Quick Crochet Hook Holder Free Pattern



Quick Crochet Hook Holder


Materials
5.5mm Crochet Hook
Worsted Weight Yarn

Stitches Used
ch- chain
dc- double crochet
sc- single crochet
sl st- slip stitch


Note: The starting chain length determines the length of the hook holder. To make a hook holder for more hooks, use a longer starting chain.

Pattern

Ch 28
R1: Dc in 4th ch from hook, dc across (25)
R2: Turn work, ch 3 (count as first dc now and throughout) dc across (25)
R3-5: Repeat Row 2
R6: Turn work, ch1, sc across
Finish off, Weave in ends

Optional Strap
Sl st on the end of the middle row, ch 30, sl st into each ch space
Sl st into base, ch 30, sl st into each ch space
Finish Off

Insert crochet hooks into the holder by weaving them in and out of the rows of double crochet.


Roll up the holder and tie with the straps or a piece of scrap yarn loosely around the holder to keep it from coming unrolled (optional)


You can also single crochet around the outside edge of the holder to give it a more completed look if you would like. :)

Please leave a comment telling me what you think of the pattern! :)

Have a great day!! 

Coming Soon: Quick Crochet Hook Holder

I have another free pattern for you all! It is a crochet hook holder. I had made a little pouch for my crochet hooks, but after reading some information I found out that it is not good for your crochet hooks to hit against each other. That is what mine were doing in the pouch I made so I came up with a solution! 




You simply weave your crochet hooks between the rows!


I did not make mine with a strap but there is an option for a strap in the pattern. It is a very very easy pattern. The pattern is worked in rows. I wanted this pattern to be easily adaptable and very customizable. I will try to put the pattern up today or tomorrow. :)

Have a great day everyone!!

Coming Soon: Another Pattern

Hello everyone!!

Yes, it is true. I am working on another amigurumi pattern! I didn't plan on making a pattern when I started making it. One thing led to another though and I decided to make a pattern for it. This is actually not like my other amigurumi patterns though. It is based of an actually animal. "Whooo?" you ask? Well, it asks "Whooo?" too!

I introduce to you Mister Multicolored Owl!

You will be able to make your own Mister or Misses Multicolored Owl very soon!! They are very quick projects. 

I am still in the process of writing the pattern. I am not sure the exact date it will be released, but be sure to keep an eye open for the pattern!

Please let me know what you think of Multicolored Owl in the comments :)

What are we going to do today Brain?

Unlike most teenagers I really don't like missing school. Why? Mainly due to all the make up work I will have when I get back. Unfortunately I am sick again today with a fever and sore throat.
Having said all that, I think I am going to work on my elephant. I'm not really sure how to link, but if I do I will put a link to the pattern I am using. I am crocheting it (this being a crochet blog and all). I started using a 5mm hook then switch to a 4.5mm. I know you shouldn't switch hooks mid project but I was/am being lazy.


Here is the website address for the pattern I am using: http://www.lionbrand.com/patterns/70582AD.html?iP=1&p=2&ss=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ravelry.com%2Fpatterns%2Flibrary%2Famigurumi-elephant-2
