I thought it was time for another roundup of beautiful craft items for my ‘made by crafters for crafters’ series.
This month I am going to share some of my favourite crochet case sellers.
As creative people, crafters love to express their individuality and style and that includes the way they carry and display their equipment.
Atelier de Soyan sells sophisticated crochet hook cases, constructed with organic natural linen. They are individually hand-dyed, textured and embellished and finished with an inner lining of pure organic cotton. They even have a little internal pocket for stitch markers and other crafty bits and bobs. They cost £44 which is the higher end of the market, but for that price you get a beautifully crafted case which you would treasure forever. She has a wide range of cases in beautiful colours and unique designs and ships worldwide.
ReYarn Store sells these adorable canvas needle cases. They have multiple interior slots for needles, hooks and/or notions with elastic to keep them securely in place and a flap to protect them. They roll up compactly and tie with a leather thong. Inexpensive and cute these cases have adorable metal charms which make them really attractive. They are shipped worldwide.
Talfourd Jones. This Moroccan floral crochet hook case is made using a gorgeous selection of cotton quilting fabric. The top folds down to keep your hooks secure and there is a small zippy pocket which can hold a tape measure and locking stitch markers. Talfourd Jones provide custom orders on request and ship worldwide. At £46 it is in the high end range but the stunning fabrics and high quality, definitely make this a case you will want to own.
ArtistBeeBee I love this striking rainbow crochet case. It is made using super soft 100% acrylic yarn for the pockets and 100% cotton yarn for the outside cover and ties. It costs £34 or £42 with the hooks included. ArtistBeeBee make a range of other crocheted cases, as well as other lovely crocheted items. They ship worldwide. It is a very special and unique piece.
Namolio sells crochet hook cases as beautiful as some designer purses! I love the combination of pure linen with the crochet doily detail and button. They are UK based and sell worldwide. One of these lovely cases will cost you a very reasonable £24.50. They would make a lovely gift for a crafty friend or relative.
Fibernstuff by Terrill. This stunning crochet case is made from 100% wool then felted in the washing machine. It is done in shades of blue and lavender. It folds into thirds and fastens with a loop over a button. The hooks fit snugly into a beautiful piece of crochet lace. The cases are shipped world wide and cost £15.50 which is really reasonable for such a unique piece.
Honeysuckle Barn make their crochet rolls from 100% designer cotton. I love the choice of fabrics available and the gorgeous range of pattens and prints used. They also supply a range of matching project bags. At £18 this crochet roll is very reasonable. Honeysuckle Barn have very kindly offered you lovely lot a 15% discount on orders with a minimum value of $19.00 (her crochet hook rolls will all qualify with this price range).
The coupon code to quote is crochet16 and it expires on 31st December 2016. She ships worldwide.
Jolly knits makes these lovely crochet hook cases from Baumwolle Cotton. They have plenty of room for all your hooks. Each one is unique and comes in a large range striking fabrics. They cost £20.60 and ship worldwide.

My favorite yarn is Mountain Colors sock yarn. I love all of the colors.
Ooh I haven’t heard of that one! I will go and have a look at it… Good luck! X
I usually like Sirdar yarns as they are not expensive, but feel like they should be, and give my work a nice finish.
Sirdar is great. It is definitely one of my go to yarns. Good Luck x
Shepherd’s Wool from Stonehedge Fiber Mill
So many new yarns to try! Thank you. Good luck! X
I still haven’t managed to get the hang of crocheting yet but I’d love to win one of these gorgeous cases for my mam 🙂 x
That is so sweet! Good luck! X
These cases are so gorgeous I want them even though I only own one crochet hook!
I love Drops Alpaca yarn – it’s so soft. The cases are lovely.
I’m a big fan of Stylecraft yarn as it’s good value with lovely colours. Love the crochet cases and would be very helpful to keep my hooks in order.
Style craft is my favourite wool! It is fab for projects and comes in a million colours! Good luck! X
I’m entering for my sister so don’t know much about yarn, I do love cross stitching and really want to learn to knit and crochet!
That is so lovely of you. Good luck! X
I usually use Sirdar but am keen to try a range of different types – so many colours.
