Congratulations to Kris R! Be sure to visit SharpCrochetHook.com to order your own Sharp Crochet Hook and Pattern Book!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Recently I received a Sharp Crochet Hook and Pattern book - and I was thrilled! It's a whole new way to marry fabric and yarn, and now I get to share!
The Sharp Crochet Hook is a fun crochet tool that would be an asset to any crocheter! Much like a steel thread hook, it's tiny. But it also has a special tip and patent pending design that allows it to glide through fabric. It comes with a pattern book, which includes 18 different crochet patterns try your hook on. You can see four of the patterns on the cover, and there are also patterns for shoes, gloves, boot cuffs, and more.
To try the hook out myself, I designed a crochet pattern - the Rainbow Happy Fun Pouch! I used the Sharp Crochet Hook to add a zipper without any sewing - love that! There is a method of installing the zipper inside the pattern book, where they suggest crocheting an edge on the zipper and then crocheting that to your project.
I took a different tack - applying the zipper right to the project with Surface Crochet stitches! It worked really well, but took a bit of practice to get the stitches even. I'd recommend practicing on a swatch to get the hang of it, no matter which method you choose to use.
I can certainly see using the Sharp Crochet Hook in the future for projects like this!. There's a sandal pattern in the book that uses the hook to crochet onto a pair of leather soles - how great would it be to make a leather bottomed crochet bag! Lots of inspiration here. And now you can win your very own!
The Sharp Crochet Hook and Pattern Book giveaway is open to international entries. The entry period for this giveaway ends November 5th, 2013 at 12AM Eastern. The prize will be mailed by the sponsor, SharpCrochetHook.com.
Disclaimer: I received the Sharp Crochet Hook and Pattern book for free but have not been compensated otherwise and all opinions are my own.
Michelle
Very nice! I wonder if this would help when adding lining to a purse so I don't have to sew it in.
Maria LaLima
I bet that would work really well to attach the lining! I may have to try this, too. 🙂
Rosetta
I want one but don't have an income right now. I saw a pair of jeans with crochet and they look awesome!
Cara Shea
It would definitely help! I crocheted a bag that had an openwork design and used that technique to "sew" in a solid fabric panel. I didn't have the sharp crochet hook however, and had to use a small pair of scissors to poke a hole through the fabric, but same idea.
Tamie
I'm not sure what I would make. Looking for something easy to get me started, as I am just learning how to crochet.
DM
I like the idea of the leather base for a bag and being able to add zippers without sewing.
Jenifer
Wow! I'm always looking for new techniques. I want to make the little white shoes!
Theresa
That is a really good idea!! I don't think I would have thought of that so thanks for the inspiration.
Kris G
This would be great! Thanks for the chance...
Jessica
I would love to do a leather bottomed bag as you suggested, but I think first I would do some baby items for my friend who is pregnant!
Laurel
I'm a brand new crocheter, so I'm not quite sure what I'd make with the Sharp Crochet Hook but I'd love to try it out!
Lisa
I would love to add edging to the neck and sleeves of a tee shirt to "dress" it up.
Lisa G
I would love to add edging to a baby blanket!
Dee Dee O.
I have a pattern for a lovey blanket that combines fleece and crochet. I would use the sharp hook to make these for my nieces and nephews.
Michell
This would be great for embellishing pillowcases for a newlywed couple. OH and adding a trim to lengthen a skirt...excited to learn more!

Zippered sweaters for my grandbabies.

I'd like to try crocheting around a zipper for a purse so I don't have to sew it in later.
Shantier Franklin
The first thing that I would make are some shoes out of flip flop soles and some bags because I am not that great with a sewing machine! 😛
Cheryl
I would add edgings to pillow cases, t-shirts and anything else I find that would look better with a trimmed edge!
Laura McCoy
I've been putting off edging some pillowcases for the longest time, as I don't relish the thought of all the hole-poking!
I'd definitely get around to them with this!
cathy
edgings on fancy couch pillows
Milagros Davalos

This would be wonderful to edge kitchen towels, line crocheted bags, and add lace to pillow cases, tablecloths, and runners.

Karla McCord
This goes against everything I know. Back in the old days, my mom worked with a large needle and a steel hook to crochet through fabric. I still have yet to master the technique. I even bought a skip-a-stitch blade for my rotary cutter.
Nicole
I would crochet-up some headbands or fabric hair bows. I don't think I've ever seen crochet edging on hair accessories! =)
Carla T.
I love crochet & fabric together... would sure make some pretty trims on my grand daughter's dresses...

