Hey my favourite knitting girl....I might buy this as I still haven't found the perfect crochet pattern for little heads. Is the yarn the Wool Ease thick and quick?? I am assuming you use chunky yarn as the hook is so big. But I could be totally wrong.....thank you!
ReplyDeleteHey there! The yarn isn't Thick N Quick, it's the regular Wool Ease. You hold the yarn double throughout. That said, you could easily substitute the TNQ yarn for holding worsted weight yarn double!
DeleteThat sounds good! I will give it a try! We don't get the regular Wool Ease here. (Should I move???)
