Knitting Essentials............

I love these plastic compartment cases. The lid to my old one finally broke, so away I went to the fishing/tackle section of Kmart.


I found these for $4.13. You can place the dividers anywhere you want to accomodate different lengths of your supplies. I decided to put all my double pointed needles in here so that they'd be easier to find when I need them.

Now I really must start a new project. I just mailed the last of the socks off (120 total!!) and am still waiting on yarn to complete the design proposal that is half way done. Why is it when you desperately need the yarn, it gets lost in the mail? What is that about? So, I emailed the company and said that I'd call them once I checked my mail box one more time. Of course the yarn wasn't there, so I called from my car and explained everything to the very nice lady who told me that she'd immediately mail out a new order. When I got home and checked my email, there was yet another note from yet a different person at this company who said she just mailed me out a new order.

That adds up to 3 orders of the same thing if my math is right! Oh dear, guess I'll just have to let it play out and see what happens. With my luck, they'll all get lost in the mail!

Think I'll go start a hat.............

Isn't that always what happens?! I like your plastic container.

Waiting is torture! I do love brick-and-mortar stores for the instant gratification!
