Hankering for Yarn

Very large crochet hooks: A shawl crocheted with the Gulliver Hook

by Noreen on December 23rd, 2006

I was curious to see if the humoungous Gulliver hook was going to be worthwhile …..

so I crocheted a VERY thick and quick shawl with unspun roving held together with a strand of yarn.

Is it ever warm!

I am going to make one with strands of yarn held together, to see how that goes.

I’m also working on a string bag, which I want to be really loopy, so I’ve just started it with only 2 strands held together:

I love string bags, and have designed 2 booklets of designs for them (Knitted String Bags and Crocheted String Bags)

They’re available on my website at:

Bags

(they use regular size hooks, needles and yarn)  :)

Hugs all round,

Merry Christmas!
