Day Six (Saturday April 27th): A Tool To Covet
Write about your favourite knitting or crochet (or spinning, etc) tool. It can either be a tool directly involved in your craft (knitting needles or crochet hook) or something that makes your craft more pleasurable – be it a special lamp, or stitch markers.
Is it an item that you would recommend to others, and if so for which applications/tasks do you think it is most suited. Conversely, do you have a tool/accessory that you regret buying? Why does it not work for you?
My favorite knitting, crochet, and spinning tool isn't directly involved with the fiber arts. It's something that helps me enjoy knitting a bit more, and it's something that I use everyday. My trusty iPhone 3g.
When I am knitting (or crafting) I almost always have my phone with me; headphones in, and a song I enjoy playing in my ears. I think that knitting while listening to music helps me get lost in knitting, and it makes me focus on the knitting rather then other distracting things (little brother, kids playing outside, food, ect.).
Luckily I have never bought a knitting tool that I regret buying! I am usually very careful when I buy knitting tools, so I haven't had the horrible experience of buying a poopy crafting tool. :)

Looks like that you have a comfy and cozy place to knit. How's the Owl coming along?
