The handle is strong, the walls are smooth so that if you do use it for yarn and knitting related tools, you don't have to worry about snags. I'll be buying more!! Donna
It is my dream to help crafts women in Africa through the use of commerce of their goods. I love the hand work and it touches a part of me. I admire what you are doing. Vanessa
