Attention Crocheters! Here's a nifty crochet hook hack from reader Red Paper Umbrella. Spend just a dollar to upgrade all your crochet hooks to comfort-style hooks using pencil grips from the dollar store. Back-to-School supplies are hitting shelves already, so now's a great time to do this project. [project instructions here]
Project Estimate:
- Pencil grips, $1
- Masking tape, on hand or $1
- Crochet hooks, on hand
Total: $1 and up

I didn’t know these grips were at the dollar store. I’ll be picking some up if they are next time I go. I said no to a pack of grips like this that were three dollars last week. My four year old wanted to cut them up and make necklaces with them.
That is a really incredible idea – really thinking outside the box.
What a cool and frugal idea for spicing up one’s old crochet hooks. I must check my local dollar store and see if they have any of these so I can try it. TFS!

WOW! How simple, yet Fantastic!
(and I love the sparkles too ) ;o)
Hey! did you know they have flourescent colors in duct tape??
I got some at Micheals- but it wasn’t a dollar ;o(
They look really cute, but the link for the instructions is not working for me! :-(
