More LadyShuttleMaker Hook Pens on the way....



Hi friends,
I am overwhelmed that these bookmark hook pens are being received so well. I have sold out today but please don't worry I am working on more as you can see.
I cannot rush them because I have to make sure every single one is perfect. Of course just like my shuttles I test them before they go out.

For these new ones I dipped in to my special reserve of decals (some of which are vintage) and I am excited about how they are all turning out.

The hooks are quite small (as one would expect for tatting) the largest being size 10 (very small) and the smallest being size 13 (super tiny) with sizes 11 and 12 in between. I had to go out and search all over town for some hooks. Let me tell you, these are not easy to find. I cleaned the town out and will be working the next few days to offer what I can while I can.
I also have lots of fun ideas for decoration too...because of course each one HAS to be one of a kind!
Please keep checking the shop and the blog for updates.

will you be listing each with the hook size information?

Sherry,

Wow, I can't wait, I need one of these. I am always sitting on it or I can't find it.

But I am not sure of the hook size? The one I am using is #14 (0.5mm). Is this the same numbering system as yours? Or could you recommend one for Size 20 thread?

Krystle, the hook sizes are given in each individual listing. (o:

Wendy, any size I offer are great for size 20.

Hi Sherry! Are they made of a plastic sheath with a stainless steel hook? It doesn't say anywhere what the materials are made of.

K, thanks for the clarification. I was just wondering. That is what it looked like. Very, cool! Wish I had a tatting budget right now! Hopefully you will be still selling these when I can afford one next year! Hee hee!
