Crafts
Sculpted crochet hooks, knitting needles, seam rippers, spindles and the tools that make hours of making easier on the hands.
The collection
For the Fiber Arts
Makers hold their tools for hours. A turned and sculpted handle can be shaped to the hand that will use it: a waist for the fingers, a swell for the palm, a weight that settles rather than tires. The colour is the joy; the shape is the point.
From the studio
Pieces that have left the lathe
Each of these exists once. Open any piece for its story, then commission one in its spirit.
Jade Sculpted Hook
Sculpted for the hand that crochets for hours: a waist for the fingers and a swell for the palm.
Aurora Sculpted Hook
Northern-light colours in a handle shaped to the grip of the person who will use it.
Moonstone Sculpted Hook
Soft grey, carved in a gentle spiral.
Tidepool Fiber Tool
A tide pool in the palm: blue resin around spalted burl.
Hourglass Hook
An hourglass waist so the fingers always know where they are.
Sunset Sculpt
Hand-sculpted after turning, so it fits one grip better than any other.

Questions
Good questions, honest answers
Can a handle be shaped for arthritis or a particular grip?
That is one of the best reasons to commission one. Tell the concierge how you hold your hook or needle, and where it hurts after an hour, and William can shape the handle around it.
Are the hook heads interchangeable?
Many handles are built around standard hook heads in a range of sizes. Ask in your brief and William will confirm the options for the design you like.
Do you make matched sets?
Yes: hooks in graduated sizes, needles with a matching case, or a full set turned from the same blank so every piece belongs together.
The design concierge
A gallery that listens
Talk with the DeVito Gallery concierge, an AI that speaks in William's own voice. It asks the questions he would ask, then hands him your brief.
- Who the piece is for, and the moment it marks
- What they love: writing, cooking, the shave, the pipe, the craft
- The woods, colours and finishes you are drawn to
- The budget you have in mind, never a hard sell
You will see what it can and cannot do before the microphone turns on. Conversations are recorded so William can follow up.
Commissions
Begin a commission
Tell William who it is for, what they love, and what you have in mind. He reads every brief himself and replies personally.
