Needles!
Some yarns knit easier on wood needles. Others prefer metal needles. Still others work great on either kind of needle, but switching needle material can change your gauge. I fell in love with Dyakcraft needles years ago and I'm fortunate to have several sets of the wooden needles. Northern Lights is their anodized aluminum needle line and they've just recently reintroduced it. They are adding in colors slowly, and late this past winter, they introduced Rose! Being the Pink Lemon, I had to get a set of Rose needles, because, PINK! They arrived yesterday and they're just beautiful! I have a pattern picked for their debut knitting and the yarn is wound. Unfortunately, I got antsy waiting for them and cast on my Heathered Ruby cardigan. I'm going to get that finished before I start knitting all the glorious pinkness, but once it's done - watch out!
It's going to be all pink all the time!

Congrats on your new needles!!! Enjoy. 🙂
You are a terrible temptress; you sent me to that site and their newest color is robin's egg blue. My favorite color. Way too expensive. I do not NOT NOT need more needles. Grrr.
