How to Make Knitting Needles

Get wooden dowels and cut off about 10 to 14″. 1/4″ thick are good. Sharpen the ends with a pencil sharpener. Get clay and make balls, and then place them on the end of the stick. Or, to make an acorn, get brown clay, roll a ball, and then stick it on the end of the dowel. Then stick an acorn cap over the ends. Put in the oven and bake for however long. Then seal with a spray on sealer to make the dowels smooth and shiny.
