    I found a nice basket that has a lid, handles and is about 14 inches wide and 12 inches deep.....99 cents at the thrift store....

    Ooh.... the knitting carrier! That might have to be a special treat to me someday...I have an open Shaker box my mother gave me about 30 years ago - it still looks as nice as when it was new. It sits on my chair side table to corral little things - pens, lip gloss, nail clippers, TV remote, etc.

    My minds eye is seeing fishing baskets like you see in pictures of people fly fishing for trout.

    Grandma Mary, I have been eyeing the purple and green toolbox at Jo-Ann. Glad to know it is so functional! Thanks for the review!
