I have seen a long-arm quilter using a notion that he uses to pick out quilting (some that didn't work out right) while the quilt is on the frame. It reminded me of a skinny crochet hook. Does anyone know what I'm talking about, and if so, could you direct me to website that sells them? Thanks.

It is easy due to such small size. Just wiggle the hook into the fabric and then hook onto the errant thread and pullout. Amazon has then for like 2 bucks. I H T H's
