When she told me she got her all-leather Wrist Ruler from ILoveHandles, I immediately ordered one upon my return. See, I KNEW that for this bracelet obsessed crocheter named Sue, it was a necessity. It's true, I love bracelets and am usually wearing 3 or 4 at a time.
And...since my philosophy is "have yarn, will travel" I go pretty much everywhere with my hook, yarn and supplies. I even carry a measuring tape in my purse every day. Guess what? Now I don't have to!!! I can just whip off the bracelet...
...and take a measurement. I figure I'll not only be super stylish, but I can measure gauge or check the size of a motif in a jiffy. Pretty terrific, huh?
I chose the medium brown one because I know that it will darken a bit after wearing, but they also come in black, dark brown and natural. I like mine so much I'm thinking I need to order the other colors.

I really like the ease with which you can put it on and take it off with one hand. The slit slides snuggly and securely over the stud closure, but comes off when you want it to with a gentle tug. You can easily figure out which size to order by measuring around your wrist twice. I measured a bit loosely, but think it fits perfectly with me just able to get a finger in between the ruler and my wrist.
My Wrist Ruler arrived in a pretty little storage tin. (Don't even ask about my "compulsive containerism" going wild here with ideas about how to use this little tin for bits and bobs.)
Even though they are made in small runs and individually numbered, I was happy with how quickly it arrived, too.

Bless you, Susan, for coining that phrase: compulsive containerism. I was starting to think there was something seriously wrong with me!! I had two boxes from recent purchases that were too large to store and finally flattened them to put in the recycling bin after a major pep talk (I really have enough cardboard!!) and some fortifying snacks... but I was still very, very sad to give them up. I have quite a number of little tins like that in my stash - I hope you share on the blog how you use this one so I can get some inspiration!!
