This interchangeable set of needles is like no other. With specially designed needle heads, your cords are able to twist with your tension as you work your piece, eliminating the need to constantly be retightening your needle heads!

I use it to hold all of my small needle notions (turn keys and size adjusters) all in one place! Each side of the organize can be used to store Small/Large notions (I use Chiagoo Needles and Mindful Collection Needles) in an easy to locate way! I can't recommend this little case enough! I even use my Dymo Label Maker to label each box with the size/length of cord!
19. The Soul of an Octopus by Sy Montgomery
I happened upon this book in the middle of a bookstore. It was listed under a small display of Oprah's book club. As someone fascinated with the octopus in general, I jumped at the chance to read this first hand account of working with this amazing creature. This book is moving, profound, and questions the delicacy and temporary nature of our existence. I highly recommend this book to anyone who longs to feel part of something much larger and learn something along the way. Grab your copy here.
