Re: "Second Hemp Yarn Crochet Project (2 Images)"
@mouseless thank you! I started first project with 6.0mm hook but realized going smaller helps a bunch so I worked my way down to 4.5mm any smaller and the hook has a really hard time catching the full thread. The yarn is indeed bulky and difficult to work with due to hemp strands being stronger than steel in tensile strength and having almost no give. If one of the individual strands catches while forming the slipnot its an almost certain reset. After awhile my hands started to hurt so lately I have been focusing on improving tensioning/techinque without forcing the thread to reduce hand strain as much as possible.
