A comfortable grip for your crochet hook.
I love the crochet hooks with large handle from Clover but the color is so dull. You can make your own crochet handles with polymer clay.

I've been wanting to buy some hooks with big handles but they can be quite expensive. I've also recently started Polymer Clay projects so I have some around. Very good and creative idea, I'll have to give it a try, thanks! Happy

i tried this crochet handle project. my handles came out sticky. so after a few days pondering, i discovered a solution for anyone who would like to know. i REMOVED the lacquer with rubbing alcohol. i just put the alcohol on a cloth and rubbed the handle for a few minutes. let it air dry. repeat this step if necessary. all done!!!!
