My mom's neighbor gave these things to me. I believe they may have belonged to her mother. In the first photo, I know the thing on the left is a tatting shuttle but what is the thing on the right and what is it for? In the bottom photo, anyone know what these are? They came in a box of crochet hooks.

I think the middle one in the bottom photo is for lace making.
Could the one on the right be for latch hook? |
top two look like there off weaving machine, one on bottom right looks like old button hook I think the other two are for weaving also
|
Topo left is a tatting shuttle Bottom right is a button hook that they used to help button their shoes.

You're right, in the top photo, the one on the left is a tatting shuttle. The one on the right I would guess is a darning egg.
In the bottom photo, you have a sewing awl, a something or another that I *think* might be for weaving, and on the right you have a button hook for buttoning up those old fashioned boots from the 1800's... |

The one on the left is for making holes I believe. The one in the middle for lacing, and the one on the right is a button hoo, for the old button shoes I believe.

That was really nice of your neighbor.

The hook looks like my Great Grandma's button hook.
