Knitting Corner
The mess behind the table (i.e. the computer room), has finally been organized. Sadly an old vacuum cleaner was sacrificed in the process (at least it lasted for over 15 years before cacking). At least there is now more visible floor space.
First off, all my books are now neatly awaiting perusal on a shelf (which is just a basic book shelf whose lower levels house the kids' numerous board games and puzzles).

Booklets and Books
It's not a huge collection, but it is a good one. I've tried to purchase those items that I would find most useful. Sometimes I don't make great choices and other times I score a winning collection of patterns. Sometimes my needs as a knitter have changed so much that what I thought was good isn't currently a necessity. But books are loved in our house, so on the shelf they wait (I haven't shown you the other bookshevles in the computer room and never mind the other three in the living room. Have we got books!)
Binder and Magazines
I'm still lacking a stitch dictionary. I think that should be part of any knitting library (although I do have a crochet stitch dictionary that my mom sent me--the last of her crafting stuff). Hopefully I'll have that rectified by the end of the month (eagerly awaiting the arrival of a book order).
To the right of the large shelving unit are two plastic drawer units. One holds scrapbooking tools. The other now holds my knitting tools: all my needles including my new Boye collection, my hooks and small yarn collections (mostly sock yarn and a few ribbon yarns).

So how do you organize your crafting stuff?
