DIY Crochet Hooks Holder

Crochet Hooks Holder

It is so hot today in Austin, almost hit 100 degree now! I finished this crochet hooks holder before lunch. Now I am going to share with you my DIY process.

First I collected 2 cardboard rolls from my yarns. I aligned them and taped them together.

Then I started to crochet the base. I crocheted 6 sc into a magic ring, then added 6 sc in every each row until it is slightly bigger than the cardboard roll.

Crocheting the base

The base has to be slightly larger

Then I stopped increasing stitches, continued to crochet the same numbers of stitches for each row in back loop only. I alternated colors every rows to create the stripes pattern.

I crocheted the height about 2.5 inch extra, so that I could bend it into the cardboard roll to create a nice edging on top.
