~ crochet hook giveaway ~


I created this crochet hook handle today using Sculpey and Fimo clays in the colors of lime and pearl. I have attached a glass bead to the top. This hook is a Boye size H/8 - 5.00 mm.  It's not perfect, but I think it came out pretty good. 

I have 352 followers now, so I've decided to host a giveaway.  If you are a follower of my blog, and you would like a chance to win this crochet hook, please leave a comment on this post only.  I will draw the lucky winner's names on Tuesday, July 19th at 6:00 pm.  Good luck.  :)

Edited to add:

I've created another hook - this one is a Susan Bates size H/8 5.00 mm.  I used Sculpey clay in the colors of light blue and pearl.  I've added a glass bead to the top. 

I will draw 2 names for the giveaway - the 1st name drawn will receive the green hook - the 2nd name drawn will receive the blue hook.

P.S. the doily is not included in the giveaway - it was a giveaway gift that I won from Lia - her blog is 'Lia's handwerkblog'.

**If you would like to try your hand at creating your own crochet hook handles - please take a look at this post:
