Is this suitable for someone who crochets? Thanks!

This is absolutely suitable for crochet. I both knit and crochet and find this very helpful in keeping track of rows.

Although I haven't used it for my beading supplies, it appears that it would be great! I'm a porcelain artist teacher, and I use it for transporting those supplies. I LOVE it! I also do bead work, and would not hesitate to use it for that.

Probably. They have sets or individual crochet hooks that attach to the cords too. I can't be sure, but I emailed Denise with a question and they responded very quickly. You can ask them. Good luck!

After some googling, it looks like you can. According to about dot com, "If you don't have a mini Rainbow Loom kit, you can just use a crochet hook."

I'm sorry I used the larger hooks size c-j and I absolutely love them. In fact I wish they came in larger sizes. I haven't been crocheting with hooks this small but I imagine they would be great. I know I would have trouble with those super skinny hooks. You can make the picture larger and look up sizes of crochet hooks. Since I started using the Clover hooks I cannot use other kinds of hooks. I got my set for $32 I would have a problem spending more. Seperately the larger ones go for around $7 a piece. I started a blanket the other day and tried to use the bamboo h hook. It felt very uncomfortable and I was glad to go back to the Clover. But I lose hooks all the time So I always have to buy extras. In conclusion If you like these size Steel hooks I would definately buy them. I'd love to hear if you like them

Sorry. I haven't made the blanket. I would think you could make the strand of yarn you are weaving with longer to compensate for the tool's lack of length

I wouldn't use it for basic top stitching but I think it would be OK for decorative stitches. Since decorative stitches are basically embroidery it should work but I haven't tried it for that. I don't think it's strong enough for anything else.

Hi, I wanted to crochet with it too, but it is like a strong thread rather than cotton yarn. It has a sheen on it like a waxed thread. I didn't end up using it to crochet, but kept it because of their return policy.

I just got mine today. It looks & feels good. My only worry is that it won't be enough for a full sew in.

I have not nor would I recommend it. This machine was made for a worsted weight yarn and even then it's a looser knit. If you used a finger weight/sock weight it would be like knitting those with a size 10.5 needle, which is fine if that's the look you're going for. The other problem I would see is the super fine yarn can be a bit difficult to slip so I could see the machine catching on it or things going awry like dropping stitches, etc.

I would not make socks with this, but I'm sure you could. I've seen many reviews from people that were not able to use the machine but it takes patience to learn and a lot of practice. I wouldn't really call this a machine, it's more like a loom, you are still doing all the work. I've made blankets, bags, sweaters and cowl/scarfs.

There is a strap (loop) on the top. I'm not sure what a knitting pattern looks like. It feels like beads in the bottom so you should not have any problem with it falling off.

I wouldn't recommend this for your knitting, especially not for yarn. It has a smooth bottom, but it's got uneven edges on the sides that I think could snag stuff. Plus, I dislike this because it's top heavy and wants to tip over all the time. I put what I thought were heavy tools in the bottom, like hammers, small saws, wrenches, etc, and it still wants to tip over! That's just my take. I think perhaps I'd try something different.

Yes, I think it probably would be a good case for that! I'm not totally familiar with the Rainbow Loom product, but I looked it up and it seems like it would work. The compartments are varying sizes (not moveable) and it's fairly deep. It's deeper than it looks in the photos. If I hadn't given it as a gift, I'd post better pictures.

I am still working on mine....I have not had much time to devote to it. I think it would be a good beginning quilt, a lot of cross stitch on it, which is faster.

OK, I just sewed the edge of one of my towels and it works fine. I also just finished "making" actually simply hemming, a length of fleece for a new baby blanket. I rolled the edges and it worked quite well. When I got to the corners, I did try to do the whole 4 layers and it wouldn't, it was just too much. But the regular hem was fine. The machine only goes so fast, which is great for a beginner. For me, I probably could have sewn my baby blanket a lot faster, if the needle went faster. The control ON the machine, not the foot peddle, was a tad faster. But it was ok anyhow.

I have found this product very good for my needs. As a string cover, it would be good as it is quite thick and dense, and is easily cleaned with a vacum. Hope this answer helps.
