Small scissors are essential for any traveling crafter, and these little Yarn Snips have all the right features: they're forged from a single piece of steel so they won't break, they're slim, don’t require you to unfold or get your fingers through openings, and (best yet) they're TSA approved because the blades are less than 3" long. Included is a little leather cover to protect your project pouch from the pointy ends.
Traveling WIPs can get jostled around in their project bags, leaving stitches in danger of popping off the needles. Worry no more! These soft yet sturdy Stitch Stoppers slide down onto your knitting needles and keep your stitches secure.

Plus, they can sharpen a note-taking pencil in a pinch!
Wherever you're traveling, keep your knits looking their best with the Fuzz Off Comb. The unique blade design is more gentle and efficient than standard depill tools and can also be used to neaten up wool trousers, workout clothes, and more. The biodegradable PLA cover folds over the comb to protect it, making it sleek and compact for travel.
This compact case unrolls to reveal four separate compartments for easy organization. Each compartment is attached at the back by snaps, so you can take the whole roll with you or unsnap and take just what you need. It's made of washable kraft paper fabric, so you can remove the elastic closures and toss the whole thing in the washing machine.
It can hold all the tools listed above, as well as lots of other tools like our Stitch Markers, Needle Gauge, Bamboo Cable Needles, and more.
This standing accordion pouch is small enough to throw into your project bag, but big enough to fit everything you'll need. With 11 pockets and 3 removable tabbed folders, it expands to hold and organize all the tools and notions for your current project, and stands upright when expanded for easy access. Made of washable kraft paper fabric, the top flap extends over the pockets and is secured with a waxed cotton cord that winds around an all-natural corozo button.
Knitting usually requires tiny tools like stitch markers and tapestry needles, and boy do those little things love to get lost. The magnetic face of the Maker's Keep clings onto small tools with metal components, so you don't have to worry about dropping them under an airplane seat or down the side of a car door. The slap bracelet style band can be worn or used flat and has a 4 inch / 10 cm ruler on the underside.
These flexible silicone clips are a simple way to keep all sorts of items where you need them. They have magnets embedded at each end to cling to themselves or a metal surface. Though one is shown here tidily holding a Leather Cord & Needle Kit, the number of uses is truly endless - check out Our Favorite Ways to Use the Magnetic Maker’s Clip for a few ideas.
The Natural Mesh Bag protects your yarn cakes from getting mussed and tangled by preventing them from loosely rolling around inside your project bag. It's woven from strong yet lightweight washable paper fabric, and has snaps at the top that can be configured to separate individual strands of yarn from multiple cakes.
With the Maker's Board, reading a pattern or chart has never been easier, no matter where you are! The included strong magnets stick to the internal metal sheets to pin up your papers, as well as holding onto small metal tools like Stitch Markers, a Tapestry Needle, Yarn Snips, and more. The whole things folds down flat to slide easily into a bag or backpack, and it fits perfectly inside the Project Portfolio for added convenience. And, you guessed it: the kraft paper fabric is machine washable.
This slim and stylish portfolio was inspired by Japanese travel journals; the roomy internal pockets can hold your printed pages, worksheet, pencil, cell phone, tablet, and more! The internal elastic band can slide into and hold a pattern book, notebook, magazine, and even your Maker's Board. It keeps everything neat and protected from wear and tear, and the kraft paper fabric is machine washable. Secure the whole thing closed with the outer elastic band.
This flat-bottomed tote is a carry-all workhorse. It has twelve(!!) pockets to store all your bits and bobs, and a spacious interior to hold your project (and then some). It's made from machine-washable kraft paper fabric, so the sides are sturdy enough to stand on their own but soft enough to be flattened and packed away if needed. Add on a Leather Handle Kit (short) for ultimate grab-and-go convenience.
Fill it up with all the tools above and more (including the small Kraft Bin and Four Corner Bag + Leather Handle Kit (long) shown here).
