Gifts for Crochet Enthusiasts: Christmas Wish List
Looking for a gift for that special someone in your life who loves to crochet? This wish list for gifts for crochet enthusiasts will give you ideas for many gift-giving occasions to come. Whether you are looking for a birthday gift for someone wanting to get into crochet or a Christmas gift for grandma who has crocheted for decades, this list has something for everyone!
You may have noticed that two large categories have been left off this list – yarn and books. There are so many different yarn brands, weights, and fibres that it would be difficult to pick just a few for a list like this.
Same with books – there are so many books from how to crochet to stitch designs and patterns.

Whether they’re a beginner just learning their first stitches or a seasoned pro with baskets of WIPs (works-in-progress) scattered around the house, I’ve put together a Christmas wish list that’s sure to make any crocheter’s holiday merry and bright.

Crochet Hooks
There are many different brands of crochet hooks on the market. Do you prefer a tapered or inline hook? Do you prefer plastic, metal, wood, or other materials that your crochet hook is made from? Is an ergonomic handle important to you?
If you are just starting with crochet, I recommend trying out a bunch of different styles until you find one that feels right with how you hold your hook, your technique, and your budget.
Clover Crochet Hooks
Clover is a big name in the crochet world and are recognized by their colourful and easy grip handles.
Amour Crochet Hook Set by Clover often tops the best crochet hook lists and are highly recommended by all who use them.

Susan Bates Crochet Hooks
Susan Bates is another big name in the crochet world. These are frequently referred to as the best inline hooks on the market.
These exact hooks are the ones I use when I need a larger hook size. I love the handle on these hooks and despite being metal, they are not overly heavy. Most large crochet hooks are plastic but I prefer metal so these top my list of hook recommendations!

This set of 6 Susan Bates hooks will allow the owner to work with a wide variety of yarn weights. The metal is polished for extra smoothness and glides easily through your stitches.
These inline hooks are some of my favourites. They are super affordable and the metal hook makes crocheting with them a breeze.

Coopay Crochet Hooks
I have never personally used these hooks but I was drawn to the bright colours and fun patterns on the handles. There are many people who want their tools to be fun and colourful as it makes their experience even more enjoyable – that that is you, these might be the hooks you need to try!
