Crochet Hook Case

My friend, an avid crocheter, requested a crochet case for her various hooks.  A case would help her organize her hooks and make it easier to transport them in her backpack.  She picked out the colors, and I created her crochet hook case.

To make this case, my friend chose the electric blue, tranquil teal, and penguin duct tape.  To create the base of the case, I alternated between the electric blue and the penguin duct tape.

The case needed to be able to store two basic types of crochet needles: a Tunisian crochet hook and many regular length hooks.  I stored the longer Tunisian hook along the edge of the case and lined up the other regular hooks below and perpendicular to the Tunisian hook.  To keep the hooks in the case, I used tranquil teal duct tape.

The Tunisian hook lies along the top; three regular hooks are below
A pocket lies on the other side of the case and can be used to store design patterns, short pieces of yarn from crochet creations, and other necessary items.  I used the tranquil teal duct tape again.  The crochet hook case itself is an entire pocket also. I folded the big sheet of duct tape in fourths and taped the edges to create a big pocket for scissors in between the inside and the outside of the case.

This crochet hook case will serve my friend well; it will keep all of her hooks organized, clean, and all in the same spot.
