Knitting and flying -- PSA

So many many people out there ask about taking knitting needles on the plane. I have flow from Denver to San Diego and back, Denver to Vegas and back, Denver to Twin Falls, ID and back -- each time with knitting on board in my carry-on.

Here is the TSA link for rules on knitting needles in carry-on bags.

Notice the caveat about each agent having determination power.

Also remember that you can CHECK an entire suitcase full of knives if you like. So if you must have long metal needles for something, put them in a checked bag, and take a small project on bamboo circs for carry-on. Everyone needs more hats.
