My hooks have been super busy lately. Did a set of towel toppers for my daughter. Used Walmart brand, Mainstay, yarn. Have no complaints and it is very reasonable for similar quantity as RHSS or Caron. Did get the impression that is was a bit smaller than a normal worsted weight - 4 as I was able to use a G hook very comfortable. None the less am pleased with the yarn and the project. Used my
"Fudge Towel Topper" pattern, which is available on my Raverly store here: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/fudge-towel-topper-version-2.
Have another set to do for her, same design and will use same yarn. Work on those in a few days.
Below is a progress of my Calla Lily, Have it about completed now, Starched and drying. Made some butterflies to go with them, they are glued to the wire and drying. Wouldn't you know what I thought I had was a piece of Styrofoam to use to hold them up, wrong.
Anyway will post a completed version in a couple of days. Flower is 20 thread and 9 steel, measures about 2.5". Nice thing about my pattern can use about anything I want and just stop or add rounds to get to the size wanted. Will be writing it soon,
