A note for Pinterest users: I have noticed an uptick in Pinterest traffic from pins I did not create nor are they related to the content of my blog. As an avid Pinterest user myself, I understand how frustrating it is to click a pin only to find completely unrelated content on the other side. It is a Pinterest-wide problem and a bane to all bloggers. These pins are bot-created (for what reasons I cannot even fathom). I do my best to find the original sources of the pin images and post the links in the Pin comments to help you find what you are looking for, but these pins are so numerous it can be difficult to stay on top of it. Knotted Up In String is a crochet blog, so if you do happen to like crochet, feel free to stick around. I’m happy to have you!

Guess what! It’s Fun Fact Friday! Join me on the first Friday of the month to learn something new about fiber arts!

Today’s fun fact: the word crochet is derived from old french, meaning ‘small hook.’ I don’t know about then, but now crochet hooks come in a variety of sizes. Tiny hooks, chunky hook, small hooks, long hooks. But to specifically honor ‘small hooks’ my favorite small hook projects are amigurumi. What about you? What are your favorite small hook projects?
