The hashtags are organized into groups in Preview App.

The hashtag groups I recommend if you have a craft or handmade products account are:

I will share Instagram hashtag strategy too.

Let’s start.

Knitting Instagram hashtags

If you have a knitting Instagram account or business: use the ‘Knitting’ hashtag group.

You can use these hashtags only, or you can mix them with other hashtags.

For example, if you have a knitting business, you can use ‘Knitting’ hashtags with ‘Handmade Business’ hashtags.

Or if you sell on Etsy, you can use ‘Etsy’ hashtags.

Crochet Instagram hashtags

If you create crochet creations, use the ‘Crochet’ hashtags.

Just as before, you can use only the ‘Crochet’ hashtags, or you can mix them with other hashtags from other hashtag groups.

Don’t hesitate to mix and match hashtags from different groups.

If you are a weaving artist, use the ‘Weaving’ hashtag group.

This hashtag group has hashtags for weaving artists, design, tapestry, wall decor, techniques and tools.
