Tomorrow is the Japanese festival of Hari-kuyo, which honors old needles. I've been collecting used needles in a little royal blue bottle for a year, getting ready to discard my tarnished needles on February 8, which is tomorrow. Get out your bend, broken, tarnished and rusty needles and tomorrow morning we will ceremoniously discard them together. Until then, you will enjoy Susan's needle book and her plans for making more. Here's a hint: follow all the links!
