Every once in a while I receive interesting stuff from Japan - I am very grateful!
The above photo shows from the left the Vogue Magazine: Keito Dama - a magazine I read in details.I dont understand Japanese though - but I read all the photos closely and love it.

2 books are both written by Akiyo Murono. The center book is: Knitting Lace. I helped her finding old patterns from old Danish books and some of them needed translation as the patterns were not charted.
The other book is full of nice small things such as mittens, scarves, a tie, a skirt etc. 
A few days ago I got a parcel from Clover. I were excited. It is always interesting to see what they have figured out. I love the crochet hooks. I immidiately casted my old crochet hooks aside. My new hooks are so colorful and good appealing, so that I felt like crocheting right away.
To the left are 2 circular stitch holders. I am not sure I will ever use them. Tell me if you know how to use them? In the center is elastic thread for ribbing.

My absolute favorite tool are the 2 needles. They look like knitting machine needles. You can easily slide the yarn in the opening and there you are - the needle is ready to use. I am absolute crazy about these needles and they immidiately found their way to my tool box.
The green (and purple) sheep are meant to sekure the double pointed needles when you are knitting socks. They are cute, so they were placed in my sock-knitting right away.
I have noticed that all these tools are available in the US, but if you want to buy them in Denmark - please ask you shop to order them from Villy Jensen, who can get them from Clover in Japan.
