When a friend is sick or recovering from surgery, we do a get-well card "blitz" - sending 4 cards one day, then 3, etc. - instead of flowers. They don't require watering and last much longer!
I had to make a latch-hook rug for art in high school. Those look like the same kind of "needles, " but what's beneath doesn't seem to have loops so I'm wondering what that setup does.
Love the puzzle.
Wishing you a crafty day.
I think the wooden-handled items are thread pullers. I have one in my sewing kit - it was my aunt's puller from a long time ago. They don't make them the same any more.

They look like punch needles to me. You thread the colorfill thread into the needle and then punch it through the cloth, withdrawing it leaving a loop on the right side of the picture. When finished, you turn the picture over and it is very pretty made of small loops of brightly colored thread..

You mean the implement for opening up seams?

That's exactly what I mean - should have called it a seam ripper and avoided confusion, but I simply couldn't think of the name at the time.
God bless you all.
