Thanks to Knitaly I found the essential key word to understand and use the knitting fork Ingrid offered me, the k-word is "Hairpin".Looking for "Hairpin Looms", "Hairpin crochet" and "Hairpin patterns" I found all I need to know to correctly use this amazing tool and make wonderful scarves and shawls in no time. Horray! I feel I will be able to make some lovely scarves for Vik's project! :-)

Thanks for sharing the links - now I got it, about how the hairpin works!
ReplyDeleteYou should be excited! I just started learning hairpin myself, and I was really shocked at how easy and pretty it is. It seems like a great way to show off beautiful yarn or crochet ribbon. How is it coming along for you?
ReplyDeleteI am so thrilled to find your blog. I have been searching everywhere for something on hairpin lace. I have a new loom but I have hard a hard time finding information.
ReplyDeleteLinda I had an hard time too finding all the info, so I collected them alla here. I'm glad it helps!!
