  2. Continue single crocheting around the hanger, putting your crochet hook under the hanger like it was the loops of your crochet work. 
  3. Crochet up and around the hook, and fasten off.
  4. Use a bit of hot glue to secure the yarn from sliding off the end of the hook.
  5. Cut about eight inches of yarn, and tie a bow around the base of the hook.
