I have mentioned before that my officemate J is a super fantastic crocheter. For example, a few weeks ago, she made me this gorgeous table runner for my birthday:
(isn’t it beautiful?!)
When she told me about some crochet hook cases she had seen online (and they were pretty expensive), I got excited and decided to make her one myself. I brought some fabrics into work so that she could choose something she liked. This is what I made:
The pattern is very slightly modified from this one by Kristin Roach at Craft Leftovers, which I also used to make my own crochet hook case back in September. It’s pretty straightforward, though I have to say, I am not yet as proficient as I wished in adding the bias binding! It usually takes me a few tries, especially around the curved corners, but in the end, I was happy with how it looked. It was really fun to give it to J 🙂
The runner and the case are beautiful! BTW happy graduation day tomorrow!!
that is beautiful. i’m jealous! (about both items).
Wowwie. The case came out great!
