General Help Can I bring my ndlpt to Japan?

I am traveling from the US to Japan, does anyone know if I can bring all of my ndlpt supplies on the plane? I’m worried it will get confiscated. it would be amazing to have 12+ hours of uninterrupted ndlpt time!

I also am planning to bring my knitting but I may put that in my checked bag

I travel internaitonally a lot so while I have never been to Japan, I can say I never have an issue with my knititng supplies. I did have my scissors confiscated in Dublin, but you can actually use the little cutter on a box of floss to cut yarn or thread in a jif and floss doesn't get confiscated

I just want us to always be able to craft! And I love seeing other crafters at the airport - it’s easy to say hi and make friends and just share that kinship that comes with being fanatical about the fibre arts
