Wet Felting Kit
I am personally am big into wet felting so I of course need to recommend a wet felting kit.

A wraps per inch tool is incredibly handy for both crocheters and knitters to figure out how wide their yarn is (yarn gauge). I have one of these and use it to check the yarn gauge of my hand spun yarn and if I lose the information on my store bought yarn.
Yarn Dyeing Kit
This yarn dyeing kit could be a super fun gift for a crocheter or knitter who always struggles to find the perfect yarn. It’s like a little treasure chest of possibilities, allowing them to create unique and custom colors that perfectly match their vision.
