I have, in my possession, at this moment:

- A large plastic crochet hook about 11 mm in diameter, which I think is a size O or P, unlabeled
- An H hook, aluminum, in the style that I like
- H, I, and J hooks, matching, aluminum, in the style that I can't stand
- 5 G hooks, aluminum, only one of which is in the style that I like
- A J hook, bamboo
- A D hook, steel
- An N hook, in the style that I like
- An afghan hook, same diameter as a size 8 knitting needle, which would make it, what, another H?

I found all of these because I wanted the N hook and have been tearing through my crafting stuff looking for it. I note a disturbing absence of the F and E hooks, or my one thread hook. I also don't know why I have this many G hooks, since I use the H and J hooks a lot more.

Clearly I need to make myself a hook organizer of some sort. Failing that, I need a plastic tube to keep them all in in their current disorganized state.

I'd worry that my knitting needles were in the same state, but most of them currently have WIPs on them, and most of the ones that don't are in the same bag the afghan hook was in.

We missed you today. There was conversation I wish you had been there for - much discussion of chants.
I'll try to fill you in this week.

Dang. And of course it's the one meeting I miss. :-( And I won't make it to PATHS, either, if it's this week - that's Open House at school. In fact, catching me this week is going to be a bit of a trick - dance class on Monday, Open House Tuesday, church possibly on Wednesday, Movie Night Thursday, and AK's birthday party on Friday - but give me a call anyway.

I'm hoping you won't mind a plug for a favorite Etsy vender...

Granny's Closet needle rolls are something fantastic. I have a sock monkey print circular one; and another sock monkey print DPN one. She also makes crochet hook rolls, but you can use a DPN roll just as well.

She's also pretty cool about doing custom stuff. If you see a fabric she has, she can more than likely make it into a needle holder of your choosing.

I've been happy with her stuff; maybe she has something that strikes your fancy or ignites some creativity.
