  1. Have you ever used Lily's Sugar 'n' Cream cotton yarns? I'm having a hard time trying to determine what size hook is best to use. Would love to make my daughter a granny square handbag I saw on Pinterest, but would love some tips! Love your site!

    1. Hi Ann. I've used Lily's a few times - I used size 'I' and size 'J' hooks with it. Lily's Sugar n Cream is a thicker cotton. I prefer Creme de le Creme cotton or Hobby Lobby's 'I Love This Cotton' (which is a bit more expensive), but they are softer and easier to crochet with. :)
