http://www.tsa.gov/travelers/airtravel/assistant/editorial_1252.shtm= Transporting Knitting Needles & Needlepoint = Traveling with Special Items Knitting needles are permitted in your carry-on baggage or checked baggage. However, there is a possibility that the needles can be perceived as a possible weapon by one of our Security Officers. Our Security Officers have the authority to determine if an item could be used as a weapon and may not allow said item to pass through security. We recommend the following when bring knitting needles on an airplane: * Circular knitting needles are recommended to be less than 31 inches in total length * We recommend that the needles be made of bamboo or plastic (Not Metal) * Scissors must have blunt points * In case a Security Officer does not allow your knitting tools through security it is recommended that you carry a self addressed envelope so that you can mail your tools back to yourself as opposed to surrendering them at the security check point.

It depends on the country that you are flying to and fro. I know that the UK do not allow any sharp equipment whatsoever, so that includes needles. (BAA).The US have increased their security, so it may now depend on the airline, but usuallly, they allow minor things like that.From the TSA site:Traveling with Special ItemsKnitting needles are permitted in your carry-on baggage or checked baggage.Items needed to pursue a Needlepoint project are permitted in your carry-on baggage or checked baggage with the exception of circular thread cutters or any cutter with a blade contained inside which cannot go through the checkpoint and must go in your checked baggage.It might not be a bad idea to print out the page from TSA to let the security people know that you are allowed to have knitting needles.Other contributors have said:Per the TSA agent I just spoke with (9/20/09), plastic or bamboo knitting needles less than 31" long are permitted - just declare them to the screener as you pass through security.*Australian flights (to, from and internal) are notoriously strict about this, and you will most likely not be allowed needles of any kind.*Yes, I knit on flights all the time without issues. I tend not to use metal needles though.I would double-check with the airline as I've heard of knitters having their needles taken away. Most airlines list it on their website or you can call customer service. Best not to bring metal needles as I've also been allowed to bring on my bamboo needles in the past.Even if you are allowed to bring your knitting needles with you when your board the plane you may not be able to board with them on the return flight. I have flown internationally on the same airline and the "permitted items" on the return flight were different even though it was the same exact airline and the rules being applied were US Transportation Security Administration rules.In the US, yes. However, anything is always subject to the screener's discretion. In other countries you need to check with the airline or the airport. Many European countries do not allow knitting needles through security.As a general rule, yes. It is recommended, though, that the needles be woodenI have heard of people having no problem with knitting needles when they headed out of the country--but upon attempting to leave the other country, were denied having the knitting needles--even though they were traveling the same airline.YES. I have carried my knitting with me on a plane several times.

However, I took stub-nosed children's scissors to snip my ends and to avoid having my embroidery scissors confiscated.

When knitting with circular needles how do you twist a stich when knitting in the same direction?
Since most knitting is done by using a pattern, you need to follow the directions you are given. Most patterns will tell you to knit around, or back and forth, depending on the end result desired. If you want a sleeve that is already round (with no seams), you knit around and around. If you want a flat finished piece to sew into a seam, or use flat (such as a placemat)go back and forth.
