Part of the fun of taking a passenger steam train trip is talking with your fellow passengers. This year, we’re providing two locations where our passengers can get to know each other. We’d love to hear about your favorite things you’ve discovered on the tour and see photos of your current crochet projects. You’re invited to join us daily for virtual cocktails/appetizers and dinner. (We’ll be sharing links to some fabulous recipes!)

I have not used interchangeable hooks before. I have played around with tunisian before made a few dish cloths… I would love these hooks!!! I’ve been crocheting for a little over a year and love it!!
I have done a bit of Tunisian, but not with interchangeable hooks.
I have never been able to use Denise Interchangeable hooks, but have done Tunisian stitch before. Thanks for a chance at this wonderful giveaway!
I am just learning Tunisian crochet.
I have tried Tunisian crochet once, I’d love to give it another try. Maybe if I took a class in person it might click better for me…
I have done Tunisian crochet before, but I have not used interchangeable hooks. I think they would be really nice because the fabric gets really heavy on the long hooks..
Yes I have done Tunisian crochet but I haven’t used Denis Interchangeable hooks. Oh how I would love to win so I could try them out!
I have an ergonomic handle with interchangeable hooks. Tunisian is on my to-do list, but haven’t tried it yet.
Besides how cute the colors are the set is going to be very useful.
Wow! I’ve never seen these – I’m interested! And the case is just lovely!
I have not tried tunisian crochet yet nor have I used interchangeable hooks. These would be awesome!
I’ve never used interchangeable crochet hooks but have used the knitting needles. Yes, i have done Tunisian crochet – a long time ago!
I love Tunisian Crochet and I have made a few pieces using the technique. I also already own a set of Denis hooks and they are *fabulous* which surprised me because I swear by metal hooks. I would highly recommend them. I would love to win this particular set because it would be great for travel!
What a perfect giveaway today! I have a couple of tunisian hooks but not the right size for my new pattern (pour homme) that I bought yesterday and had planned on getting online today to make a purchase. Maybe will wait to see if I am a lucky person today!
I have done Tunisian crochet but I dont own any interchangeable hooks. I have knitting needles, and crochet hooks but none that go together. This is a great giveaway. Thanks for sharing.
I have, but it has been years.
I have done some Tunisian Crochet and am, at this very moment, using an interchanable hook. ๐
I have never used interchangeable hooks before but I have done Tunisian simple stitch a few times
I have not used interchangeable hooks but I have used interchangeable needle sets and I love them! I also have never made a Tunisian blanket but interchangeable Tunisian hooks have been on my list for awhile! Great giveaway !
I have learned some of the Tunisian stitches. I use the older style of Tunisian hooks, but would love an interchangeable set.
Yes to both. I have a set of Denise interchangeable hooks, but would love to have the travel set!
Yes, I have used interchangeable hooks … own a Denise set, but would love this travel set!! I LOVE Tunisian crochet ๐
I LOVE Tunisian crochet and have only had the opportunity to use 10″ hooks. I have been dreaming of getting an interchangeable set.
I’ve never used interchangeable crochet hooks before although I have done tunisian crochet once, many many years ago. I would love to try and get back into it though.
This might be the impetus I need to try tunisian crochet again. I’ve only done a single square of it and that was back in crochet class.
I haven’t tried Tunisian or changeable hooks. This set would be a brand new craft for me!
No, I have not.
I have done tunisian crochet but never used interchangeable hooks. I would love to try them. ๐
I am just learning Tunisian crochet and I have never used interchangeable needles. I am looking forward to learning how to use them. Thank you for this wonderful giveaway.
I have done both.
I have done Tunisian crochet in a swatch experimentally, but not a complete project.
I have thought about it, but have never tried it.
I have done Tunisian stitching before without using the correct hook and I have never used interchangeable hooks. It would be an experience of a lifetime that is forsure.
I have used them and like them. Specially if you have a large project and even if not so large. They are a great addition to our tools. Thanks! I’ll probably shared them with someone who wants to learn tunisian. ๐
I have never tried interรงhangeable hooks.
Yes to both questions. The interchangeable set that is use is from Denise and I have purchased extra cables. I like the Denise click as opposed to having to screw something together.
I’m just getting back into crocheting and would love to win these!
have never used interchangeable knit or crochet tools just screwdrivers and drills…lol
Have tried Tunisian and love it, plan to practice more, just tried it twice and did a swatch square.
so many beautiful stitches in that method of crochet. I learned to crochet from my mom and aunts when i was 12….learned 4 sticthes …..and today there are 40,000 it seems… love them all, love learning new stitches and techniques. kep@nbnet.nb.ca is my email. thx for having this contest.

I’ve never tried, because I don’t own the proper tools. Would love to learn!
I love National Crochet Month!!! Can’t believe I just found out about it this year!!!! :0

Yes, I have done Tunisian crochet before and love it.
I have used interchangeable hooks and have done lots of Tunisian crochet. I like the interchangeable hooks with cords. This sets looks like a great way to take Tunisian projects on the go.
I’m a Tunisian crochet junkie and find different uses for interchangeable vs double ended hooks.

I have used the interchangeable hooks for Tunisian crochet before. They are nicer to work with that long straight hooks.

I made a Tunisian crochet dish-/washcloth from a recent Piecework issue, but that’s the only Tunisian crochet project I have–so far–completed. I also have an interchangeable Denise hook which came from a set of knitting needles I got, but haven’t had a chance to use it yet.
i treied doing tunisian but didnt have a hook, so i took a chopstick 1/2 and cut a notch in it and filed it down to use. worked pretty good lol ๐ i would love to get some real ones!! ๐ thanks for the chance!!!
I’ve never used interchangeable hooks before, so this would be a first. I’ve been interested in learning Tunisian, but haven’t worked on any so far.
