Since I've retired, I've been able to do it more and more often, have a lot of fun and have time to sit down at my sewing machine. The ideas are there and just need to be implemented. So does this beautiful piece. It's a useful utensil for double pointed needles, crochet hooks, cable needles, pins, detachable eyeglass temples, etc. I saw the fabric in a magazine and ordered it straight away, I couldn't resist. It's also a wonderful piece for children, put a few pens in and you've got a gift for a birthday or Christmas. I have incorporated a strip of fabric into this utensil so that things cannot slip out. You can roll it up and take it with you anywhere. It is 37.5 cm by 23.5 cm in size. There are 13 compartments from 2.5 to 3.5 cm wide. It is lined with a cotton fleece and can of course also be washed at 40 degrees.
