Hello and welcome to a crochet centered post. I recently ordered from a crochet and knitting company that I have never heard of before called The Hook Nook which was founded by Jessica Carey. I will openly admit this, I am envious of her vibe and I have more outfit inspiration than I thought I could ever have found on her social media. Of course this led me to her website and I ordered quite a few things.
THN Iridescent Ends Weaver – Currently $10
Last year I made a beautiful temperature blanket and I really loved the process. That is until I have to weave in the ends of 366 ends thanks to leap year. Turns out there is a nifty little tool that can help with this process and I cannot wait to give it a try.
THN Skein Savers – Acrylic (Gold and Silver) – Currently $8
I don’t know about other crocheters, but I always end up with an open skein of yarn that I barely used in a current project. I try to put the wrapper back on, but the size is too different and the ends come loose and end up making a huge mess. This is the meant to help with that. It is a stretchy band that keeps your opened and used skein in order and stop them from making a birds nest while in storage waiting to be used in another project.
THN Designer Interchangeable Crochet Hook Set – Currently $40
Lastly, is this really nifty interchangeable crochet hook set. I have been seeing them for years, but never came across ones while I shopped in person. My go to hooks are Clover, but I really wanted a set I can easily take with me while in the car or somewhere where I have size options. Plus, they came in a really nice carrying case. I tried them out briefly and they felt great in my hand, but I suggest giving them a quick wipe down before using. They had a bit of gunk on them from manufacturing.
Some nice bonus items that they sent my way are a few branded stickers, a pin, and aa yummy serving of yogi Honey Lavender Stress Tea. All of which was a really nice touch and the branded items were adorable and I can’t wait to stick them on things.
Interchangeable crochet hooks, particularly the normal ones, sound like a good idea in theory but I’m not sure I’d personally like to use them. I’d be worried about the hook coming apart from the handle when in use. I think I’d only use interchangeables if I tried Tunisian crochet as those are similar in style to interchangeable knitting needles which have special pins to tighten them to a cable.

I get that, these ones seem pretty solid. They screw together pretty snug and didn’t wiggle. I want to give Tunisian Crochet a try in the future. It seems so interesting and a nice change of pace.

At least that’s something. I hope they manage to work for you! And Tunisian Crochet is something I want to try too. I might think about giving it a go in the new year.

I really want to know if the ends weaver works, that would be so useful!

Loved information about crocheting gadgets. I’ve been using all my little left over yarns doing mosaic crochet. I’ve fallen in love with all the different patterns. I’m just in the learning stages. Some of these crochet gadgets will help. Thank you.
