I have a small box (like a pencil box) that I keep all my ‘needed extras’ in. Measuring tape, stitch holders, cable needle, scissors, pen, pencil, stitch markers, more things (that I probably don’t really need). That way, when I move spaces, or pick up a different project I grab the box and all those extra things are right there.
I am in the USA and we have moth problems too. I use cedar chips (they sell little hearts and shapes of cedar wood) in my yarn containers and also plastic bins with lids and huge Ziploc bags. I have a fear of moths, after finding a couple in my yarn. I also know that lavender also keeps the moths away. They don't like the smell. I think it is a great Idea to keep the yarn label too. Especially, to see how to wash the garment you make from that yarn.
Oh noo you found some, too? Yeah I had everything in plastic ziploc bags until I got my yarn closet and now they‘re in there amongst many cedar wood balls and cubes and get sprayed with lavender scent twice a week. And I‘m glad you enjoyed my tips! 💕
What a great idea to have a project box instead of a project bag! It seems so much more structurally sound, and also tough boxes (metal, plastic, or cardboard) seem much more readily available in our daily life than tough fabric bags.
Hm, are we perhaps knitting-related? I do all of this exactly the same way… very funny. But, honestly - it’s a very good system you apply there. Keep going this way. Alles Gute! 👋😁🍀
My hack is knitting two sleeves at the same time with the magic loop method. Then there is no sleeve island and both sleeves are identical.

Moths can get into boxes as well.

right? I also think they look way more tidy than bags and pouches

Excellent video!
Thanks so much for these tips
you‘re absolutely welcome! ☺️
For the ribbing I knit inside out or in the wrong direction because the ribbing looks better in the insides 😅
That‘s so smart! I‘ve noticed this as well, it really does look better on the inside 😄
Knitting both sleeves at the same time ensures they are exactly the same
👍
Do the same with the needles!😂
hahha ain‘t nobody got patience to stick the pin in twice 😂
@@Crafty-Chiara no exactly 🤣
Moths are the fear of my life, i feel the pain! Fortunately I have been safe thus far
