Description

The listing, Straight & Circular knitting needles Boye Bates Lion Brand has ended.

I have 20 sets of straight knitting needles:

1 set 14" aluminum size 6, Boye
2 sets 14" aluminum size 7, Boye
1 set 14" aluminum size 3, Susan Bates
1 set 14" aluminum size 10, Boye
1 set 14" aluminum size 5, Boye
1 set 14" aluminum size 4, Boye
1 set 14" aluminum size 8, Boye
1 set 14" vintage plastic size 10, Hero brand
1 set 10" plastic size 17, Red Heart
2 sets 10" aluminum size 10, Boye
1 set 10" aluminum size 11, Boye
1 set 10" bamboo size 10.0 mm, Boye
1 set 10" bamboo size 8.0 mm, Boye
1 set 10" plastic, no brand or size shown, but measures at size 10
1 set 10" aluminum size 4.0 mm-equivalent to US size 6, no brand
1 set 10" vintage plastic size 8, Boye
1 set 10" bamboo size 6.0 mm, Boye

There are 13 sets of circular needles:

1 set 28" acrylic size 5, from Hobby Lobby
1 set 30" aluminum size 7, Boye
2 sets 30" aluminum size 9, Boye
1 set 30" aluminum size 10 1/2, Boye
1 set 30" plastic size 15, Lion Brand
1 set 30" aluminum size 8, Boye
1 set 30" aluminum size 13, Boye
1 set 16" plastic size 5, no brand
1 set 33" aluminum size 6, no brand, bought from Mary Maxim
1 set 30" aluminum size 5, Boye
2 sets 29" bamboo size 8, Boye

All sets are used. The circular needle measurement were made tip to tip and allowed for some of the needles having a slight curve at the join. The needle sizes were measured with a Boye Knitting needle gauge. Be sure before starting any project to do a gauge swatch. The vintage plastic straights listed above are probably from the 50's. I used a cable needle made of the same material and it broke very easily. They would be neat for a display of vintage tools.

You choose shipping method. I will make sure they are well packaged. You won't be disappointed with this lot. Thanks for looking

Fanned and watching! I've bid really high on these. I'm just wondering if you would be willing to do free shipping if the credits get over a certain amount? Or maybe split the shipping? I want these soooooooooo bad, and I can promise you they would go to a good loving home if I win, lol.

I can tell you that the shipping shouldn't be too much...even shipping them Priority Mail. Shouldn't be more than $5 or $6.00. I just can't afford to do free shipping, my budget is just too tight, but I will find the least expensive way to ship them that I can do. It would cost more to split the shipping. I will sweeten the pot at my expense though, and include a knitting magazine that I have two copies of if that will help you any. BTW, I will be on vacation starting Sunday, so if you win this auction, get me your address ASAP and I will get these mailed before I leave. Happy Knitting!

Thank you for your wonderful reply to my earlier question. I very much still want these!!! my only question now is: how do you want the winner(hopefully me) to pay for shipping? I don't do Paypal, would postal money order, regular money order, cash, or something else be ok?
