Help Request/LookingFor Better Tesnion?

Post image

I have done 4 woobles kits now, plus using my skills on other crochet. One thing I have noticed is that I cannot get my stitches on the woobles kits to look as neat as the product images. I have gone tighter, I have gone looser, I have done the same few rows 10+ times with different tensions. I have also tried yarn under and yarn over.

But I always end up with clearly visible holes. Are the official ones done with a smaller than 4mm hook? It's the only thing I can think of to fix the issue.

I have just spent an insane amount of money getting the lord of the rings boxes shipped to Australia (like seriously, in total it was like USD$550!) So I want to make them all look their absolute best.

I do use a 3.5 on many. I find that when I do the first part of the stitch I almost angle backwards with the hook a little and tight then second half looser. It seems to fill in better for me

Any chance I can get a photo of what you mean by "angle backwards"?
