sylvia:think:
You can buy what’s called kitchen cotton which is much thicker, like yarn, and you’d use a large crochet hook. Look for Sugar and Cream, Peaches and cream, Lion Cotton, or Bernat’s Handicrafter cotton.
hi
actually i used peaches and cream
so i will buy kitchen cotton
thanks for the reply
sylvia
Peaches and cream IS the same as kitchen cotton. And it will stretch, it’s supposed to in a market bag. I thought you meant you used thin crochet thread, not the yarn.
hi
then i must have used to big a hook
because it really stretch out
sylvia
What size did you use?
