Are they P" and or what letter, I do not have my size chart handy, Assuming P, make scarves using eyelash yarn, fun fur, you really need huge hooks for that stuff. Or using more than one strand of 4ply, many heavy weight patterns call for hold to strands of yarn and using th bigger hooks makes it so much simpler. Also working with any real thick yarns, pattern ideas are endless, poncho's, afghans, etc. have fun

I used one of those hooks for a Homespun throw. It was a pattern from the label.

It was worked with two strands of yarn. If I remember correctly sc or maybe hdc.

I made this shrug with a P hook, I think it is 12mm. I really like it ... a little hot for this time of the year but perfect to wear on top of a T-shirt
