Love these, you have incouraged me to not only do some crochet hooks with polymer clay, but buttons too. I'm still have to find some mini cookie cutters but am excited!! Thanks Sara 😊

You know you're addicted to crochet when you watch 3 seasons of a TV show and have no idea what the characters look like !!!

Thank you very much for taking the time and showing us how to make polymer clay handles for crochet hooks!

Thank you so much for making this video 6 years ago! So that way people like me can use your video! Much love

Can't believe I've been eyeing up expensive hooks bevause of hand cramps and it's this easy

Mine are in the oven as we speak! So excited and can hardly wait to use them!!! Thank you so very much.

Thanks for sharing this! So unique and fun and mine turned out so pretty!

This is really going to help me with my crochet hooks. I have arthritis really bad in both hands and the actual crocheting has helped them to the point where the pain is gone, but I can't hold the regular hooks like I used to and I love this idea.

Thank you! For this tutorial very easy with no expensive tools used simple and clear

Thank you for this. I made 8 of my hooks up today. Big improvements

What a great idea. It's easy to do, and doesn't cost much. You are awesome instructor. Thank a lot.

Thanks for the video. I can't wait to try!!

Thank you so much for the tutorial Sara. These would be perfect Christmas gifts for anyone to make for someone. :)

Miss Sara, I didn’t know that you do polymer hooks. I was searching on Etsy and thought I can make them. So, I came back to KZfaq videos to search for tutorials and there you were, in the kitchen! I love it, you are a multi crafter! Great tutorial, I will be making some of these hooks! 👁❤️🧶

Out of all the videos I've seen so far......this one is the best one. Thanks so much👐👐👐

I'm just learning to crochet via KZfaq videos and i can hardly wait to do tbis to my hooks! I loved how your uplifting and positive personality shined through your video! I'm definitely going to DO this and subscribe! You're awesome!

I love this video! I have wanted to do this for over a year but was not sure how. Yesterday I finally got six hooks covered! thanks to you. Keep up the good work.

Can’t wait to try this !! Thanks for such an easy tutorial!

OMG! I am trying this. Thanks for sharing

Thank you! I've always wanted to do this. I had no clue how easy it was to do. Can't wait to make these!

I just did mine, thank you for sharing!!!

Sarah very creative. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you so much! My 6 kids and I will be trying this for a gift for our crochet loving Grandma/Mother in law for Mother's day.

I am excited Sarah I brought polymer clay today and followed your craft recipe and they actually came out really neat

How fun and easy! You have taken the fear factor out of trying this trick!

Thank you for this! I’ve been using an itty bitty 1mm hook and the handle is so tiny it gets tricky to hold. I know what I’m doing this afternoon!

Thanks so much for sharing this awesome video. I always wondered when watching Utube videos where people got these covers. Can't wait to try this. Might have to get the clay at Michaels though as our Wallmart is limited in the craft area.

So awesome! I need ergonomic hooks and tons of polymer clay 😸 can't wait to try this!

You're so utterly delightful. ^_^ I've been watching different videos for ideas for making my own handles, I'm in a creative slump so just been going around looking for ideas because I'm not sure exactly how I want to make my hooks when it comes to color combos, or shapes in the clay. I want to cover my hooks up to the point that only an inch is showing. I have these metal stamps that are for embossing letters and numbers into things like metal, wood, and leather. I'm going to use the number ones to put the hook size on the end of the hook as I prefer the numbers for the mm size of the hook vs the letters.

Just found your channel looking for these types of handles for my hooks! Have liked and subscribed. Thank you so much for making and sharing this tutorial. You certainly have made this look so easy and encouraging to try!

awesome thanks for sharing. I will be doing these with my 12 years grand daughter, she knits and crochets. thanks for sharing.

Thank you for the lesson on making polymer clay handles for crochet hooks. My hands are going to be so happy. Arthritis has really set in, but I just can't stop crocheting.

I love the colours

Loved! Thank you!!!(amei! ) ( obrigada!) from Brasil

you have an infectious positivity about your videos. great tutorial.

Thx so much ,my puppy chewed the handle off my fave hook ,now I can replace it with a clay one. Great tutorial.

Just did two. They're finishing baking. Here's hoping I did em right lol

omg so excited! i bet my 7 yr old daughter would love to help do the prep. i may have to sneak a trip to the store. oh and PS-LOVE your kitchen!!! its so purdy!!

You are so bubbly 🙂 I can't wait to use your technique.

loved your video.

Thank you so much for your demonstration. I wanted some of these so I can now make my own to go over my Susan Bates Hooks

Very smart indeed I surely give it a go thankyou

Thank you for sharing your tutorial

Wow thanks + i loved your personality & the way you explained everything

Very much thanks. This seems to be something that I could actually do. :)

Awesome I always wondered if you could somehow do this.... thanks to you... I now know you can.... mine are in the oven right now.... thank you oh so much... :)

Wow, this is pretty cool! I am def going to do this. I will share this video with my daughter :)

thanks for sharing those were nice

You put a smile on my face. I did this way back in 2002 when my sister and I were having problems holding our hooks. I covered up the size porschen and put the size on the back that was flat. Because we both held out hooks closer to the tip. I still have them.

