Here they are in their original pouch...
I own many pairs of needles already... but some of these filled in a few gaps in my stash. I treasured the new ones... so I made a NEW home for them... now they can bunk in with mine.

Well... they were cut from the original fabric. There wasn't enough fabric to use in the making of the new home but I felt I wanted to keep a small part of the original. I hope Michelle's friend is looking down and is pleased. The pattern was designed by Lyn Briggs called "Knitting Needle Roll".
