I got mine on Friday and have been playing with it a little since then. As you are all aware I'm sure I LOVE Aero Englands and it will take a lot to beat them in my eyes but this just may do it! It is a really great shuttle - light with a good "feel". I have a Silent Tatter too which I like the feel of but find just too heavy as I keep dropping it - the Pop-A-Bobbin does not have this dropsy effect as it is much lighter. My only tiny criticism (which I have relayed to Sally & Jane already) is that the hook is not a proper crochet hook and I'm finding that a bit awkward but I'm sure that I'll get used to it. Here are a few piccies of the wonderful new addition!
Now all I need is another one to keep it company!

OMGosh! Well, look at you!!! Little miss pop-a-bobbin! LOL! You have every reason to be smug about it! I would ♥ 1 or 2 of those awesome shuttles! :)
Very intriguing!

I can't wait for mine to arrive - it has to come all the way to Australia!Hmmm, another one to keep it company - a matching set, what a good idea! But 'im in the garage has to fill all the first wish-lists before he can make us more!
Thank you for your wonderful remarks and yes, you are the first with a report. I felt the same as you about the hook at first but I soon got used to using it. Like the Aero it doesn't take the small size 11 beads but there again I expect miracles!!! They are very light to use, and are beautifully made, aren't they?
Congratulations Trayna! You are the winner of my One World One Heart giveaway! Please email me your full name and address so I can ship the beads out to you! Email is vintagebluestudio @ yahoo.com
