I'm making Trader Joe's frozen Spanakopita for a picnicI can have it oven ready when I leave, but I need to keep it warm during the hour drive over to the picnic siteIs there a simple way to do that WITHOUT buying something that keeps it warm?Thanks!
Line the pan with aluminum foil and coverWrap the outside in aluminum foilshould be okay.
You need to remember that these wooden needles are coated with a finish so are not really wood in reactionEveryone has preferences as to what they like or don't likeYou need to try them yourselfBut you also know that not one needle works in all situations with all fibresSome are slick and you need a stickier needleSome yarns need a really smooth needleSo if you are expecting these to be the only ones you will ever use, you know from experience that is not possibleThe best advice I can give you is that you should go down to your LYS and try out all the different kinds of needlesIf the LYS won't let you do that, try those of your friendsAfter you have worked with each different kind, then you will know what they feel likeKnitpicks will let you buy only one pair of needlesThat may be the best alternative if you are worried about costI think they will accept a return if you are not satisfiedBut a single set does not cost that muchYou can try them out with all kinds of yarns to see how they behaveIn the end, it all depends on your own personal likes and dislikesThat is why we have all these different needles!! They all don't do the same kind of work, in the same way that your husband doesn't have only one hammer or one saw or one screwdriver.
