Can definitely say that the Clover set is one of the best things I have ever bought for myself - they were a Christmas and birthday gift to myself. The neck lights are great - have more than one so that when I stay elsewhere I can still do craft. I bought the blocking mats as a gift to my sister for Christmas last year and although she has yet to use them we have played with putting them together and they do go together fairly well.

Blocking mats are, indeed, wonderful. I have several sets of the knit iq brand. They are very thick and have the grid. They also have sets that have a centimeter grid on the back side. And they have a crochet version that also has concentric circles, for blocking round pieces. And all of the knit is versions can connect together. Honestly, you will want multiple sets for larger pieces like big shawls or baby blankets. Along with those, I HIGHLY recommend knit blockers. They make blocking faster than using t pins. The blockers have 4 and 8 pins per blocker. They aren't cheap but they are wonderful and I can't imagine not having them, now that I do. Again, I suggest multiple sets because you can go through them quickly. The wooden blocking board is another great tool. I recommend getting a 13" board so you can have plenty of versatility. Clover hooks aren't my number one but I do have a set that I got on sale. I keep them for when I need a tighter tension.

That's great advice. Thank you for sharing!

Just came across your channel. You two are the cutest together. I need that foam blocking system when you have a small space. I have the neck light and it is fantastic. You can use when traveling and either by plane, train or a passenger in a car and light is essential. I agree with dedicated bags. I got from Target a nice zipper black tote with an outside pocket. It looks very nice especially going to work with it or traveling to conferences and it is so unexpected. It is large enought to carry several yarns to other items. I have three bags one for embroidery, crochet and knitting. Each bag has its own tools that are needed to include scissors to measuring tape. Love the 3D Granny Square book. I am doing my first 3D Sunflower blocks for my granddaughter. I need to check this book and the book of the blankets. Keep up the inspirations we are all anticipating your next makes also.

Thank you so much for watching the video and this very nice comment! I bet the 3D Sunflower afghan will be beautiful!!!

After going thru many crochet hooks I rather choose the pink Tulip hook set yes it’s expensive but it’s all worth it! I owned foam blocks but found it useless & even owed a blocking board I found it all a waste of my money. I ended up getting a clothes steamer & it’s so much easier & quick. It’s not good on wool I heard so I mainly use it for my acrylic yarn! Save your money because everything is getting so expensive, don’t buy more things you will regret getting I have & I wish I didn’t had to spend my hard earned money on things I didn’t need!

Thanks for watching!!! I love how everyone shares in this youtube community!

Great list, I have a few of these on my Amazon list as well, but there were a few that I definitely added (the foot massager) ❤

I got the foot massager for Mother's Day!

I’m sure your suggestions would be really good for some people, but if you’re planning to give a crochet-related gift, you should be sure the crocheter has a use for that particular item. For example, I’m a passionate crocheter, but I don’t like ergonomic crochet hooks, and I use just three sizes almost exclusively, so I wouldn’t want a whole set of ergonomic crochet hooks. I can’t read patterns, so books wouldn’t be useful, and I prefer to choose my own combinations of yarn and patterns, so I don’t use kits. So just be careful to check before you buy one of these gifts.

[@WindyHillCrochet]

Thanks for watching the video and your thoughtful reply. You make some good points about general gift-giving. Because many people do not know what to buy someone, we are hoping to point them in the direction of some excellent products that we personally would love to have. Of course, these items may not meet everyone’s satisfaction. But we are hopeful that our suggestions point people in a good direction that offers them the opportunity to give a thoughtful and well-intentioned gift. There are so many other items we would enjoy, but these are at the top of our list.

@@WindyHillCrochetYou could also gently nudge your intended gift recipient to make her or his own wishlist. 😄

[@vegangelist]

I would agree that it is risky to buy hooks for someone unless they are brand new or you know they want those particular hooks. I love ergonomic hooks but tulip etimo hooks are my go- to. Anyone who knows me/ my crocheting knows that tulip hooks are the only hooks I would want. Lol

for the "54 Best Baby Afghans" book, all patterns can be viewed on ravelry (the original book is almost $100AUD, but there is a Kindle version for $11.99AUD)

Thanks for the info on the baby afghan book. For U.S. the book on Amazon is still inexpensive. Thanks for watching and commenting.
