Question

as carry on luggage on an airline

Answer 1

Yes, you can take scissors with blades under 4 inches in length. Also, I believe (according to the website listed in the sources) that you should be able to bring a needle, but it is at the discretion of the security people.

I recently traveled with knitting needles (though I know it's nowhere near the same thing).
