craftyhunnypie Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Hi - I recently bought a fimo handled crochet hook & I'm in love with it. I've got some fimo & lots of hooks to have a go with. Do you think I can just squidge some round the handle & bake the hook? Oven will be on low & I will probably put a bit of foil over to stop any browning. Just wondered if anyone had done this before? I want to use up my fimo that has been lying around from a crafty class I went to earlier this year. Thanks.. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluekarin Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Not done it, but have seen things on Facebook where people have done it. Maybe have a go at a not so loved hook and see what happens? Good luck and you must let us know how you got on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted November 11, 2013 Author Share Posted November 11, 2013 It worked! I did 2 teaspoons & a 4mm crochet hook as a test tray. I have to say I am most pleased with the crochet hook. I baked them at 110 degrees C for half an hour on a foil lined tray with ' a foil tent' over. The only thing I'd say is I've got the normal Fimo & it was hard to knead. I'm going to invest in some Fimo soft 7 some of those canes / slices for décor too. Once camera is charged there will be some pics.

bluekarin Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 I am so pleased it worked! Can't wait to see pics. I need to do the same thing, especially for my thinner crochet hooks which can be hard to hold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
