You linked this pattern in your cat lovers roundup. What material is safest for cats so they don’t get sick from chewing on it and so they don’t easily rip it apart? (I don’t have a cat myself; thinking of making this or another item in your roundup for a relative.)

Thanks for your advice and for your roundup and free patterns. (Still need to try out last year’s TCAL blanket for which I downloaded all the hexagons!)

I just bought the spiral pattern and can’t find it. I can’t usually see where they downloaded but this one didn’t seem to even download. Thanks Deb

In reply to Marianne.

Hello Marianne, I picked the hook because it was the right size for the yarn. For tunisian crochet, we usually use a hook that is 2 sizes larger than the one recommended on the yarn label.

I used cotton yarn for the demonstration, I have now switched to using acrylics or wool since I am able to film more easily and, as you said, those yarns don’t seem like they are sticking to the hook.

Thank you for stopping by and leaving me a comment!

Best,
Arunima

Dear Arunima, the Spiral Rug is very interesting (by the way I don’t like round rugs) but your hook is not good for the demonstration. I think it’s too big and stick to your yarn.

In reply to Emily. @Emily, You can crochet over them when you join rows of the next round. For the final round, you can crochet your border over them to hide them.

What happens to the loops on the back made when changing colors?

In reply to Rachel. @Rachel, I haven't tried it with thicker yarn but I think this pattern will work as it is. I would increase or decrease the number of single crochet stitches in the magic ring depending on whether the fabric ruffles or is a little too stretched after making about 2 rounds. Let me know if you still have questions.