I love a coloury yarn store! Good luck! X
My local market stocks Robin yarns, which have some great colours and are really cheap.
Thanks Lemonpiez I will look that one up. Good luck! X
I’m entering and following for my gran!
That is lovely of you Leanne. Good luck! X
I’ve had luck wearing alpaca… I have to be careful with merino–I do better if it’s a merino blend to prevent an allergic reaction–otherwise I’m better off with an acrylic, cotton, or polyester yarn.
Denise
Good Luck Denise. x
Very hard to choose a favourite yarn – I love different ones for different reasons. Rowan Kid Silk Haze is so pretty, Stylecraft Special DK comes in lots of colours and is soft for a value yarn, also like hand dyed sock yarn from crafters on Etsy.
There are some lovely ones on etsy aren’t there. Good luck! X
I’m entering for my mum 🙂
That is lovely of you Louise. Good Luck! x
I don’t have a favourite yarn as I don’t crochet, it’s my daughter who loves to crochet and I do t know what yarn she uses but it always looks lovely
That is lovely Annette. Good luck for the giveaway. x
Alpaca from a local farm is my favourite, although I’ll be honest I’m not familiar with branded yarns as I was given a bundle of part balls to get me started that I’m still working my way through.
That’s amazing Clare. I love Alpaca and great to source locally. Good luck!
Really pretty cases. I’ve always wanted to take up crochet.
These are lovely!! that’s another project bookmarked!!
Thank you Zatun. Xxxx
Alpaca as i have my own alpacas
Joanne! That is amazing! Do you make your own yarn? I love Alpacas! X
My favourite Yarns are ghost stories and tales about smugglers of the old days hiding booty in caves and caverns along the coastline, i also love hearing about secret passage ways in buildings and i would love to live in a house which was full of hidden doors and secret passage ways. 😉
Ha ha Stewart that is funny! Don’t forget to subscribe to be in the giveaway. 💙
I am crocheting a rainbow blanket with Cascade 220 Fingering at the moment and it is a dream to work with so it is my favourite right now.
I haven’t heard of that one Sandra. I will have to go and have a look! Good luck. X
I love Stylecraft
Me to Claire! It is my go to yarn. I love their colour selection. Good luck! X
My favourite yarn is anything from Noro. The colours and textures are sublime. Sadly, I have never been able to afford to buy it as I would love to make a cardigan or jumper from it and that’s really expensive!
Noro is a beautiful yarn. Maybe Father Christmas will pop some down the chimney this year… Good luck! X
I am entering on behalf of my best mate as would love to win as a pressie for her, she is trying to get me into crochet, I am going over this saturday for my first lesson, she has worn me down, so i dont have a favourite yarn yet
I hope you have a great time Katie, sounds like you are so lucky to have each other. Good luck. X
I love knitting but am still struggling to teach myself crochet, I’ll get there eventually I hope
I am sure you are doing great! Good luck! X
I’ve been using stylecraft at the moment and it’s great to work with X
It is Claire and I love the colour range! Good luck! X

Thank you. Good luck.
Hi I’m following the blog! I’m entering for my nana so I can’t answer the question sorry! The cases are so beautiful though, I’d love to give her one for her birthday coming up soon 🙂
Lizzy you are a lovely granddaughter! Good luck! X
I don’t have a single favorite yarn because it totally depends on the project. I love making things for my family so I usually let them choose the yarn I’ll be using.
That is very kind of you. You have a very lucky family! Good luck. X
I dont have a favourite yarn as it depends on what I want to make and who it is for as it is all different.
Good point Deborah… Good luck! Thank you for visiting me. X
Must admit I’ve been using a lot of Stylecraft Special DK as it is such good value and absolutely fine for crochet blankets.
I love style craft! Good luck. X
My favorite yarn is Big Bad Wool Weepaca Yarn. So soft!
I haven’t heard of that one. I am going to look it up this evening! Good luck! X
My favourite yarns are by Rico; especially the Merino DK, so soft, gorgeous colours and knits beautifully. I’ve knitted for years but am new to crochet and loving it.
I like red heart yarn 🙂
