Canada is once again permitting knitters to bring their projects on flights.

This week, Transport Canada removed four items from its list of things that are not permitted to be carried aboard an airplane: corkscrews (except for those with knives attached), knitting needles, sports racquets, such as those used for squash and tennis, and whips.

Whips. Right. A new slogan for TKGA:

Knitting needles: Certified as safe as whips by Canadian authorities!
