Hi! I made this sample using cotton yarn 8/4 (I think it is equivalent to fingering yarn weight) and a 2.0 mm hook. But this stitch will also work for other weights of yarn. Just choose a hook size that is recommended on the yarn label 🙂

You are most welcome to do that 🙂

Hi, thank you for writing. I am sorry to hear that the ends don’t work up as they should. Unfortunately, I don’t make video tutorials yet. Maybe try to check if in the row, where you make the caramel stitch, your first single crochet is in the very first stitch (see photo in step 8). Then make the caramel stitch in the next stitch (the arrows indicate where you should insert your hook) and then make sure that the next single crochet is in the next stitch (the third stitch in this row). Sometimes it might be hard to see where that “next stitch” is because the caramel stitch is a bit wide and it can hide the stitches that are next to it. It might be that accidentally you skip one stitch along the way. But this is just my guess… I hope that this helps. If not, please feel free to send me some photos to my email ieva@nordichook.com and I will try to figure out where the problem could be.
