I'm such a beginner but so eager to learn.

Thanks so much!  Means a lot.

I saw that coming when I saw the tutorial.  I figured if Tiffany's was pulling in, mine would too.  I went up a hook size and it looks pretty good.

Thanks Diane.  This is definitely one I am considering.

My thought was a long twin for his bed. Thanks for answering so quickly!   School colors are a challenge: brown and scarlet with black and or white accents.  (If that matters.)

Tiffany Hansen FYI - also bought a regular set of crochet hooks from that same company, and I have the same issue with them being rough and catching yarn.  Much more difficult to smooth given that they are metal, and even then they still do not slide through the yarn the way I think they should.  I would steer away from this brand altogether based on my current experience.  Still looking to find my "favorite/perfect" crochet hook(s).

I also have that same neck light.  Sometimes I find it difficult to get it to aim far enough down to my work without getting blocked by my shirt.  I also find that after awhile my neck gets irritated from wearing for a long time.  Given that, I also wonder if the lit crochet hooks would feel heavy in the hand.  (My family hates the neck light - it is very bright and they say it is like staring at headlights.)

Very Pretty - Most important is that you like them, tho!

I love the unique character of #4, but honestly I am good with anything EXCEPT #3.

Excited!  Sign me up!  Would help if some of the patterns you currently give in words were accompanied by a diagram.  Sometimes I find the diagrams more helpful in understanding exactly where the stitch goes.
