knitting hamper help please

Options
Hi all I am in need of a few tips for a knitting hamper for a friend. I know to get the usual, couple balls of wool needles etc but just wondering what else I could get. I was looking for a free pattern for a bag to hold all the bits.
Would anyone have any ideas on a bag that could be used for a wool holder. Thanks and look forward to all suggestions

    I would add a tape measure a needle gauge and one of those big clips for holding knitting off the needle, sorry don't know what they are called and perhaps some sewing up needles. I suppose it depends on how long she has been knitting, she may have all she needs.
