The egg is probably for menting and the hook looks like a loop turner, that's if it has a moving part, that catches a piece of the fabric, does it?Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05353168680765436637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30569327.post-89252173769267639022011-07-07T02:10:09.630+02:002011-07-07T02:10:09.630+02:00My Omi had one similar to that she used it for dar...My Omi had one similar to that she used it for darning fine knit work.

I donĀ“t know what the egg is for; to cut the yarn in the right length we used a sort of a ruler. <br /><br />Have a good day!Billyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07566459269797239267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30569327.post-86459408614522094052011-07-05T19:39:34.316+02:002011-07-05T19:39:34.316+02:00I am from Germany and have never seen such thing i...I am from Germany and have never seen such thing in my life :) <br />But I think it could be someting for darning socks, too!<br />MartinaGanz und Garnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01091467271750185682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30569327.post-83061645120586916752011-07-05T18:26:00.341+02:002011-07-05T18:26:00.341+02:00The little hook is a "knit-picker" and ...The little hook is a "knit-picker" and used to fix snags in knit articles - to pull the thread to the back side of the work. I haven't seen this kind of combination but it makes sense. It looks like a darning egg and I'm sure socks got snags that could be fixed that way too.
