Beginner Crochet Kit

Still having technical difficulties getting my pictures to upload...
Maybe I will have to put them on my little memory chip and then put that in the computer. Hmm....

In the mean time, I am supposed to be doing my homework (which I have been shamefully putting off).  I think, right now, I would rather clean the apartment than write my papers... Ugh.

I have been brainstorming ideas for putting together a beginner's kit for crochet for my cute little cousin Dana!  I pretty much know what I want to do with it.

Crochet hooks turned into bracelet!
How cool is this!?

1.  Get a good sized crochet hook(s)  (probably a G, H or I size would be good. F would be the smallest I'd go. Them smaller hook sizes are hard when you are just starting out!)

2.  Find some good yarn colors for her (I'm probably going to use some that I already have and make them into smaller yarnballs for her).

3.  Find some super easy patterns (I've already found a few) and print them out for her.

4.  Maybe put a few stitch markers and/or a needle (a big plastic one)  and/or safety scissors... I'm sure her mother has some scissors, so I might leave it at that.

5. Find a cute bag pattern and make it for her and put all the stuff in it.  I'll probably find a flower to attach to it, too.  Make it that much cuter!    <(^-^)>

Something like this:

Seems like a good plan to me....

Any ideas/suggestions?

I also found a really cool way to make your plain o' hooks into comfy comfort grip hooks! Super easy, too!

Wouldn't this be cool to make?! Here is a link for ideas on how to store your craft/crochet/knit stuff!
