[Nfb-krafters-korner] Tunisian crochet and an OT plug

[Melanie]

Hi Tanya and Henry! I ordered some tunisian hooks too and the ones I got
are metal and very heavy. I thinki f I actually get into tunisian crochet I
might get some bamboo hooks. I love my Chau Goo bamboo regular hooks. I
think this would be an excellent class!
