But I found it to be alot of work to have to wittle the wood. So I had a bamboo set that I ordered from ebay and did the unthinkable.....but it worked. I put my hook into a pencil sharpener and sharpened away and got a beautiful point to my hook. I just sanded it down a little to get rid of any roughness and you have to be careful not to over sharpen the hook off.

ReplyDeleteWhat did you do about the other end of the hook? My Knooks are tapered and how did you get the hole for the cord that holds the stitches?
ReplyDeleteThere are few ways, but you could just taper the end and drill a hole through it so you can insert lifeline.
DeleteBrilliant! I've been trying to figure out how to get more knook sizes. Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThank you for an enjoyable blog, I look forward to more of the same in 2017.
