I am interested in hand knit traditional ganseys. They were beautiful and extraordinarily functional garments. Here is my research journal and thoughts on related historical issues

Needle Case for Steel Needles - Advanced Technology
The flexible plastic risers used for irragation systems make good needle cases for steel needles as they are ligher and can be screwed together to accomodate any length of needls. Again the screw caps are protected with wads of waste yarn.
Aaron, I am also a traditional knitter, I'd love to correspond with you and talk gansey knitting. I'm working my current project on 16" needles size 00, 10 sts per inch. I make all my own needles and am interested in making a sheath and working with it -

Great idea, Aaron!! Thanks! I've tried to come up with various storage devices for my double points, and yours is great!
