I always crochet while I am traveling across country. And I never forget what I need to productively kill time in the car. As a matter of fact you can read here what I take with me.

I am in a crochet group where many people have confessed to have taken hooks but forgotten the yarn, vice versa, or both while setting off on a trip, so I thought it would be interesting to compose a crochet emergency kit which will actually stay in the car, so as to make traveling more pleasurable. I am sure this will also be a great Christmas gift for your crochet friend. 

So, this is what I included. I took a simple, spacious food container (plastic box) and added a caddy (a small crate in this case) which I filled with sewing thread, measuring tape, scissors, and onto a crochet patch I attached stitch markers, a sewing and a tapestry needle.

 

Next I filled the box with yarn skeins and cakes, and slid different sizes of crochet hooks through a granny triangle to make the box complete.

   

The container had a transparent lid, so I painted it over and added my sticker. I played with photoshop here and added a funny crochet phrase: “4 U 2 DC”. And that’s it!

Do you also crochet while traveling? Do you have a kit and if so, what do (or would) you include?
