Deal of the Week: Interchangeable Crochet Hook Set

Monday, September 24th, 2012

One of the reasons I love crocheting–and one of the only things I like better about crocheting than knitting–is that crochet travels well. Throw a ball of yarn and a hook in your purse, and you can crochet anywhere! Unfortunately, hook sizes are where things start to get a little sticky. What if you’ve tossed an I hook in your bag, and you do a gauge swatch while you’re out and figure out that what you really need is a J hook? It’s happened to me before!

Deal of the week3 Deal of the Week: Interchangeable Crochet Hook Set

Our Deal of the Week: a Boye Interchangeable Crochet Hook Set, fixes this problem in the most efficient, convenient way possible. Rather than carrying around your entire collection of crochet hooks, you can buy an Interchangeable Crochet Hook set and have all the sizes you need on hand whenever you want them. The best part is that this set is on sale for only $19.99 this week!

crochet hooks Deal of the Week: Interchangeable Crochet Hook Set

The Boye Interchangeable Crochet Hook Set includes 14 crochet hook heads that all attach to one aluminum handle. The hooks range in size from 1 through 14, so these hooks are meant for lace and other fine crochet. The aluminum handle has a comfort grip, so each and every time you use these hooks, your hands will stay comfy. The convenient carrying case is slim and small, so you can easily tuck it in a purse or bag without it taking up too much room. It also has foam inserts with slots for each of the hooks and the handle. This makes it easy to see which size hooks are which and ensures that you won’t lose any hooks without noticing they are missing. The case also zips closed to keep all your tools snug inside.

Order your Interchangeablee Crochet Hook Set this week to get this great deal! The hook set and case are on sale for only $19.99, a 35% discount from the original price of $30.59. This is the perfect set for hooking on the go!

A 12″ x 11″ pocket on the side of the bag fits your patterns, charts, and books and closes with Velcro so they don’t slip out.

The set also includes a striped clutch that keeps the entire set organized and handy. Along with the set of hooks, you will receive a pair of thread scissors, a small ruler, and two yarn needles for finishing your projects. This set has everything you need to travel with a lace crochet project!

Hit the Beach with Vanna’s Choice Yarn: Sunset Coral

Friday, June 22nd, 2012

Summertime to me only means one thing: the beach. I can’t think of anything more relaxing that lying on a beach soaking up some rays. Luckily, I am not alone; my best friend shares the same fondness for sand and sunshine. In fact, she is even having a beach wedding next summer in Florida and I am her maid-of-honor. It’s no surprise that she chose coral to be one of her wedding colors, and my mind is already racing with all the gorgeous coral-colored items I can crochet for her! My first plan of action is to pick up a bunch of skeins of coral yarn, and I know just the thing! Vanna’s Colors Yarn by Lion Brand in “Sunset Coral” is the perfect shade of coral. Plus, it’s on sale right now! Originally $4.39, Vanna’s Colors Yarn is on sale for only $3.73 per skein.

060286 main Hit the Beach with Vannas Choice Yarn: Sunset Coral

This variegated yarn features beautiful coloring that creates a subtle, heathered effect. This is a bulky yarn, which means it’s quick to crochet with and ideal for making afghans. Because it’s bulky, it will also be sturdy enough to take to the beach, and to stay warm with during the winter. I can’t think of a better way to be reminded of the beach during the winter than with a bright, coral afghan!

The best thing about Vanna’s Colors Yarn by Lion Brand is that it is easy to care for. It’s 100% acrylic and is machine washable and dryable. Although it’s a no-brainer for me to get this yarn in Sunset Coral, it does come in a variety of other colors, as well, including Lagoon Blue, Wildflower, Seagrass, and Deep Sea.

No matter what color you choose, you’re sure to fall in love with this soft and beautiful yarn! Pick up a skein today; it’s on sale for only $3.73! This yarn retails for $4.39, so don’t miss this hot sale. Order a skein (or two!) today!

Deal of the Week: Crochet Master Steel & Aluminum Crochet Hook Set

Monday, May 14th, 2012

If you’re interested in learning how to crochet or you’ve just taken up this craft, you’ll need a complete collection of crochet hooks to make all the crochet projects you’ve been itching to try. This week’s Deal of the Week, a Crochet Master Steel & Aluminum Crochet Hook Set, has almost every crochet hook you will ever need!

Deal of the week1 Deal of the Week: Crochet Master Steel & Aluminum Crochet Hook Set

With steel hooks in every size from 00 to 14 and aluminum hooks in sizes D through K, you won’t find too many crochet patterns that you can’t make without the hooks in this set. Buy the Crochet Master Crochet Hook Set, and you may never have to buy another crochet hook again! This hook set has a steel hook small enough to make this delicate Lace Ruffle and chunky enough to make this quick Cozy Comfort Prayer Shawl. Whether you want to make a fast project that hooks up in just a few hours or an heirloom lace that will be passed down for generations, this Crochet Hook Set will supply you with the right size hook.

If you’re like me, you’re worried that you’ll lose one of these 24 crochet hooks. I know I’ve lost a few in my time! But the Crochet Master Steel & Aluminum Crochet Hook Set comes with a vinyl case with a holder for each individual crochet hook. The case zippers closed so that none of the hooks will slip out if you travel with the case. The aluminum hooks are also color coded so you will know at a glance which size is which. With this organizer, you can keep all of your hooks organized by size, and they won’t get lost in the depths of your crochet bags, never to be seen again.

If you order the Crochet Master Steel & Aluminum Crochet Hook Set this week, you can get a full collection of crochet hooks for only $24.99. Considering a single crochet hook can cost over $3.00, you’ll get each of these hooks for less than a third of the full prize. Plus, you’ll get the vinyl case to keep your hooks handy and organized! This deal is only running until the end of the week though, so make sure you get your Crochet Hook Set soon!
