What to buy for Crochet lovers?

Question

My wife is now in love with her new hobby of crochet. Besides yarns, hooks, and pattern books, what (accessories) can I buy her that would help her crochet? Be creative please!

Answer 1

it kind of boring but Joann's gift card is good.

More creative is a bag or tote to keep her projects in, especially if you have pets or kiddos.

They make specialty crochet hooks, kind of like artist made ones that are special or pretty. Ebay has some of those hooks for sale. discountyarnsale.com sells a set of hooks that light up.

Maybe even special crafting gloves for crafting and crocheting to help relieve strain.

It depends on what she likes but yarn is always good.

Answer 2

I would get her not only a gift card for a craft place..but some beautiful handcarved birch crocheting hooks...

these are my favorite.. and everytime I go to the "girls night out crochet circle" I get compliments on my hooks!

good luck with your decision!

Answer 3

I am a yarn and fabric nut. If I have yarn or fabric I will make something. I would go to a little quilt and yarn store(check the yellow pages) they have the best stuff. The set of good hooks someone else said is great.  But to me a good pair of scissors are the ultimate. Small stork ones are so cute. They can be bought at Joann's. Not all scissors are the same!!! Ginghers are almost are almost a status symbol, I guard mine with my life. I made a case that says, "Magic scissors, touch and you you die!". You can get little charms for the handle to personalize them. I am impressed with your thoughtfulness and your work to make your wife happy!!!!!!!

I hope you find that special something.

How about a big bag to keep all the stuff in?

I just went to Joann Fabric's yesterday, (I like to crochet too, and it's new for me as well), and they have these huge yarn balls!  They were called One pounders!  It was like 4 or 5 times bigger than the average yarn.  Go to a place like that and they should have plenty of other stuff to check out.

Answer 5

What about a great bag to tote her crocheting with her when you go places or a neat basket to hold her accessories in at home.  

If she is crocheting gifts you can order/buy labels that say Made by _________.  She could personalize whatever she is making for whomever she is crocheting for.

A personalized thimble.

Her favorite music to listen to while she is crocheting

Magnetic Needle Holders to hold her place between stopping and starting.   Could have them monogramed

A gift card to buy more supplies

Hope this helps!

Good luck!

She will love anything you get her to support her new hobby

Answer 6

A case to hold her hooks.  A complete set of hooks.  Walnut hooks.  Split ring or safety pin style stitch markers.  A row counter.  Measuring tape.  An MP3 player to listen to music while she crochets.  Folding scissors.  A natural sunlight lamp to work under.  A ball winder for her yarns.  And, yes, a project basket or tote to keep kids and cats out of it.
