the freak out, that is ....
so, i'm going on a trip. i don't know how much time i will have to knit. but, i live in mortal fear of not having choices or just the right project, or, being without my resources.
so, the freak out is beginning. what yarn(s)?! which needles?! which pattern(s)?!
do i play it safe and only take bamboo dpns? the TSA says knitting needles are "okay", but they haven't seen my needles! ... and then there's the magic-loopin' size zero's on a 32" cord! (strangling and stabbing needles !)

you should be fine with any needle, even if you go through London or Sydney. Still, I like the advice here which suggests hiding them in the spokes of an umbrella.
Just remember TSA does not govern other countries airports - you may be safest with bamboo. Check Knitters Review and Ravelry - both have travel forums where you can ask specifically about the airports you're flying through!
i know your anxiety so well. the thought of spending even an hour in an airplane without knitting makes me twitchy.
I'm ashamed to tell you how long its been since I've flown. : )
I do hope you have a great trip!
