    I had such a laugh at the story of your mom's eye falling out 😅 The toiletpaper cover is actually kind of cute.
    I don't have any of the Lauren Espy books. For some reason, I really have no desire to make crochet food items. And even though I want ALL the crochet books out there, they are slightly lower on my wish list. I did enjoy your review of the books 😊

Do the back of the safety eyes poke through from one side to the other ???

      I didn’t know about skein spiders reversibles. I just recently found her. I’ll have to check those out. And no, my backs didn’t poke through, I was curious about that too, but those particular eyes, have a very odd back that covers up the majority of the eye stem. That might be why, also the plush yarn. I think that thickness hides too.
