These rock! Great Knitter’s Repair Hooks I had to ladder down about 15 rows to fix an error I discovered quite after the fact, in a bottom-up shawl that had a short rowed garter stitch section which followed lace. I’d simply picked up a strand from the stitch below which created a pucker, and it showed. Being garter stitch, I had to keep alternating my repair crochet hook from holding it in front of the work to back of the work (or keep turning the work itself), either of which is a recipe for missing a strand. Someone on Ravelry…
Very Handy I use these tools frequently when correcting dropped or incorrect stitches in my knitting. You can find detailed instructions on YouTube. Search for Fix a Stitch tool. That’s a different brand than the Lacis product, but the instructions are the same. I thought long and hard about which brand to purchase. I made the right choice.
Not the best for tunisian Great tool for repairs in knitting, not so great for tunisian crochet. Too short, and the sizes aren’t marked on the hooks, so you’ll have to mark them yourself. I had hoped that this would do for working different size yarns in the round, and it does in a pinch, but it’s far from ideal.