Watched, liked and shared ! Keep up the great work Lady !!

Thank you that great video my husband is making me a set now ♡♡

2:37 Perfect! That’s the same kind of toaster oven that we have!

Love this ❤️

Thank you so much for this video. I just couldn't find crochet hooks I liked for the larger sizes. I'm going to try making some I like today. You made it look so easy. Also you have such a sweet funny personality, I subscribed to your channel.

I love you, this is a great video and you are so nice. A very good teacher

Thanks i live at Trinidad not sure if I'll get the clay once I get it . I'll surely try it

im making some right now and i will post on my fb page right after :) if i dont burn them lol

I also like the way you don't cover the hook size on the hooks. I would never remember which was which!!

Wow, amazing.

Magnets on the corners of parchment paper will keep it flat until you are ready to bake. Don’t forget to remove them before cooking.

I’m making the covering longer and covering the size because I’m making these to fit MY hand. Not planning to sell them or anything. I think I can use a needle to scrawl in the size near the bottom of the piece where it won’t bother me. I’m also planning to use different color combos for each size to help identify them. I look forward to creating a bigger item to hold with an indent in the right place to fit MY thumb while leaving a decent amount of the hook above it.

Love the tutorial! Thank you, you explained it very well. You made me feel like I can do this. I was wondering if your hooks come out with a flat side from lying on the pan? I have seen people make an accordion with the parchment paper to rest the hooks on before baking. I wonder if this would help or if it would put dents in the clay? 🤔

Thank you. I am doing my hooks now🧶❤

Thanks for sharing

You’re adorable 🥰

Thank you!!!

I roll my clay out into a skinny snake and coil it around the hook.

Hi Sara love your crochet video and crochet idea. I learned a lot from watching your videos. Please can you tell what Mat tutorials that is under your crochet hooks? Love your work. Lucy Enriquez Carlin

Thank you so much for sharing this video. I am an avid crochet player who makes a lot of amiga roomie and I need the original mechanics but I want to make them myself and I love this idea. Question, what does the polymer clay feel like in your hand is it smooth ? Does it feel like a porous stone??

This looks great, but I do have a sincere question! I get that it's necessary to not cover up the sizing, but I usually hold my crochet hook right at the grip, where the size of the hook is generally labeled. So if that part's not covered by the clay, then would that make this whole thing a little redundant for me, personally? Will it still do any good to create handles for mine? I genuinely need to know, because I have a bunch of hooks that I'd love to make handles for but that IS a concern of mine. That this wouldn't work for me. Sorry if this comment makes no sense, it's late when I'm writing this.

How neat is this?

You kick ass! Thank you I'm going 2 make the best weapons 2 defend my family from the darkness that's coming from the pit. May favor be apon you an yours.

Hi! Have you tried using air-dry clay for making hook handles? Please try to make one, id be happy to see that btw i love your tutorial.

i have small hands, arthritis, and a love of crochet. I have looked all over in my area for the handles you can put on the hooks and can't find them, so i am going to tap my inner child and see what i can come up with.

I have a question I have a metal bowl will that work or will I have to get glass baking bowl

Thank you

Do you glaze them over so that they are smoother, also, I saw someone else make hers and she added something to the hook before adding the clay to keep the clay attached to the hook.

Do you seal them with anything. Your video was the easiest to follow. Going to make some for me.

If you do cover the size, you can use a stamp to remind yourself of the size

Thank you 👍👍😁

Tou could use a tooth pick and put a hole in it and gently move it around then insert the hook so your not loosing the colors you liked

Hi Sara, does the clay have an odor , when baking in oven? I have an allergy to the aluminum hooks (rash on my hands). This looks like a good idea for the aluminum hooks I cannot use. Thank you, much appreciated.

Thanks for making this video. How would this fix to something like a hollowed bamboo piece (handle), and what happens to oven baked bamboo?!

Sara thanks for the video. Just wondering if you use Boyes steel hooks.

How well do the handles hold out. Does the clay break off easily.

Doesn't it brake when falling on the solid floor? Is it fragile? You inspire me

Did you just say when you make buttons? Oh snapples! I hope you have a video on that!!!

When making yarn bowl

Question: I have some Susan Bates hooks. They have wood handles on them but I need them covered a bit higher on the hooks. Do you think I could add clay to them and bake??

Sara do you think making the clay a little thicker and then gripping it like you would to use it would make an Ergonomic handle?

You’re a adorable 🥰

Will this work for 2mm aluminium hooks? Or are they too flimsy?

Could you use a stamp to stamp on the hook sizes? This way I could put the clay further up the hook. Would this work?

Could you go higher on the handle and use a tool to emboss the hook size into the clay? I think I'd like the handle up to where I normally hold the hook?

What temp do you put your oven on?

Oh these are nice. But they look like they work best if you hold your hook like a knife, rather than a pencil. Can someone let me know? I've never used ergo hooks before.

What kind of glay do you use where you get it please from jodie ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Can u use a hook that has a plastic handle many thanks

Hi if I don't have parchment paper could I use wax paper instead?

Does it matter which side of the parchment paper you use?
