    Need help finding a tool I have heard of

    Hi, I am looking for the tool that you use to poke holes in the edge of fabric to crochet an edging to the fabric.

    Thank You, Barbara

    are you talking about the sharp crochet hook or a skip stitch blade?

    That's a very good question!! What is a skip stitch blade? does it go on a rotary cutter that you use on fabric? I also have wondered about that. I currently use a darning needle, not ideal!

    Susan M J start looking at patterns for trims while you wait for it. I love mine I use it for fleece baby blankets or even bigger fleece blankets. I have even used it to trim a fleece wheel chair shawl.
