Here is how I organize my knitting needles and crochet hooks... I have 3 of these one for normal knitting needles, one for crochet hooks and this one for 4 X double pointed knitting needles.
Once I rolled the 'pocket' together (see start of roll on right side of pic) then I have two lengths of material to tie it all together. Nice, organize and easy to store.
These can be bought but are not necessarily the size I need and they can be quite expensive.
Bought some material way back for 1$. 4 nice pieces of about a meter square each. Nice and thick and sturdy perfect for this and many things.
So, I folded and the material on the wrong side, went all the way around except for a small hole to be able to turn material inside out... then folded the material in 3 (can be more or less depending on sizes of needles, or hooks) then I sewed the one fold into little pockets. I think on this one I made it 1 1/2 inch pockets. One at beg, I always leave bigger to store other objects like in this case round needles.
Hint: on tope left of the pic, there is a ruler wich is also a gauge. I have the same one in both of my needles holders and then am able to use the same gauge all the time. I also keep another one (same) close to my knitting and use it all the time. Did you know that not all needles are created equal depending on the manufacturer. That is one I always use the same gauge ruler.
