Crochet hook case
Someone posted some sites, but I didn't get them. Then the same person (I am
sorry, I forgot your name) posted a reply giving one of the sites again. Thanks so much for the site. I am going to try making one of these, even though my crochet skills are limited to granny squares. Katherine |

I made one a few years ago that opens like a book ,it holds my crochet needles.It takes a little time to make but it is worth it.if it gets a little smuggy from use , the neat thing is you can remove your needles throw it in the washer and dryer and it is ready to use again.All in All I like the one I made.I need to make one for my knitting needles.Stella "Katherine" wrote in message ...

Stella,
Was yours crocheted or knitted? THe reaason I ask is obviously because I would love to get a knitted pattern like the crocheted one. Here is the URL for the crocheted one which was posted earlier today. http://hometown.aol.com/lffunt/alhookcase.htm Katherine Stella Fenley wrote: Katherine , I made one a few years ago that opens like a book ,it holds my crochet needles.It takes a little time to make but it is worth it.if it gets a little smuggy from use , the neat thing is you can remove your needles throw it in the washer and dryer and it is ready to use again.All in All I like the one I made.I need to make one for my knitting needles.Stella "Katherine" wrote in message ...

Katherine,
You could make it knitted by just substituting your favorite knitting stitch for the crochet and change the length of the case so it is longer for knitting needles if you wish. Basically you need to make two pieces, one for the outside and one for the inside pocket then use yarn and a yarn needle to sew them together to make the pockets for the needles. I made a case years ago out of scraps of denim fabric for the outside and red fabric on the inside. I also made a small pocket on the outside that has a flap with a button so I can put my yarn needles and a small pair of scissors in it. Maybe I can come up with a knitted version of a knitting needles case. I would like to make a shorter one for my double pointed needles...still working on my socks..I am hooked.

Actually, one of the crochet patterns didn't have two pieces. It used the technique of crocheting twice into the same row, once in the front loops and once in the back loops, and then rejoining in the next row. I don't think that one could be duplicated in knitting. -- Barbara Vaughan My email address is my first initial followed by my last name at libero dot it. |

Barbara,
I agree that you couldn't duplicate the pattern exactly, but I don't think it would be hard to make a knitted hook holder, they sky would be the limit on the variations you could do. It would be a fun project.

I don't think that one could be duplicated in knitting. I bet it could, with double knitting. :-) You'd have to knit in the front and back of the stitch for a row, then (for a wider opening) double knit for a row (knit-slip across the row twice, once for each side), then k2tog for a row. =Tamar |
