PONY HAIRPIN CROCHET STAPLE

A Hairpin Crochet staple is used to make a type of lace with the two-pronged fork and a crochet hook. Yarn is wound around the prongs of the hairpin to form a series of large loops held together by a row of crochet stitches worked into the center. The strips made are joined with the help of a crochet hook to make shawls and bed covers. The plastic keeper helps prevent the work from sliding off the prongs.
