Crochet is one of my favourite crafts and I have quite a collection of crochet hooks gathered over the years. Some were inherited from my grandma, some have been gifts, others I just seem to have acquired! Recently I’ve started asking my kids to give me lovely soft handled hooks for my birthday or Christmas. It makes it easy for them to get something they know I’ll love plus I end up with all the hooks I’ll ever need – win win!
My hooks need a safe place to be together when they are not in use so when I saw this lovely Ikat fabric with the same print in several colours I knew it would be perfect for a crochet hook case.
To make a case for your crochet hooks you’ll need:
Fabric Print A (mine is the orange here)
1 piece 36.5cm x 19cm – the main body of the case back
2 pieces 30cm x 11.5cm – the flap
1 piece 25cm x 13cm – the central pocket section
1 piece 8cm x 9cm – the little pocket
Fabric Print B (mine is the Teal here)
1 piece 36.5cm x 19cm – the main body of the case lining
2 pieces 8cm x 13cm – the side pockets
1 metre of matching ribbon
1 piece of Thin Wadding or fleece 36.5cm x 19cm
Matching sewing thread
Use a 1cm seam allowance throughout
Turn and press a small double hem on the top of the small pocket piece and topstitch.
Layer one of the side pockets with the small pocket, both right side up and the central pocket piece right side down as shown in the photo.
Stitch the layers together then attach the other side pocket to the other end. Press all the seams open.
Turn and press a small double hem all along the top and topstitch.
Lay this pocket piece onto the main body lining piece and pin the corners. Mark the main central pocket at 1inch intervals with pins.
