My gosh, Adrian, where did you get all that cute stuff in the picture? The gauge measuring tool is from Karatstix on Etsy. It’s part of an awesome set I got ages ago that includes a needle sizer. I love it so much! The teensy scissors are from Fancy Tiger Crafts. They’re not exactly the most functional scissors, due to their size, but they can snip yarn in style and fit into my tin of stitch markers perfectly.
