I had heard of using the tags/closures for bread packages to mark your projects while knitting or crocheting, but came upon another use for the little white tags while crocheting. I just started working on projects for Project Linus and usually have several projects going at the same time. I was using different size crochet needles and was switching back and forth on projects. I would forget what size needle I was using (I sometimes don't use what the pattern calls for because of the gauge). I decided to use the tags to mark the needle letter/number on them and attach to the project I am working on. That way I can start other projects using the same needle, but now I don't have to wonder was I using J or K, etc. It saves so much time instead of trying to figure out what needle you used.

Brilliant! Thank you for sharing. Much time will be saved.
I wish I had thought of this or seen this sooner. I also have a hard time remembering what hook to use, especially when I have to change hook to get the correct gauge. I'm making baby blankets, hats and sweaters for my new 2nd gr.
