Day 7 - Materials

This was was a hard one for me.  I don't sew, except to repair holes.  And really little ones at that.

And I just did tools a few days ago.  And I just did a big picture of yarn. Sooooo...???

So I kept trolling the Flickr Group for some ideas. I also checked out Kelly's blog, hoping she'd figure it out for me.

I give up.

Here are a lot of materials I use to knit (and crochet).  We're engineers, really.

From upper right: 1) my carrier for all a lot some of my needles; 2) Small scissors I use most of the time; 3) a nail file for when my nails catch on my yarn; 4) fancy pretty scissors a friend gave me; 5) a DPN - not just for knitting, but for fixing and catching; 6) cool Lantern Moon strawberry stitch holders; 7) flexible tape measure; 8) crochet hook - it's about 20 years old, that one; 9) needle gauge; 10) tapestry needles; 11) yarn cozies; 12) safety pins.

And, at the top, a trivel I bought while in Vancouver.  Completely unrelated to knitting, but I like it.
