    Your "donate" clothing find reminds me of a funny story. When I was first dating my boyfriend he took me to a spot he used to go fishing in high school. We found several trash bags of nice clothes and shoes that fit both me and my daughter, out by the bayou, dumped. We kept some and donated the rest. A few months later we were visiting an old friend of his and his wife noticed my shoes and said her oldest used to have some but outgrew them. We later realized that the bags we found were actually left there by her husband who was supposed to donate them but went fishing instead. We never have told them about finding it... maybe one of these days! 😆

    • @DianePahl
      @DianePahl 4 роки тому +14

      The straight needles are knitting needles, the needles that are attached by a wire are knitting needles also, to knit in the round - like for socks, etc. The Stone Pack looks like needlepoint. What you call fur is rug hooking yarn. The frames are needlepoint frames.

LOL and latch hook kits lol haven't seen those since the day shag rugs stopped selling (but are coming back) LOL When I moved I sold that much stuff at a garage sale and paid for all my gas to go 5 states and my rental deposit and first and last month rent and that was in 1999. Those things cost twice as much now and some are impossible to find.... this was a great haul

      Yes, or you can look them up online on Fire Mountain Gems to see if any of them are on their site, and see how much they might be worth. A jewelry maker (like me) would happily buy the whole storage box full and possibly do wire wrapping around them for pendants and rings, etc.

    Hi Kelly, wow that's a crafters dream! The hoops of all different sizes in the top plastic drawer are all for smaller cross stitch pieces (a good place for you to start, if you wanted to try cross stitching for yourself). They’d probably sell well as a bundle. Knitting needles are the completely straight ones, crochet needles have the hook at the top of them. The circular knitting needles are used to make things such as socks, hats, clothes. The small bits of wool (which were in the plastic drawers) are to make a "latch hook" picture (crafters also use these small bits of wool to make latch hook rugs) - this is what that little piece of clear plastic is for on top of those bits of wool - to make the latch hook picture. I'm thinking you could sell all those bagged up cross stitch kits separately - they take AGES to do & websites tend to sell them individually. Hope some of that helps you! :) x
