Courtesy Pattern : CP74 - Crochet Hook

CROCHET PATTERN
CP073 - Prince Charming
Crochet Hook

The Crochet Hook - that magical instrument through which a fiber artist can channel their creative powers to engender art; simply from repetative hand movement.

While the crochet hook can look, weigh and appear exactly the same based on company or brand - the hand behind it proves that no two existing hooks will ever be exactly alike.

We can take that one step further by creating our own... from fiber.. here and now!  And hey, it's doubtful this one will get lost in the couch cushions... or tucked away in a bun!

This pattern was originally designed last year and while cleaning up my 'draft posts', I decided to just go ahead and post it for your hooking pleasure!  I hope you enjoy!
