I'm a 'pen holder' crocheter rather than a 'poker holder' so I prefer the longer slimmer style of hook, but it's fascinating to watch them being made, thank you
I also am making these.. My mom does what is called Crotchene workyou know like doilies, runners and table clothes its with a much smaller needle though.. So I buy the cheapo needles cut them in half and epoxy them into a turned handle..
Yup the smallest I have ever been able to do was 3.5mm which is still to big for that work. When I get request for the smaller ones I use exactly that trick. thanks for bringing that up.
Thanks for sharing. I tried one in the past and had trouble with the hook. Good to see how i can improve upon it. Made mine from padauk. I'll be trying again in the future!
I just made one the other day! LOL! No where near as nice as this though. I made mine from maple. ... Now I want to make a nicer one. hahahaha Great job! Thanks for sharing. Cheers!
You're husband material! if you're not married you should be! Do you have a website where I can purchase one of your hooks? I crochet and currently addicted to that style of hook, others on the market are ridiculously over priced

Great idea, now I need to make myself a set of larger hooks 👍
That just made my day ! Merci beaucoup Uncle Cys !
I just love these!!! I cannot wait to learn how to make my own. I am an avid crochet'er and knit'er. I just love this design!
That is very slick! I'm going to have to try this. Thanks for showing it!

I know I’m late to this video but it’s made me want to get back to my lathe! Do you think I can do this with a poplar dowel rod?
Poplar is a bit soft, but it should work for larger size hooks.
Hey what’s the website I can buy this
Sweet👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
