From Pattern Description:
“Knitters tend to accumulate quite a few knitting needles. Non-knitters are always shocked to see just how many needles I have in my stash. What they don’t realize is that you often need different sizes and types of needles for a single pattern. The problem is keeping these needles stored, organized, and ready to take on the go. After all, you never know when you’ll be stuck in an extra-long line at the bank or post office and have time to dash off a few rows of your latest project. I love this carrier because it stores various sizes of needles and is easy to roll up and stash in your knitting bag before you walk out the door. This makes a great gift for any knitter, but don’t forget to make one for yourself!”
