I mainly crochet at my desk. I keep all my stitch markers (also known as bobby pins), needles (about 4 different types/sizes) and various other smaller items I might need to crochet in a teacup. It provides easy access and I can move it a round to fit my needs.
My go to needle for crochet is a blunt tapestry needle or darning needle, whichever name you prefer (Is there a difference?).
I try to be diligent about putting it back into the teacup, even though I know I will need it in less than a minute but somehow I have lost 2 of those suckers. Today, I am down to my last one and sadly, it's different than the last one I used. My new one is shorter and when sewing up amigurumi it's a little bit of a pain since I tend to hide my yarn ends through various spots; sometimes going directly through the object.
Anyone else experience the 'case of the missing needles?'
Needles-s (har har) to say this weekend I will be picking up a package..maybe even 2....Back to crocheting.
Happy Creating!! ~Amanda
