I began doing Hairpin Lace when on bus trips. I bought my Hairpin Lace Loom at Hobby Lobby cost 3.49 I use two different colors of yarn You can go online and get directions on how to do it. You make strips and then crotchet them together. I use a #8 crotchet hook. I usually make 34 strips, either 240 stitches or 270 stitches. depending on how long you want the afghan. It also makes a difference on the heft of your yarn. The first one I made the yarn was 4 ply. it was 34 strips wide and 240 stitches it measures 42 x 60. the last one I used 'I love this yarn' from Hobby Lobby it does not say what ply it is. It must not be 4 ply as it is 34 strips wide and 270 stitches long and it measures 36 x 64. I have made lovely smaller one for babies.
another fun project is doing a wall hanging - I made the Walking in a Winter Wonderland. I did it in blues.
