Hooks, yarn needles, and stitch markers are all common tools of the trade, but are there any other things you use with your crochet that might not be so common?
I have a thimble in my sewing box, that I bought specifically for my left ring finger. I also have darning needles, embroidery needles, and embroidery thread in an assortment of colors! And, my crochet supply tote is actually a scrap booking tote. Heh. It’s in cute colors, and it was on sale!

There are several things in life that get me all excited, and electronics is one of them. So today was a good day in respects to this; I finally have a wireless mouse, and guess what color it is! Black and dark pink, of course! I also bought my card reader - not as multi-faceted as my old one (it read 25 cards, I think; my new one only reads 5 main ones), but it seems to be a much better quality, and I’m making sure that I keep track of the warranty on it as well. Fa sho!
I also managed to go to Michaels without buying ANYTHING yarn/crochet related. I bought frame hanging supplies, candles/river rock for some holders I already had, and a pink photo box to store some loose photos in (once our book cases arrive and we start sorting through our boxes again, I don’t know how many photos I’ll find…).
I’m about to continue on adding to the coffee cozies I need to fix, all 10 of them. I don’t even have enough pink/white ombre yarn left, since it’s the one I used the most of. Luckily, it’s fairly cheap (at $1.50 or something at Walmart), so I may go pick some up tonight with whatever spare change I have lying around. So that’ll be my project for tonight, I think - I stayed up until about 1 in the morning today fiddling with plugins and stuff for this blog; I think I need to spend some quality time on these silly cozies, if I hope to have them sent out to the respective recipient within the next year! …just kidding…?
Ugh. But I am in need of going through my categories+streamlining them, and tagging all my blog posts more effectively. Grr.
