The Essentials

I have been thinking about this allot lately. I have so many things that I need to make these items that my friends and family are so familiar with. I need my needles, yarn, and a pair of scissors and really that would be it. But what happens when I drop a stitch? What happens when I need to keep track of my rows or rounds or stitches? What happens when I need to hold some stitches? These are my essentials.
1. Scissors
2. Crochet Hook
3.Stitch markers
4. Tape measure
5. iPod- you will want music, audiobooks, tv shows, and movies
6.Palm Pilot- the applications on one of these things will be a life saver.
7. Getting Started Knitting Socks by Ann Budd- I may be new to sock knitting, but this is an essential book with me now.
8. The Ultimate Knitting Book from Vogue Knitting- just got this ook for Christmas and LOVE IT!


Okay so those are my knittng essentials. Try these out and you will find that you can't knit without them.
