If you like to take your crochet hooks with you on the go (even if it is just from room to room in your house), it is always handy to have a small case in which to keep your hooks and notions.
This crochet hook case will do just that!
This case features three pockets for crochet hooks and then one larger that works well fora small pair of scissors, stitch markers and yarn needles.
What will you keep in your case?
Materials:
For my hooks case I used one skein of the Whims Merino Yarn by Furls Fiberarts. This is a lightweight yarn that is a blend of merino wool and nylon.
I’ve also used a Size E/4 (3.5 mm) Hook.
The Design:
The case itself is worked as one piece using an easy stitch pattern. At the end you will fold up the bottom, crochet around the edges and then sew your pockets. You can see this demonstrated in the video tutorial below.
Feel free to embellish your case with a personal tag as I have! If you complete your case, I would love to see a photo! You may send it by email or tag @RichTexturesCrochet on Instagram.

Free Crochet Pattern:
Ch 32.
Row 1: Sc in the 2nd ch from hook and in each st across. Ch 1, turn. (31 sts)
Row 2: Sc in the 1st st, * spike in the next st two rows below, sc in the next st; rpt from * across. Ch 1, turn.
Row 3: Sc in each of the first 2 sts, *spike in the next st, sc in the next st; rpt from * across, sc in the final st. Ch 1, turn.
Continue to repeat rows 2 and 3 until work from the beginning measures approximately 14 inches. Fasten off, weave in your ends.
To create the case:
Fold up the bottom of the case to approximately 4.5 inches. This will form the bottom pocket in which your hooks will sit. Pin in place.
Edging:
Join your yarn with a sl st in the bottom right corner of your case. Working through both thickness, evenly work rsc stitches all the way along the side of your case. As there are no clear places to insert your hook, simply insert where comfortable and work the stitch. At the top, work 2 rsc in the corner st, work an rsc in each st across the top, 2 more rsc in the corner, and then evenly along the final side, working through both thickness when you come to the pocket.
Fasten off and weave in your ends.
To create the hook pockets:
Each of my hook pockets is approximately 1.5 inches wide. You can adjust the size of these pockets if desired. At 1.5 inches I was able to create spots for three crochet hooks and one for notions.
From the right edge of your case, measure 1.5 inches and mark with a straight pin. Do the same twice more from each pin. Next, join your yarn at the bottom of the case at the first pin through both thicknesses. Sew, working the both thickness a line following your pit up to the top of the pocket. Fasten off, weave in your ends. Repeat twice more.
Fasten your snaps to the top two corners of your hook case. Add any embellishments desired and enjoy!
