Darning needle is first in there as I darn as a go when doing colour work. Light bulb stitch markers to keep track of rows, tape measure, crochet hooks to fix my mistakes, needle stoppers, cable needle, my little yarn cutter, extra cables for interchangeable needles, try on cord, and perhaps a couple Excedrine to ease the headache when I have to "knit backwards".

😂😂 Love the excedrine. Happy knitting with no going backwards 🧶
Yes❣️❣️ Except for the eye drops 🤓 I have a weird thing about eye drops...I hate them 😬

Another lovely episode. You’ve been super busy. I was very busy fan-girling over you and your knitting companions - I wouldn’t have got much knitting done either. Fabulous notions nook - I’d have to have darning and regular needles, stitch markers, progress keepers, silicone cables, tape measure, chewing gum, and needle stoppers. Thanks for the fun episode and opportunity. Cheers!

Thanks for hanging out with me 💕 I'm back from Knit City and hoping things get a little quieter 🤓

Thank you for another great episode! ❤ If I had a notion nook, I would have stitch markers, stitch stoppers, scissors and darning needle 😅

So glad to hear all the repairs, alarms etc are done and hopefully you won't have to experience that headache again. Other than the things you mentioned for the notion box is an emory board and my fix it tool that can be for picking up dropped stitches, work as a cable needle etc. Love your Ranunculus. All three sock designs are gorgeous You outdid yourself with the 3 designs. Have a great time at Knit City, enjoy your musicals and time with family.

Thank you Sharon 😊 I had a great week. I need to get one of those fix it tools for my Nook! The Emory board is also a great idea 💡

My notions nook must have a removable stitch marker! Essential for holding a dropped stitch or marking where my progress is when matching row counts on sleeves or socks! 😊

The Notions box looks like a great one. I would put every little thing in there including little bits of paper I need when I write notes for myself and pin them to my knits. Since I never win, I expect to be ordering it in the future. Have a great time in Ontario!

I would pretty much have to put in stitch markers, a measuring tape, barber cord, snips, a darning needle, and the little beads I'm currently adding to a spring MKAL shawl that I am knitting. It would be perfect. That is so kind and generous of you.

Beads...yes!! I haven't done anything with beads in ages and I love the process. Happy knitting 🧶

Thx for your lovely gift-a-ways. If I could win the notions keeper I would store tiny scissors, darning needle, Light bulb markers, jump-ring stitch markers, small fix-it crochet hook, Small measure tape, small Emory board, stitch holders,and barber cords. Thanks to for all the info and enjoyment I get from your podcast. ❤️❤️

My must have in the Notion Nook would be pink cupcake needle stoppers. I’m a pink person so most things in the Nook would be a variation of pink.

Another fun episode! Of course I can't remember the name of those lacy socks, but they were gorgeous. That notion keeper is a great idea! Beats the ziplock I use when I travel. I would definitely keep stitch markers, light bulb markers, stitch stoppers, the little keys for my interchangeable needles, and a couple of tapestry needles.

Happy Mother's Day Nancy. In the notion nook, I need the tapestry needles in there with my row counter and tape measure, I think you covered all that. I hope you have a wonderful time at Knit City Toronto and looking forward to a full recap of all the shenanigans. More musicals! Thanks for sharing all the goodies, your socks are amazing.

Oh my Nancy!!! So many beautiful socks, and you still are casting on more😮I can’t wait to see them and meet you in person too. Have to say the second notebook is my favourite 🤪 I would add an Emory board to the notions case, the small travel size you usually get at hotels. Nothing worse then a nail snagging on yarn. Cheers, safe travels, and 💓

Yay....thank you❣️❣️ The 2nd one is my favourite as well 😉 An Emory board is a great addition to any knitting bag. I'll see you later this week 😎

Hi Nancy! Glad you had a sort of birthday. Better than none at all. I'm sure you'll make up for it during your stay in Ontario. I put the same items in my notion holders as you, but I would add a button and some spring loaded toggles. You know the ones that are on coats to cinch in the waist? I use those on the try-on tubing instead of tying the ends into a knot. Sometimes the knit releases and I don't like the surprise that can cause. The plastic toggles hold the ends securely. I also use them on the tips of my needles to hold the stitches in place. They're available in a variety of sizes so I can use them on all different sizes of needles with confidence that my stitches won't go wandering.

The toggles are genius Jacquie ❣️❣️ I will definitely be making up for a dodgy April.😂