Mitzi
I just love to crochet. It's so calming.
DeeAnn Forrest
Love the idea of this hook! I would either do some towel edgings, or try one of those quilts that has the blocks crocheted together, rather than sewn. Thanks for the opportunity to win!
Zarah Oliver

Amanda
I've seen the sharp crochet hook before and have wondered about it...would love to give it a try. I've crocheted for years and just started sewing recently and would love to combine them somehow. 🙂 Some crochet edging on a sewn Christmas stocking would look really nice I think.
Darlene Celestin
I would make flannel baby blankets and use the Sharp Crochet Hook to crochet an edging all around.
lavvyan
I love the idea of this! Probably would colour up some t-shirts, or maybe try that leather-bottom bag you brought up.

I've been wanting one of these hooks forever!! I would first make edging for my daughter's new blankets, then finish up baby blankets for both my friend's newborn.
Susie
I'd put a romantic crochet edging on my sheets and pillowcases. So luxurious!
Lori Matteson
I made a change purse with mine. Love that I could just crochet right through the zipper edge. If I win this I will be giving it to my daughter for Christmas. She crochets allot and I know she would LOVE it!!
Aurelia

Victoria Oplinger
The first thing I would make is a purse with a ZIPPER! 🙂

And lots of baby gifts ... and also add some sort of cuff (length) to jeans that shrunk in the wash. Oh .. the possibilities are endless!!!
Tonya Grant
I would use this to recycle all my favorite jeans I've neglected to throw away, because they all have holes in the knees. This hook would make it so much easier to repair them or torn tshirts to make them even more fab!
Shannon Egan
I'm making hanging Christmas dishtowels; the absolute worst part is trying to poke the holes along the top. I'd love something like this!!
Esther Mote
I'd use the hook to create beautiful edgings.

Alma Johnston
I would make lovely crocheted edge baby blankets for gifts!
MsKat
I have been wanting to try one of those hooks FOREVER! I would edge a blanket, and make something with a zipper, but not sure which of the two I would do first.
Diane
I have never crochet with a tiny hook. I would just practice some of the patterns until I got comfortable and see where inspiration leads.
Reb
I'd probably try it first with a small doily edging on a fabric corcle or square. But I love the idea of attaching zippers with it! I'd imagine it would also work well for putting a lining in a bag.
Gail Carroll
With 2 babies coming it would have to be blankets and socks.
Clemencia
this crochet will be great for small projects 🙂
Stacey
I don't know just yet of what I'll be making. But knowing myself, I'll make something new and different.

April Dudgeon Conner
I would edge tea towels like my Great Grandmother used to!

Lucy Heath
I would love to use this to make the crochet towel tops to hang on stove handle.... I love the towels but hate making them,
jae kae
I broke the zipper on my messenger school bag a couple of years ago. The replacement that I sewed in looks like I didn't know what I was doing (I didn't). This tool would be great for me to rip the zipper out and redo it better and stronger.
amanda
Sounds like an awesome time saver
Jennifer
This would be perfect when crocheting doilies and keeping kids out of my popcorn at the same time 🙂 Just kidding (maybe). I think this would be useful for edging girls' socks and wouldn't it be fun to embellish jeans pockets.
Tamara Kelly
LOL!
Denise
I would love to win one of these hooks and I could then finish all those crochet bags I have needing a zip!!
Hugs
Denise xx

Barbara Lange
I would make a blankets for my granddaughters since it is getting to be Christmas time. Thank you for the chance to win.

I found this somewhere before and I thought: That's it! I have this purse-thingy lying around in one drawer of my desk that still needs lining. It's useless without it and I'm just an amateur with needle and thread. So I'd finish this first. 🙂

I have so many projects waiting for liners and zippers to "polish" them so they're as neat as I see them in my head. I've been wanting to buy one of Therese hooks but budget doesn't quite stretch. I have a few other basics, like a zipper foot and a few cushioned crochet hooks to get first.
Lisa R
this would be great for crochet borders on towels. thanks for the chance 🙂

I have a beautiful baby blanket I crocheted that needs a flannel backing and this would make it so easy to attach the backing!

I like to make a doily with this hook. Thank you!

I mean, make a crocheted edging like doily to my table cloth.

This would be great for putting tops on towels. Even when I prepoke holes, it seems I have to remake them when I make some of the stitches. I LOVE the idea of putting zippers in with it! I would definitely try that!

I have some flannel for a baby blanket, so I would use the sharp hook to crochet an edging around the blanket.

