Why I love the Knit Pro crochet hook kit
- Nine sizes included
- Sleek, safe, zip-up kit

This luxury crochet hook kit is a must for any keen crocheters out there. There are nine colourful, aluminium hooks ranging in sizes 2mm-6mm. I love this kit as it's so handy for travelling, making crocheting on the go a dream. This kit would make a fab stocking stuffer!

Brother AE2500 Sewing Machine £169.99 £129.99 (save 23%)
Why I love the Brother AE2500 Sewing Machine
- Impressive stitch selection
- Cute pink colourway!
- Great for topstitching hems due to its twin needle capacity
Another Brother sewing machine I love is the AE2500. Previously, featured in our roundup of the best cheap sewing machines, the AE2500 has 25 stitches to choose from including stretch stitches and overcast stitches.
One of the features I love about this machine is the backstitch level. It's positioned above the needle, making it easy to reach up while you're sewing and keeps your free hand in eyesight.
Plus, who wouldn't love its pink design?!
Brother AE2500 sewing machine is a brilliant for every day projects and patterns. I'd recommend using it to sew all your autumnal and festive outfits!

BriSunshine 350W Electric Pottery Wheel £209.99 £167.99 (save 20%)
Why I love the BriSunshine 350W Electric Pottery Wheel
- Reversible direction
- Removable splash pan
- Variable speed control
We included the BriSunshine 350W Electric Pottery Wheel in our roundup of the best pottery wheels and I still think it's a great little machine.
The Pottery Throwdown inspired me to start throwing but I don't have a studio near me (or space for my own studio!) so this mini wheel was my saviour. It has the sturdiness and durability of a much larger machine, meaning it stays in place while throwing.
If you're new to the world of pottery like me, this is a wonderful way to get started.
Pottery is one of my favourite crafts because it's so mediative! This mini pottery wheel has enabled me to throw in the comfort of my own home.
