One of the other mom's at Camporee was making this gorgeous sock, when she reached the heel and realized she had forgotten her 5th double point needle at home. Did she give up? No! In true Extreme Knitting prowess she improvised a 5th needle from the quill of a found bird feather to hold her heel stitches! How cool is this?! There must be a Try-it or Patch for Improvised Knitting in Girl Scout lore.
