[Nfb-krafters-korner] Friday's question what do you use to bringcraft items with you

[Dixie]

I can think of 2 items.  For larger projects, a 5 gallon plastic bucket with 
a liner that can be purchased at the hardware store.  The liner slips over , 
is cloth and has pockets and loops and such all the way around the side of 
the bucket.  It is meant for building projects...but, is also great for 
creative projects too!

I also have an Attaché case from Land's end.  It has 3 large pockets, 
zippers closed, it does have some of the dreaded Velcro on some of the 
pockets, but I keep my yarn and such in ziplock bags inside it in order not 
to stress the fibers.  The attaché has lots of thin pencil pockets, a couple 
little zipper pockets and a nice clip to attach keys or scissors to.

Hey pretty close subject line for a gal who just does not remember them,
lol.

The bags I use and prefer to take my crocheting in have a zippered closure.
Something to keep them closed if I tip them.
My needles, measuring tape, and scissors go in a makeup case, smile. I have
put Ziploc bags in my purse for small projects.    I get the bags at Transit
trade shows.  Some have pockets and some don't. My favorite one has a
shoulder strap and hand grip.  It has a large pocket in the front for girly
things, smile. Then you open the main compartment which has several pockets
and a divider.  I need it though to be one size larger for my mobile medium
sized projects.  Someday I should get very serious about finding one similar
but larger in size.

Someone just gave me a knitting needle bag.  It is jam packed with what
looks like every sized knitting needle from metal to wood.  Kevin wants to
sell it.  I just don't know yet what I want to do. It even has a needle for
broomstick lace, I think it is called.  I have not done broomstick in ages.
It is a very interesting and pretty look it gives to Afghans.

You are all going to laugh at me for this one, shy smile.  For large
projects I use a trash can.  The needle or needles are in a Ziplock bag
tucked on the side of the large project.  Any better ideas for large
projects, send them my way. Some large projects are on my dining room table.
More the ones I am piecing together.

Hey any ideas to help this gal?

Becky and dog guide Jake      who is the boss of my keeping on task, giggle.
