Trimming the bush of life…
KNITTING PRICKLY PROTECTION? I hear you ask my dear ladies and occasional gentleman, yes indeedy.
I needed some KNITTING NEEDLES to start a new project and was looking through my late mother’s collection when I came across these.
They hail from the 1960’s and are made out of COLOURED CASEIN a milk protein I believe.
Ideal for KNITTING something WARM and WILLY……….I mean WOOLY for the WINTER.
Yours Protectively
Celia

Coloured casein! Now I know what my aunt’s old knitting needles are made from.

My Dear Lady,
Interesting isn’t it. I always thought they might be Bakelite or early plastic.

Those were my thoughts too. And I am sure I would rather have a coloured casein plate than a melamine one. As a dairy country we should be mass producing casein products.

My Dear Lady, what a brilliant idea! Do you think we should go on Dragons Den.
I am sure my farming friends we be enthusiastic.
