What you need to know

Organise your crochet hooks and knitting needles with this knitting and crochet pattern from Susie Johns

This pretty pair of storage cases use vintage-inspired colourways to great effect. The muted tones of teal and beige combine well with the brighter red and purple on both the stripy crochet case and more detailed knit kit. Curtain tape is really useful for keeping your hooks or needles in place, without having to make individual loops – just stitch it down the centre on top of your lining fabric.
