Please could you all have a look underneath and behind your sofa cushions for me?
Last night, I decided to knit some of those cute little Christmas puddings that hold a single Ferrero Rocher chocolate. I finished the first one and sewed it up. When I tried to start a second one, one of my knitting needles had completely vanished. This morning I stripped the sofa down and searched underneath it and down every crevice. No knitting needle, so I assume it has disappeared down the space time continuum and reappeared somewhere else. (To avoid confusion with multiple findings, mine is a 3.75 mm one.)
Sue, I hope you ate the chocolate.
Did you wear slacks with cuffs? was there a shoe close by?
Has your knitting needle been found yet?
The little knitted puddings sound cute...
Good luck - in the end you will have done your Christmas cleaning very early :-)

Then again if they decide to hang it across a room it would be good to thread through a curtain (have you also lost a scarf or a piece of fabric) to make a draft excluder across the doorway into their home.
I would love the pattern for the Xmas puddings please.
May i sugest you do what i do when something goes missing, Just stand in the middle of the room and say "Please " out loud and then looking around the room. this often results in me suddenly coming across it again. Make sure you say a thank you when you find it again as they have gone to the trouble to return it .After all the Borrowers are so very good and do a great job of keeping those dust bunnies at bay.
I'll email the pattern.
This was a wonderful post and so many cute answers. Thanks for initiating this entertainment.
Maybe it has disintegrated like mine size 9 tortoise shell knitting needles.Last month I got my knitting needle roll out of the cupboard,first time in about 15yrs ,opened it up to find a pr of so called tortoise shell needles just a pile of coloured dust & pieces .All the other needles in perfect order.
Hope you do find it though.
hugs Pam.
Good Luck
Treat yourself to a new pair of needles - Sorry!
If my <2 mm hook or my 5 mm needle turn up at your place, let me know please..
I cannot remember the size of the hook as that lounge chair has swallowed 2 crochet hooks and one knitting needle, but only given up ONE crochet hook. The first one went missing over 8 years and three house moves ago. [And I checked the removal van each time!]
However, I have enjoyed many of your designs that were on that site then, especially the purses that were about 5x4 like the cat and dog.
I think you have a site that your designs are on but I do not know where. Could you let me know. Thank you, einon
