You must absolutely check this!
Up until now I knew resin only for making jewelry, but this tutorial on how to make resin knitting needles is ingenious and the needles are fantastic!
However I recommend strongly to check the (admittedly many) comments, because they’re discussing there their (also bad) experiences.
If you are a little scared by resin just as I am you can however try to make some self-made wooden knitting needles.
But the others are more beautiful ;-)
