Have you seen this awesome cuff over at Kootoyoo?
It is a simple crochet method that looks so great! I love this.
Here is the one I made last night.
It's called a broomstick lace and it is made with a crochet hook and a super huge knitting needle. The problem is, I don't have a huge knitting needle and I couldn't justify spending money on a needle I would probably never use again (or rarely). So, I hunted around the house to find something that would work in it's place. And.... This is what I used...
Yes... a turkey baster. It worked really well, actually! Why buy a needle that I really do not need when I can use what I have on hand (even if my husband thinks I'm crazy)?
Here is part one of the video I used to learn how to do this stitch. Super easy!
