How do you store your circ's?
I have decided to give away my old circular needles to my SIL but I don't think that throwing them into a bag with a needle gauge is a really good idea. If I had kept all the individual cases, I could just include them, but in a previous organising binge, I was sure I wouldn't need them.
They currently reside in pencil cases that are linked together with binder rings. I have written the size of the needles on the outside of each pencil case. While there is room for all the needles and the dpns in the pencil cases, I'm not sure if I want to give them away too. It has been a good system but it is really too big to carry around.
My Addis and ebony needles are in a Lexie Barnes circular needle case and it is packed. One day the zipper is going to burst and there is going to be knitting needle vomit all over...and I mean all over everything.
Has anyone out there tried the 'Circular Solution'? Is it something that looks better than it actually is?
I need the perfect organizational system? Does it exist?

I've been mulling that question - "Is there a perfect system to organize needles?" - for a long time. I currently have them split between a couple ziploc bags - for the frequently used ones - and a drawer. The drawer does a wicked impression of a springloaded bird's nest when I open it & try to take one out...
I have a vision for a perfect system, but haven't sat down to execute it. Let me know what you work out!
I bought a chipboard photo album at the scrapbook store & the 4x6 photo sleeves are the perfect size for addi turbo packages.
I'm trying the labeled zip-lock baggie solution.
