Thanks so much for the share! Love it!

When you're wrapping your yarn, is the hook able to move easily, or is it a bit difficult to move? Let your yarn and hook move freely with each other.

I love this idea! I will definitely have to do it!

Hi and welcome! Yes, please share a pic of the afghan and we will help you figure it out! Hope you enjoy the site :)

Hi & welcome! Grab a comfy chair and some snackies because you're going to be here a while :)

I likey :) Now, I personally would prefer them to have a sparkle. I would even do them in the thread that has the extra little tinsel-type thread in it.

Welcome! I'm a rather new member as well, but I'm loving every second here!

Thanks so much, @Lee1313, but Shaddy sent me one I'm very pleased with...even though it's not what I had in mind. I will keep you in mind for the future if I need another one :)

Yes ma'am...to get rid of your squeak, rub your hook with wax paper :) I do this with all of my hooks and my knitting needles on a regular basis. You'd be amazed at how much smoother everything...

What stitch was the body of the item worked up in? if it was SC, then I do as mentioned above. If it's DC, then I do 2 SC within the stitch. You really just have to do trial and error and eyeball...

@Shaddy--still not what I have in my head, but it's super gorgeous! Thank you!
