Crochet Needle Holder

The challenge

The Shepherd Center strives to increase patients' independence when performing hobbies or fun activities.

Who it helps

Intended users of the Crochet needle holder are individuals with limited hand dexterity. This could lead to difficulty holding and pinching items like a crochet needle.

How it works

The crochet needle holder allows patients to not have to hold the crochet needle themselves. Instead the needle is securely mounted and has an adjustable hole for varying needle size.

The solution being offered is a Loc Line attachment that clamps down on the crochet needle.
