£15 a pair! and you paid that!

Now, why would anyone pay £15 for a pair of needles. I often thought that wood needles were needles were needles, but not so. DH bought me a pair of Lantern Moon size 4mm for our Wood anniversary (He did need prompting, and i did get the usual 'but yoiu already have loads of needles'). They are now the only 4mm I use (unless I have to cast on more than 100dk.). Such needles, such smoothness you never thought possible. It all comes down to the 'cost per use' ethic. If you can get, say, 50p a use then its a good buy, anyting less is a bargin and anything more, well, it would have to be something special. So my needles are an absolute bargin. Now to collect the full set..........
