Tuesday Tidbit… Crochet Storage!

February 4, 2014 By Beatrice Ryan Designs 11 Comments

How to stay organized when working on a multi-colored afghan… I place all my yarn in a shallow plastic tote, along with my scissors, hook and other needed amenities… As I make the squares for a Granny Afghan, I also keep them lined up in the tote…This method helps keep the yarn tidy, clean and easy access when I want to pull out my project! No more looking for my silly hook… And the bonus is… If I put it away for a long period of time… Everything is there when I am ready to crochet and no questioning what hook I was using!

Happy Hooking!!
