I wish I never bought these hooks. There is SO MUCH wrong with them, where do I start??
1) the price!! These are ridiculously expensive, and I may have been able to justify the price if they were good hooks, but there aren’t.
2) the cables! So horrible! And what burns me even more is that I had to spend another $15 + tax & shipping to get swivel cables, when the swivels are what should come with the hooks in the first place. Every time I try to use them, they constantly turn in my hand and force me to readjust at every stitch!
3) hook sizing!! The head of the hook is the proper size, however, the thumb rest is SIGNIFICANTLY larger. So after working about 8-10 stitches, they start getting stuck at the thumb rest, and then they open even more to accommodate the this part which is stretching out my stitches!!
I would give anything to get my $200+ back!! Ugh!
I picked 4 skeins of this up during the original drop in August and just now got around to using it. I'm so sad I didn't make something with it sonner because I need minimum three more garments made of this. There is zero splitting, it's super soft and wears wonderfully. I made the Flock Vest by Andrea Mowery with this yarn and it flew off the needles. Start to finish in 2 weeks! I'm so in love with it I just bought more yarn to make a second version for my sister. My fall/ winter knitting plans will now revolve around this yarn.
I just used my first Sewrella hand cream in Peony Petals - it reminds me of taking a spring walk and all the floral scents along the way. It’s creamy and absorbs fast and the smell is not over powering - I can’t wait to try her other scents. This hand cream will be a part of my crochet bag going forward!
I love receiving your products because they are beautiful, well packaged. I love how much effort goes into the quality of your products and is important to me.
