Hello friends, and a very happy Wednesday to each and every one of you!
This week, the item is something passed down to me from my mother. She used this item in the 1960′s.
Have a guess? Please leave it as a comment for us. We will post your guesses and the answer of the picture puzzle this Friday.

Nice post. Thank you for sharing…………..
is it a crochet or knitting needle that the wool goes through?
I’m going with a punch embroidery needle.
