    When you mentioned "blush color", I imagined like a soft pinky color, not......that.
    I only have a 25 mm crochet hook, and I used it to make giant Christmas stockings using sparkly blanket yarn.

    Also malabrigo caracol is a bit pricey and can be difficult to find, but it's superwash merino so it can handle a gentle machine wash in cold. It has a unique texture that almost makes it look scaly from a distance and the colorways are stunning. Plus it's plied with threads so it's less likely to split like that other yarn

    i used some wool ease wow during the holidays to knit up holiday/santa hat tree toppers, took a little getting used to and i believe the knitting needles i had to use were 25mm, they've had wool ease wow around at least since then, i think a little bit before then even, since it made a cool jumbo hat tree topper i bet it could work for other funky decor pieces too

    🖤🖤🖤 I guess they figured these hooks are so big no need for an ergonomic handle. But a similar shape would have been nice. I’m disappointed in the color as well. Not what I would associate with blush. Other than that they seem to function like intended.

    • @AltKnots
      @AltKnots  Год назад

      That’s very true! I’ve continued to test them this week and I’m liking them more and more. Tried it with some acrylic yarn and that’s been my favorite so far🎃

    You really need to make an amigrumi coffin pattern thats large enough to be a pillow/cushion I’ve been searching everywhere for one and can’t find one and it seems like it would be right up your alley and you could use that giant blanket yarn and use the hooks you unboxed in the video too

    I almost hesitate to ask, but I'm sure I'm not the only one who is curious.... I've seen so many of your Furls unboxings and wonder...... how many furls hooks are in your collection? Do you have a spreadsheet to keep track of all the sizes and collections you have????? The jumbo hook is....... MAMMOTH! Oh my goshshshshsh! Yes, the action with big yarn and big hook would pain my hand/wrist/arm!

    • @AltKnots
      @AltKnots  Год назад +1

      I’m not sure of the actual number but I do keep track of which line has which sizes🎃 I’ve found that resting my elbow on a pillow while working with the jumbo hooks has helped with fatigue a bit!

    i love furls, you intruduced them to me back than and i couldnt be happier with my odyssey’s :) but as much as i love this company i have to say that their stock is absolutly awful and they should definately work on improving that. whats the point of releasing 4new odyssey colors a year when nobody is able to buy those? it took me about a year to be able to get a 9 and 10mm in navy and black and good luck to anyone who has their eyes on the lime or the turquoise-it feels like they basically dont get a restock at all within the last year. its not cool imo

    Alright , I have same yarns like that and no hooks like these. I'll have to get the big hook for sure now. I was making excuses not to get the hook, it' goes with the yarn. I would rather have a different color hook. The blush color ain't blushing for me.

    • @AltKnots
