Crochet Creatures + More!: Help!!
Hey guys!
So I am working as a TA in a summer program, and I would love to teach my kids to crochet. Only one thing is holding me back - the hooks! Obviously, we can’t pay for crochet hooks for all of them. Which brings me to my question:
Does anyone know an easy way to make crochet hooks?

Go on one of the equipment Ravelry groups and post an ISO for donated crochet hooks. I’m sure people have loads of them that they’ll give.

You could ask for donations. I know I have a bunch of duplicate hooks and the craft community on tumblr is awesome. I’m sure they’d send them

Well I don’t know about making them, but my local thrift store always has assortments of hooks in a bundle. So, maybe check thrift stores?

You can get plastic ones at Joanns or Michaels for a dollar each. They are cheap little white ones and are easy to work with.

If you’ve got any spare wire clothes hangers and the tools for cutting and bending wire, those would work to make crochet hooks.
