[Nfb-krafters-korner] A Sunday Question

[Becky Frankeberger]

Hey this works for me, smile. On my desk I have a coffee cup with my crochet
hooks in. The tinier needles are in a cigar tube, along with a pair of
sissors. In a pretty  vase I have the fatter crochet hooks and some smaller
plastic ones I don't use any longer. In a taller jar I have my Tunisian
hooks and a couple pair of knitting needles I like. Oh and also in that tall
jar I have extra needles for my knitting machines in bags. In a pretty box I
have my circular crochet and knitting needles, with measuring tapes,
buttons, and closure spring things for the draw string bags I make, some
jingle type bells and any odds and ends, large eyed needles are in that box
in a medicine bottle.

Yarn is everywhere in few controlled places. I have bags of pink separated
into colors in that one pink family bag. I have a green family bag. A pure
snowy white family. Off white family bag. The rest are just everywhere on
shelves in bins, multiplying by the moment in corners.

Becky and her hand fed golden, ims da boss in dis household, toothy grin.
Love Jake

Here is a question, I have and I am a long time crafter that I think new
crafters would have. This is a crafting question to the list, let's help
each other with crafting replies and build knowledge of our craft. Simple
answers and replies but if needed explanations there please reply.

 

I want to my crafting tool box Saturday and it was totally full of all kinds
of things. I want to improve it and want real suggestion of what we should
keep it the main box and then other boxes for specific crafting. Like the
notion bag for yarn work. Like how many crochet hooks do we really need and
should they be in the main box or the crochet box. I will start and hope I
get real good suggestions to clean out the junk.

 

Main Tool Box

1.Pencil or Pen or marker and 3 by 5 index cards

2.Scissors, what kind, should I have scissors for every craft box like
material scissors for fabric and another for paper? Is this an important
item in regards to cost?

3.What kind of measuring tool? Tape, braille, ruler, all or separate in
different boxes. 

 

I want to be ready and organized to go as I need, but I am not and hope this
list might give me and other constructive ideas.
