HIJK SOLD to Amanda, Nikki, Carly and O. Maria

(image is clickable)
Sure i've been away at jury duty, and couldn't get to the post office to mail hook orders... but that doesn't mean i didn't have time to make a few hooks..

Here we have a bevy of beauties. From left to right: An H in Mountain Ash, about 6 1/4" long..with real purty grain; An I also in Mountain Ash, that's got some FANTASTIC grain color differential as well as a touch of ribbon near the base end (this hook is WAY pretty!!) and about 6 5/8" long; A J in spalting Aspen of Deadmancrick fame...another beauty with fantastic grain character about 6 3/4" long; And last but FAR from least is a drop dead gorgeous Yew hook in the K for Keen size range that's oh about 7 3/8" long.

Need one or more of these??

Then please send me your bids (specifying which hook(s) you want) at

jimbocrochetwhittler@yahoo.com

I'll try to post bids as they come in, and end this auction next Monday night (April 2nd) 10pm Pacific Std time.

And thank you all for dropping by!

I hope you read this Margret, cause i didn't get to say good by. (for all others who might read this, I had the very real honor of meeting Margret during jury duty).
It was joy to meet you, Margret. We did our best, and in that regard, i think we can feel comfortable in our decision.
But I'm most grateful for meeting and becoming friends with some really great people.
If we don't meet again, i'll be sorry. But regardless.. i wish you all the very best.

Jim
