Using this needlecase is a breeze. Just unzip it, and the accordion - style opening reveals the pockets for your circular needles. You can use the included blank stickers to mark each pocket as you like. When carrying it, simply grab the faux leather handle. To keep it in good condition, avoid getting it wet as the canvas and faux leather may be damaged. Wipe it gently with a dry cloth if it gets dirty. Store it in a dry place when not in use to prevent mold or mildew.
