My Craft Table

 


These are the tools I most use when I crochet my "masterpieces". 

I have a wonderful ceramic bowl for rolled-up balls of yarn. It has a slot on one side for the yarn to slide through. I use it so often, it is seldom off my table. 

When I use heavy yarn like the Bernat blanket yarn, I need an ice cream bucket. A skein that size simply won't fit in anything smaller.

I have older joints, so I like to use bigger hook. I seldom use anything smaller than a K hook. 

N/P hooks are the size I use to do Tunisian entrelac crochet. It looks like this when I get done.

My Q hook is great for doing a fast hospice shawl holding two strands of worsted weight yarn together.



The S hook is for extra bulky yarn like the Bernat blanket yarn. I actually wondered if there was a hook larger than an S and found a T. It is so big, ...well, I tried it on the blanket yarn and it looked like a heavy-duty spider web. I didn't like it. I think you'd need to use it with the roving used for arm knitting,


What do you think a person could do with a T hook? Wow!

Thanks for visiting with me.
