A 0,6mm crochet hook, heated in a flame and then the tip gently bent down
to an angle of about 90degrees
with a pair of pliers is a most useful tool. It works better for sewings
because of the angle of the hook and the best is for removing a single pin
out of the lace. It slips in very easily between the other pins and you can
first wiggle the pin to see if you have the right one! The bending is
rather tricky and one can snap off the end of the crochet hook as it is so
fine. So it is not something you offer to do for other people.
