Browsing on Etsy, I saw an organiser for double pointed pins and thought I could easily make one. I made this one this afternoon in half an hour, which makes me think why didn’t I make it years ago. I made one ages ago to store all my crochet hooks and this is so similar. No more scrabbling around looking for matching dpns. :D

Both pretty and useful!


A knitting needle organiser is one of the few things I managed to break my machine out for when I was on my long sewing hiatus.

That's very useful.  It's something I've been intending to do forever to house my interchangeable needles.  They're in the plastic, zip up case they came in but the needles are attached to a piece of card with elastic and i have bought a couple of extra sizes which are separate.
Having seen yours I will resolve to get on with it.  There, I've said it now  :)
Life's too short for ironing.
