Circular needles are the problem children of the knitting world. No matter what you do, they end up in massive tangles with their mates.
It can get even more frustrating. The sizes aren't marked consistently and often rub off with use. To find the needle you want, you have to untangle the whole mess and put each needle through a sizer to figure out its size.
Nancy Shroyer has come up with handy little plastic devices to speed the untangling. They're called Circular Needle ID Tags, and I review them this week.
