Emergency Crochet Hook: Because who needs to have remembered to have put one in the knitting bag before heading out for a week in the north woods when one has a sharp sturdy knife and a strong, finely grained and well seasoned stick?

(Because, really, you know you’re dying to start that Boknits pattern and you’ve GOT to have a stupid crochet hook to make your provisional cast-on and you’ll just absolutely DIE if you have to stare at the yarn you brought along for an entire week without being able to knit a single stitch.)
