I will look for this Nashua tape. I think I bought something like that years ago - and have no idea where it might be now.

The coil wraps are good for both straight and double-pointed needles. The tubes are my favorites for double-pointed needles. I mark the size on the tube. The tube expands for different length needles. I can store several sets of needles in one tube for the smaller sizes.

How about ponytail elastics?

I've had those dry up and not have any elasticity left. The kind of fabric ones aren't as stretchy and stretch out, too. I use them almost daily. At least that has been my experience.

I'd go with Coban, that stretchy sports type tape you see that only sticks to itself

I had to look it up. I know it as Pet Wrap. My daughter and I have used it for various things. We were able to get it in purple (our favorite color), but I found that it had a tendency to stain. When I looked at the 3M site I noticed "Caution: This Product May Contain Natural Rubber Latex" I don't think it was made for long term storage. It seems like I had some in the closet for a couple of years, and had to throw it away, as it wouldn't work like it did when it was new.

I "tie" my knitting needles together using plastic/paper covered wire ties (bread ties). Needles have been stored for many years (going on decades) and have never had a problem with rusting, leaving residue or any other problem. Since you twist them around the pair of needles, twist ties can accommodate any sizes from the very thin 0000 needles to broomstick (twist 2 or more ties together to go around these) sized needles. I keep my needles in an "old" Tupperware Celery Keeper container. Works well for me.

Mine are tied with yarn (aka unfinished knitting projects) - this seems to hold them together for years! I just have to remember which project needed which size and which bag the project is in, and ta da there the needles are!

selm, I like the tube idea for my DPN'S. Thank You, I am going to look into buying some.

I've used plain ol' electrical tape or tommy tape (miracle tape) https://www.tommytape.com/miracle-wrap/
No residue, and made to last for years
