How lucky are we!
These wooden boxes are so beautiful!

They were fulled with old knitting needles and some crochet hooks.

There's more! There were two hairpin lace loom. When I first learned to crochet my aunt taught me how to do hairpin lace. She gave me her looms and they are older than these. I hope I can find them. I want to teach my daughters to use them.

We also got this vintage knitting needle case.

So cool!

Those are beautiful needle boxes!
How lovely! Isn't it nice with such vintage things?
Hope you'll have a great week end!
That's totally cool... there's something awe inspiring about thinking who used those needles before you and what did they make? What a gift!
