10 Crochet Hacks I Wish I knew About Sooner!

Hooks-To-Go

Did you know you can bend the end of your crochet hook pretty easily with a pair of needle nose pliers? That way you can keep your hooks on a keychain for emergency, on the go crafting. Or, just for general organization purposes.

Yarn Bowl Hack

You’ve seen those fancy, $50 yarn bowls that you think you just can’t live without, right? You can actually just use any bowl you have and put a binder clip on the edge with the prongs up. Just thread your yarn through the hole in the prongs and there you have it: your very own yarn bowl – for free!

Seemlesly Switch Colors (Without Weaving in Ends)

I just finished a crocheted chevron afghan for a friend, and it took almost as long to weave in all of the loose ends from color changes as it did to crochet the whole thing. Okay, that’s not entirely true, but it sure felt that way! I’ll never waste time weaving in ends again with this hack. Whether you’re a knitter, crocheter, or just like working with yarn in your other crafts, this hack is totally going to be a game changer for you! Get the full tutorial for the magic knot here!
