National Knitting Week 2006 (yes, 2006 - I'm a bit behind the times) Knitting needles 6.5cm (2.6 inches) in diameter and 3.5 meters long (11.4 feet). The yarn was a rope 12mm (0.47 inches) in diameter. And how about crochet with boat hooks or speed knitting (250 stitches in three minutes)?

I remember doing something called broomstick lace where you wrapped the yarn around a broom handle, but can't imagine why anyone would want to knit that way

(Brief lurker surfacing) Broomstick lace is nice in several different uses. Chapel length bridal veils/ lightweight sweaters out of decorative yarns/ neck scarves/ vests/ hose (lurker disappearing)
Thank you Bruce for giving me the opportunity to see this mirjam
the Loops are very interesting this way . mirjam
