TRY THIS SIMPLE COATHANGER
THE LACE REQUIRED CAN BE OBTAINED FROM US.
10 METRES FOR $5.00 (enough for 2 hangers )
The phrase "Knitting with Lace" is a bit
misleading as rather than knit using the lace instead of wool you still use the wool,
however, you knit the Lace in with the wool.
These patterns are very simple patterns, and easy to do. The wire coat hanger also has the
benefit of using up those dry cleaners coat hangers that seem to breed in the wardrobe. It
turns them into a useful item and stops the way that they put a line in the trousers or
slacks that you hang on them.
