I’m so excited about my 2nd annual holiday gift guide and this year I decided to break it up into separate posts–mostly to help my maintain my sanity while trying to put it all together, lol! I decided to start with hooks since you really CAN’T have too many crochet hooks, amiright??? There are SO many cool, unique hook brands & makers out there and I hope that you can discover a few new makers to follow and support! I focused on hook makers and shops that have in-stock items versus custom orders so that you can be sure they will have something ready to ship in time for the holidays! Okay, let’s get to it!
