is how I created all the pockets and just bound-off the front color at the top of the pockets to create openings. Of course I love icord too so I added some of that for ties and for a convenient loop to stick my needles in that tucks into the upper left pocket.

Thanks for looking!

That is Awesome!
Well done. What creativity, and I love your color choices. :cheering:

Way to go! What a beautiful case!

Wow! I love that! I’m sure that comes in handy! Great job!

That is awesome!! I have a needle case but mine is made with fabric and sewn together.

That is really cute. Is there any pattern? It’s one of those things where I want to just say “Would you make me one too?” But asking for a pattern seems better.
:star:

Lovely! You are very creative!!!

I love my Options case :teehee:

Adorable!

I love it!!!

I’d love to have the pattern or the basic instructions for it. So Cute…I can already see mine in brown and blue :slight_smile:

IT IS BEAUTIFUL! :muah:

That’s awesome! :slight_smile:

That’s awesome! I love, love, love it!!!

How cute! I love it. :heart:

Very creative! It would take me a million years to come up with something like that. I love it!

That is soooooo cute! I love the colors!

Wow!! I must applaud your creativity! :yay: And I have to agree that I’m not sure I could come up w/ something like that on the fly. I think you ought to put the pattern together & publish it! :thumbsup: Your use of the yarn colors is terrific, too!!

totally cool - great colors too

You just whipped that up? :noway: Wow! That’s really neat! :cheering:

Thanks for all the love everyone! :muah:

I know a couple of you asked for a pattern or something similar. I am going out of town for a few days but when I get back I promise I’ll try to retrace my steps and write something up. It’s pretty easy if you’ve done double knitting before and if you haven’t, it takes a little getting used to but of course Amy does a great job explaining it on this site!

That is fantastic. I’ve been wanting to make a (sewn) needle case for quite awhile but yours is much better!!
