| Hi Miss Willo,
I didn't see this thread was still going.
I think I do have enough stock for the 24th. But to keep it interesting I offered to take some stuff for a friend.
I'll post some pictures this weekend. | | | | | Moderator Level up: 12%, 135 Points needed |

| Ok, here are the pictures of the baby afghan I made for my cousin's daughter. Alright, so it's a bit big for a newborn, but he/she will get to enjoy it for many years! Mom and dad can even enjoy it! In other words, it's a little bit on the large size.
I laid it on my queen size bed to take pictures.
I also took a close up of the corner so you could see the stitches and placed the Q hook in the picture along side a #2 pencil so you could see how big the Q hook is! | | | | | Senior Member Level up: 40%, 340 Points needed |

| Norene...Isn't that Q hook hard to hold onto?? I've never tried one that big. Does it helps the piece go faster tho ?? It's always nice to know it will be able to be used for along time. That way all that work is in use longer  | | | | | The Following User Says Thank You to debi_nc For This Useful Post: | | | Moderator Level up: 36%, 315 Points needed |

| I don't have a hard time holding the hook, although it feels a little strange at first. And yes, it does make the project go a lot faster!!!  | | | | |
