    Default Found thimble keepers/crochet

    For those admiring the "old pin cushion", and those wondering how to make them....
    Did a search on Google for ' crochet pattern for thimble keeper'...got lots of sites. Found the little hat needle/thimble keeper at www.susansews.blogspot.com
    Patterns and pictures galore.
