[Crochet] Making Crochet Hooks

[Copy link]
Post time 2018-6-1 06:31 | Show all posts |Read mode
Hello all, How are we today?

I have seen some lovely crochet hooks pop up around that have like a clay molded bottom or something like that? Does anyone know how to make these? I would love to make myself and perhaps my grandmother some too but I have absolutely no idea how to do them.

Do you know how to do them? Would you mind walking me through how to make them, or point me in the right direction to look for what I might need etc?

Thanks so much in advance!

I love making handles from polymer clay, you can make them any size and shape you like. I also found Youtube to be the greatest help in step by step instructions :)

I use polymere clay to make nice handles for my aluminium hooks.  Just have a look on you tube,theres a few great tutorials showing you step by step what to do!  Its very addictive, i even made my pens nice handles now.

FIMO or polymore clay I think is used to make the handles, its molded into a design and then baked. after which its ready to  use, and  totally unique :D

yes.. i use fimo/clay that you harden in the oven too for my susan bates hooks. Makes them so much more comfortable to hold. Here some i made really quickly in a couple of minutes.
