Photo of a crochet hook carved from beech wood sitting on a dark surface next to a twig. The wood of the crochet hook is a very nice shade of gentle orangey brown, with a beautiful grain pattern.
🧶 The stick of beechwood I brought back from Germany was just big enough for one more. Oooft, that colour.. 😍

Photo of a crochet hook made from willow wood sitting on a dark surface next to a daffodil
🧶 The great thing about carving crochet hooks as a hobby is that materials are very easy to come by - almost any old stick will do! I found this piece of willow on the way to the library.

Photo of a crochet hook made from spalted birch wood, sitting on a dark surface between some greenery and a petrol-coloured crochet star
🧶 I only learned recently that 'spalted' wood is simply wood that's started rotting already, so it gets some interesting patterns from bacteria starting to break it down. This crochet hook was unwittingly made from spalted birch.

Photo of a crochet hook made from apple tree wood sitting on a dark surface next to a rock and some greenery.
🧶 Last autumn we had to cut down an old apple tree in my granddad's garden, so of course I took the opportunity to take some wood for crochet hooks. It developed a tiny crack at the bottom, but that just adds character, surely. 😅

Photo of a crochet hook made from beech wood, sitting on a dark surface between a multicoloured crochet star and some greenery.
I mostly use windfall woods, which has led to an obsession with picking up sticks when I'm out. This piece of beech wood came back from Germany with me on my last trip, and it made the cutest most beautiful little hook!

Photo of a hand-carved crochet hook made from larch wood, sitting on a dark surface next to a periwinkle blossom. The handle of the hook still has some patches of cambium giving it some colour.
🧶 Another larch crochet hook for today. The internet will tell you that the most popular crochet hook size is 5mm, but the ones I've sold were mostly in the 3-4mm range, so I've been trying to make a few more in those sizes. This one is about 3.75mm.

Photo of a hand-carved crochet hook made from elm wood sitting on a dark surface next to a gree crochet star.
🧶 Elm is also a nice wood for some lovely grain patterns. I used to have an elm in the garden, which sadly succumbed to Dutch Elm Disease, but it left behind a number of badly placed and apparently unkillable offspring, which provide the material 😅

Photo of a crochet hook made from oak sitting on a dark surface. The handle of the hook has a very elegant curve and is still covered in the original grey/green bark with dark bands around it.
Photo of the bottom end of the crochet hook which shows a very pretty ring pattern.
🧶 The very first crochet hook I ever carved, oh, back in the summer of 2019, was this little number from an oak branch I found while hiking. It's aged beautifully and I'll never get tired of looking at the pretty, pretty end grain pattern.

Photo of a hand-carved crochet hook made from cherry wood sitting on a dark surface next to a bright yellow unfinished piece of crochet lace.
🧶 The other good thing about cherry wood is that it will stay stable even at a smaller size - not all types of wood will. The smallest size crochet hook I've made is 2mm. Not quite small enough for the teeniest tiniest of laces, but hey...

Photo of a crochet hook made from cherry wood sitting ona dark surface next to a crochet star made from bright pink and orange yarn. The handle of the hook is slightly bent and still has its natural bark on.
🧶Most commonly I use cherry wood for my crochet hooks, because it's easiest to find around here. It's also got some really nice colours.

Photo of a crochet hook made from rosemary wood. It's sitting on a dark surface, next to a crochet star made from natural white wool and a rosemary sprig.
Photo of a rosemary beetle sitting on some twigs. It's a shiny metallic green with purple stripes.
🧶 For wood, I use anything I can get my filthy paws on, really. This crochet hook was made from a rosemary bush in my garden, that I had to cut back because it was blocking a path.
(That was also when I learned about the existence of rosemary beetles.)

Photo collage of a small, hand-carved wooden tortoise, shown from multiple angles on a dark glossy wooden floor illuminated by reflective blue light. The painted tortoise has a yellowish-brown shell, green head and legs, with a slightly anxious expression on its face.
Always wanted to try #whittling, despite being left-handed and somewhat clumsy/distractible.
Behold my first wood carving effort...
Must say, this tiny tortoise's expression suggests it too felt uneasy about my handling of sharp knives without supervision.

Not painted. Ignore the blood stains... 😂
Just sharing a little something I made over the last couple days. I'm not finished yet, I'm going to make a meadow scape type thing with the block of wood and glue the fox to it.
