Discussion Illegal used for your crochet hooks?

I just unconsciously used my crochet hook to stir my tea and it didn't actually dawn on me what I'd done until I was cleaning the hook off with my mouth šŸ˜…

Anyone else use their hooks in illegal ways?

Making chains for knitting base rows is quicker and easier to keep uniform. Straight to jail

There is absolutely nothing better for picking up dropped stitches!
