This nifty Crafting Buddy has 2 large pockets for measuring tapes and various other accessories, a pocket for a small pair of scissors, a Needle Holder for a variety of needles, and somewhere to hook your stitch markers. The main body of the case is worked using single crochets into the back loop only, which creates ridges, allowing you to keep pins or more needles in the centre section too. And then it all folds away into a neat little bundle for travel or storage.
A great gift for any of your crafty buddies!
