This is an easy project to make a simple crochet hook holder or pen/pencil holder with crochet. It’s a really good exercise for beginner crocheter since it should be easy to follow.

Pattern worked in the round from the bottom-up. I used super bulky yarn and 6mm crochet hook. First, make a magic adjustable loop/circle for crochet in the round. Tutorial for a magic adjustable loop/circle for crochet in the round is here.

Yes, this pencil holder is modified from this crocheted basket, with original pattern from here.
