Last Christmas, I decided to make up some polymer clay covered crochet hooks as gifts for my nieces, to accompany the Magic Yarn Balls I also made up for them. It's a fairly simple and fun project I'd thought I'd share with you today.
For a long time I only ever used the small metal handled crochet hooks you see in these pictures here. I never had any problems with using these and though I would occasionally treat myself to a bamboo hook, I was very happy using these for a long time. Then I started to crochet professionally and a lot, this was when I started to realise the advantages of having a bit more handle to hold on to. I wrapped hairbands around the handles for a while, then I figured I have a lot of polymer clay in my possession, why not have a go at making some more permanent, more attractive handles.
These ones are even glow in the dark!
I'm offering someone the chance to win their own set of supplies to make up some crochet hook handles of their own over here.
However anyone can make these with just a few crafty supplies, so if you would like to have a go keep reading.
