My 6 year old granddaughter is learning to crochet. This reminded me of my childhood when I had a wooden thing with a hole through it with hooks on the top. You looped the wool somehow round the top and a crocheted string started coming out the other end. Can anyone remember these and what they were called please?

Lots of ideas here, AreWeThereYet!

You can make them into all kinds of gifts for Aunties, friends, neighbours and they can say thank you -- but thinking oh, not another one--!

Sorry, forgot the link 🙂

I do like the Bee coaster. And the snake bookmark.

I think my problem was that we moved so often we never had relatives nearby to give them to, and my DM got fed up with ditching all my crap gifts when we moved, so there was never anyone to give them to 😄
