Re: Get a Handle on your Crochet Hooks

After looking at a bunch of the larger-handled hooks online, I thought I would try to do it myself. What I did was put a very thin coating of glue on one of my plastic hooks (to practice and see how it turned out), then wrap it with yarn. If you keep the wraps even and next to each other, they'll adhere to the hook. You can then coat the first layer of yarn again and wrap again, as many times as you need to make the handle big enough.... granted this covers the measurement on many handles, but for me this works and my aluminum hooks are color-coded anyway....
