Crocheted hats, scarves etc. I refer to myself as a hooker so have no problem with the name being slightly, er, risque!
Thoughts, please?

There is a fashion for"The xxxxx Company" style namings at the moment.

So say you live in Chichester - "The Chichester Crochet Company" or similar.

Just send me a cheque once the profits roll in....

an adjective and an animal seems to be a bit of a business name 'thing' too... could you have a play with that idea? Hooky Hedgehog? Playful Platypus Crochet?

I think you should steer well clear of any hooker references.it may not bother you but why risk alienating potential customers
I think some 'sheep reference is a good idea.
