[Nfb-krafters-korner] Marking needle/hook sizes

[Henry Osborne]

Hi Tracy, I do like you do, I use a Pen Friend to label the original store 
packaging that the needles or hooks come in.
I hadn't thought of brailling the sizes onto the packages with a slate and 
stylus. this is a good back up to the Pen Friend label.
Thanks for this suggestion.

I'd be interested to hear other people's methods for marking needle or
crochet hook sizes.  Sorry if this has been covered 50 times before.

I try to keep my needles or hook in the package they came in, and use my
slate to braille on the package what size it is.

I have a needle/hook gauger, which I laboriously stuck small braille labels
onto.  It works well for the numerous things I inherited from my mother, or
things I failed to put back into a case.  But labelling the sizer was hard
work.  Are there any braille ones?  Maybe the right name is needle/hook
sizer.

Tracy
