But there is more to the hook saga coming soon!<br />Thanks Carol - yes the key rings turned out fine, sorry I don't have a GR-8 shuttle so can't give the answer to that question!<br />Thanks Sue Anna for your lovely comment, now apart from the hook story there is a bobbin story which will be in my next post. I can't tell you it yet as the story isn't complete but it does involve the States and it could involve customs!Sally Kersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14689082516157330679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6773419808528632842.post-27385299905231545462010-03-21T15:14:39.962+00:002010-03-21T15:14:39.962+00:00I love everything about the shuttle!

I don't have a problem with the hook and I thought it was manufactured, didn't know they were hand made! 'Im in the garage does fine work!<br />I love your little key rings. Did you try Handy Hands from the States for bobbins?

I probably wouldn't mind a hook made by your dh. Have you ever used the GR-8 shuttle? They have a hand made type hook and I don't mind using that at all. Is your handmade hook similar to the GR-8? Can't wait to get your shuttles. I'm on the list!!Carol Schockling Laweckihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00118585525880689940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6773419808528632842.post-91791736279600612942010-03-20T08:15:10.412+00:002010-03-20T08:15:10.412+00:00What I find hard with the garage-hook is the fact ...What I find hard with the garage-hook is the fact that the bit that does the hooking isn't at the end of the little metal stick. I can't seem to get the hang of it. So my nice new ebony shuttle is to be hookless!<br />Lovely key-rings - I have some which are tiny little hand-knitted jumpers for the "inside keys" - of which we seem to have many.Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02383223698959645624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6773419808528632842.post-25933321108901132502010-03-19T23:53:10.330+00:002010-03-19T23:53:10.330+00:00I agree with Jane about the hooks, once you get us...I agree with Jane about the hooks, once you get used to them they work great. I'd hate for you to waste a bunch of regular hooks for a few of us picky tatters. I like the idea of reusing the hooks from Aeros though.
