For the past few years, I have been making end of year gifts for the kids in my crochet (& knit…but nobody knits) club at school. This year the school nurse helped me to run it. We put together gift bags for the kids this year. She made them each a set of beaded yarn markers and a little kit of crochet tools. She also picked out a skein of yarn that she thought each of them would like. I made them each a yarn caddie and a Crochet Journal .
I bought the basic cut file on Etsy, and then I designed the logo (our school mascot is a hawk). I bought the hawk image and the crochet hook image on Etsy, too. I designed it using the software for my Silhouette. I bought some 1/8” birch plywood sheets and covered them with masking tape before my co-worker used her GlowForge to etch the design and cut them out. I bought the straps from 5 Below, and realized the night before I was giving them to the kids that they didn’t have a swivel. Fortunately, I had some handy!
The kids loved them and a couple of them started using them right away!
