The Reveal: Craftaholics Handmade Gift Exchange

The other week I mentioned that I had taken part in the Craftaholics Handmade Gift Exchange. Well, after a long journey the gift I sent to my exchange partner has finally arrived in Washington state.

I discovered from her profile that she liked to crochet and I had some fabric that I thought might fit the bill so I decided that I would make her a crochet hook case

I’ve designed it with curved corners on the top edges that tuck in nicely when you roll it up

There are 7 small pockets for crochet hooks and 4 wide pockets for larger handled hooks, stitch holders and maybe even some double pointed needles

Thankfully my swap partner loves the case! Here’s what she had to say….

I received your gift! It’s beautiful and I love it! The fabric you chose is is just exactly in the style that I like (neutral with pop of color). Crocheting is one of my favorite wintertime hobbies. I have so many hooks of different sizes, and I have been crocheting since childhood, its actually strange to think that up until now I have never had a nice crochet hook organizer! 😀 I’m very happy with it, thank you!

I did a quick search to find out when I first pulled together the pattern and it seems that it was quite some time ago…I had intended on writing up a tutorial for the case but a rather large amount of time seems to have slipped by! Maybe now is the right time?
