[Nfb-krafters-korner] help with yarn

[Zimmer, Cindy]

Just saw this post.  So find some yarn that is thinner, but still feels very soft.  Does that pattern by chance ask you to crochet/knit with two strands?  If so, just use one.

I used a smaller hook and the bootie is too thick.  Thanks for your input.

Hello,
It may not be the yarn, it may be that you crochet more loosely than the gauge needed for the pattern. Try going down 2 hook sizes and use the same yarn.
