I made this crochet yoke by combining 2 - 3 different patterns. Made the sleeve separately and attached it to the body.

Here are some pictures.

Crochet Lipstick Holder

A small gift for a dear friend. I came to know this friend through crochet only, so what more apt gift can I give her.  

Actually I planned to gift her a Lipstick and lipbalm. This pouch was planned later. Having experienced the frustration of searching for the lipstick in my wide handbag, I decided to make this small pouch to hold them. 

I added a small matching button instead of the drawstring. 

I was glad when she liked the gift :-)

Crochet Hook case - Pattern

For a long time, my crochet hooks have been lying around. I was searching for the right pattern and finally, I combined 2 to 3 patterns and came up with my own !! 

Now, on to the hook case

 

I made the front piece following this tutorial. But I adjusted it to suit my needs. Since I wanted a rolled up case, I omitted the spine part of the tutorial. For the smaller hooks, I used dc stich to create the hook pocket and for 5.5 mm and 6 mm hooks, I used tr crochet stitch instead of the double crochet stitch.
For the cutter's pocket, I did, sc, tr, dc, hdc to form a bigger pocket.

I used the start pattern for the back part of the case and a small strip made of sc for the top part.
