Thank you Janet
Anne
Do you experiment to decide if you should use one strand or two? I’m never sure. Something thin like curly lox would probably be 2 but Briggs & Little type would probably be one strand. Am I thinking correctly? Yarn types can be confusing to us newbies! Thanks for your weekly pointers & help!

Thinner usual I want two strands. I do experiment though and do not follow a rule about it.

If you need detail go with one if not use two. You can always pull out the yarn if you don’t like the look of it doubled.

Many years ago, my friend Janet taught me to hook a hand a day.