JennS
I want upcycle old shirts by adding crocheted embellishment
Sheila Chappelle
I have a lot of things running through my mind right now. I would add some lacy edgings to curtains. I would add lacy edgings to facecloths and towels, sheets and pillowcases, the collars on blouses and ladies shirts. A pretty ruffle on the sleeve of a sweater would be a great embellishment. Maybe even dress up some jeans.
Lisa Poole
Would love to win this. Sounds perfect to do linings for my purse which is all I have to do to finish it. Love the idea of zippers.
Pamela
I believe the first thing I would make using the sharp hook would be dresses for my grandaughters using long sleeved tee shirts and crocheting a skirt to add to them. I think I would love this hook. Thanks for the chance to win the hook and book.

Gina
I shall make every thing in the book & then go on to create lovely items for Christmas.
Gina Kelley
I shall make every thing in the book & then go on to create lovely things for Christmas.

I saw someone mention about lining and I was thinking the same thing.I'd probably try the pouch out and add lining with out having to sew.This would be an awesome gift to win.Thank you for the opportunity!
Tammy Hempel
The hooks that can go thru fabric without putting holes in first would really be a time saver. I am really excited about the hooks!!
Mary Blace
I have twin nephews about to come into the world and would love to use this for adding satin to their baby blankets! I could also use this to add borders to clothing and other items! I have always wanted one of these!

Diana Bickford
pillowcases and a decorative edge on some of my daughter's dresses

I have been wanting a Sharp Crochet Hook to be able to crochet around blankets. Also I would use it to crochet holders on towels and crochet towel tippets right onto the towels.
Heather
I'd love to try using this to attach linings to bags!
Lisa Schwartz
I would love to try this out for lining bags. If that works I imagine I will find all sorts of other projects to use it on as well.

I would gladly try the shoe pattern using the sharp crochet technique. Would like really nice for summertime 🙂
Candice Zeller
I would make my new born granddaughter a lavender zippered sweater and her older brother a nice zipped sweater too.
Emmy
My grandmother did beautiful work like this, they are now family heirlooms. I would love to win this, I have nerve damage in my hands and can't use a needle to push through and widen the holes for crochet edgings, so I haven't been able to do any of this type of project yet. I would start with making an edged blanket for each of my grandchildren. Eager to try this product! 🙂
Rachee
I would use this on jeans.
LindaV
Love the Hooghly blog AND patterns. This looks like another challenge worth undertaking!
LindaV

Lisa Gregory
I'd make a baby blanket 🙂
Stephanie B
I was just telling a friend that in order to add a crochet border to the bottom of a dress, you need to poke holes in the fabric first. It seems like such a hassle. I love that this hook lets you skip that step!
Ting
This will be such a great way to embellish all types of clothing with thread, beads, etc.
Brenda Hess
Ooooh! Fingers crossed! I would start adding more embellishments straight onto my daughter's shirts :).
Anne Sweeneh
Cool hook.
Heather M.
Great idea...can't wait to try it!
Susan Svoboda
I think I want to make some receiving blankets for the daughter of a friend of my daughter. It's her first baby and I have already crocheted and knitted her several items and crochet edged receiving blankets would be the perfect thing to go along with the rest of her gifts. I hope I win.

I would make crochet toppers on tea towels to start, then hopefully learn new things from the book 🙂 Thanks for the opportunity
Angela Armstrong
I'd like to have a go at making a baby carrier. My son is 5 months and wearing clothes for a 1yo - he's a long baby and heavy with it. I've thought about making one, but with entirely wool I'm not sure it would support his weight. However, with leather reinforcements at the bum and the straps, I think it would be awesome!
Micki
I'm doing the happy dance right now! I've got lots of things I could use this for - trimming dish towels, cloth napkins, pillow cases, sheets, etc. - and I really love edging handkerchiefs. I really want to give the patterns in the book a try, too! Thank you so much for sharing and giving your feedback on this product. 🙂
Mayte
bummer I missed it!!!
Kris R
thank you so much! I have been in hospital and it was such a lovely surprise to come home and find I had won! Your blog is just wonderful, thank you again. xx
Tamara Kelly
Oh I'm so glad to hear from you! Whew! 😀 Though not glad you've been in the hospital! Hope you're feeling much better!

A friend ordered this for me. The hook is way to small to do any yarn. Good for thin tread. My Harold made one for me with a larger hook. I took old metal hook and he filed it to a point with fine surface file and that worked great. Careful on the size of metal hook because it can make the hole in the material to big..
