Wow, doesn't this beautiful set of Crochet Hooks get you really excited too? It's super handy for storing your entire set. No more hooks lying around, and everything is always neatly organized. You can find the pattern here at Yarnplaza.com!
The more crochet projects you have, the more different Crochet Hooks you’ll need. You often use different Crochet Hooks for Cuddly Toys than you would for, say, a chunky Hat. We thought it would be fun to crochet a pretty—and, above all, practical—pouch!

Patterned Crochet Hook Pouch
Stitches used:
v. = single crochets
hv. = slip stitch

Work the patterns in the round until you reach the flap.
Start with 12 l.
Round 1: 10 single crochets; start with your first single crochet in the second chain stitch from your Crochet Hook. 3 single crochets in the last chain stitch. Do not turn, but continue on the other side of your starting chain. 10 single crochets, 3 single crochets in the last chain stitch. Join with a slip stitch in the firstsingle crochet.
Row 2: 1 ch., 9 dc., 2 dc. in each of the next 3 dc., 10 dc., 2 dc. in each of the next 3 dc., fasten off with a sl st. in the first ch.
Round 3: 1 ch., 9 sc., * 2 sc. in the next sc., 1 sc. in the next sc. * 3 times, 10 sc., repeat from * to * 3 times. Fasten off with a sl st.
4th round: 1 ch., 9 sc., * 2 sc. in the next sc., 1 sc. in the next 2 sc. * 3 times, 10 sc., repeat from * to * 3 times. Fasten off with a sl st.
Round 5: 1 ch., 9 sc., * 2 sc. in the next sc., 1 sc. in each of the next 3 sc. * 3 times, 10 sc., repeat from * to * 3 times. Fasten off with a sl st.
Round 6: 50 single crochets in the back loops.
Rows 7 through 41: 50 sc.
From here on, we'll stop crocheting in the round and start making the flap on one side of the pencil case. Fold the pencil case in half, with the front and back layers together, and mark the stitches that fall on the sides. From side to side, you now have 24 stitches.
Row 42: Attach a new strand of yarn and crochet 24 single crochets. Turn at the end.
Rows 43 through 46: 24 sts.
Rows 47 through 56: At the beginning and end of each row, crochet 2 stitches together. Finish row 56 with 4 single crochets.
Crochet a border of v around the flap.
Make a loop of about 12 stitches and attach the chain to the flap.
Button:
Row 1: 2 ch., 5 sc in the 2nd ch. from the Crochet Hook.
2nd row: 2 sc in each sc of the previous row = 10 sc
Round 3: Crochet 2 stitches together = 5 sc.
Fasten off, thread a piece of yarn through the last stitches, and pull it tight.
Single crochet the ball to the pencil case.
