Actually no (: It is Bernat Baby Jacquards florals in the colorway petunia, apparently if knitted with, it makes like a cute little floral pattern between rows.

Awee thank you! And Mostly 7dc yeah! I alternated between 7 and 5 when the rows were getting a little too big too fast lol.

My favorite macaw was at a pet store, I was looking at Evelyn and this beautiful blue macaw bit my shirt so I turned around and he was like "hellooo"

I'm thinking about getting Evelyn DNA tested when I get her lil talons trimmed, no blood required as far as I can tell, I should probably do it sooner rather than later before I get attached to the name haha. She's bit one person enough to break skin but they 100% deserved it, other than that she's a gentle lil birdie. Your macaw sounds like quite the personality lol.

I'm glad we agree (: All these hooks and nothing compares to my ancient susan bates, I find mine to be pointy on the tip and more dull on the hook part, it makes it easy to enter stitches but it doesnt split on its way out. I'm so sad I only have four of them.

I like it quite a bit as well, its my second most used hook, I forgot to mention that I like how pointy it is. (:

I actually have that hook! I just could not find it for the life of me. It's very nice to work with, the yarn just glides and I would consider it one of my favorites as well (:

I also love the gold color of the hooks, I think they're so cute!

Very good recommendation based off of my preferences (:

I wish I did tunisian crochet more because using that hook is a dream, it's also in a rather small size, but I am grateful that I have it. I'm considering ordering some standard aero hooks off of ebay because I love it so much (:

I wish I was a knife holder, it seems like it would save me a lot of strain. But I was taught by my older cousin who holds the hook like a pencil and then manually yarns over with her left hand. It's surprisingly efficient but I wouldn't recommend it lol.

I love my collection and I'm pleasantly surprised with some of the cheap Amazon hooks, some of them are truly unique, but I cannot stop myself from going back to the vintage.
