I am looking to purchase a crochet case from Muud for my wife's birthday. I have been looking at their website and my local yarn / craft store to find one but I am having the hardest time. I have found the Bea case but they say its for knitting needles but they have it under their crochet section. Does anyone know if this will work?

That is a beautiful case, and I think it would work fine for most crochet hooks. Hooks tend to be shorter than knitting needles, but I don’t think that would be a problem. The case specifically mentions double-pointed needles, which typically range from 5 to 8 inches (13 to 20 cm). I just measured the F hook I have on hand, and it’s 5 1/2 inches (14 cm). You can sort of see where the handles of the crochet hooks end in that picture, looks like with an inch or two of extra space at the bottom. Some ergonomic crochet hooks have fat handles that wouldn’t fit in the slots, but you should be able to see what types of hooks your wife uses and gauge whether the handles would fit.

Looking into it most of her hooks are around 16 cm which looks like it would fit. Thank you

Good idea. I'll go do some measuring today when she is at work to see sizes. I wasn't sure how double pointed needles compared to crochet hooks. She has a bunch of needles that are just sitting in a bag. This is just classier
