As a fledgling knitter, I was most interested to read about using the hook to pick up dropped stitches! :>) I linked to this on my weekly link roundup (post is under my name). Thanks!

I have been looking for a mini crochet hook as a pendant for my chain because I LOVE to crochet. I would never have thought of a keychain crochet hook. That is a neat idea!! Thanks. Your pictures are excellent.

Thank you so much!! I googled “mini crochet hooks” and your tutorial popped up. I want to make these to include in the goody bags for our big crochet event next month. Our members will love them!!

Wow! I keep a small pouch of notions and was actually about to buy a mini crochet hook to put in there, as it’s only 3.5 inches tall, but this is SO much better! Thank you so much!!!

Thanx for the swift response Karrie, I don\’t have any drills but I was thinking about sanding it down abit (sharp corners) and then wrapping wire around it and fastening it with a drop or 2 of super glue. I think that will work;)

I’m sorry that I don’t have a solution for a hook that breaks. I tried this with an aluminum hook from the japanese dollar store, and it broke on me. I have had success with the Boye aluminum hooks (as pictured). Perhaps all is not lost though… if you have a dremel or similar tool, you could just drill a litte hole in the hook to attach it to you keychain. Sorry and good luck!

Hi. I loved your hook keychain idea so gave it a try this morning. Cutting the hook was easy but I can\\\\\\\’t get the flat end to bend around without breaking off. Could you drop me an email please? I\\\\\\\’d like some advice before I destroy another hook LOL! (the flat end broke off of the 1st attempt). I\\\\\\\’m trying a sz 3mm/D aluminum hook so it is a small one. TIA!

very good idea; but clip it to your work bag. easier than fumbling with your keys
