I know I've seen the answer to this question many many many moons ago,
but what on earth is the hook end of a dololly for? I can think of a
couple uses, in fact I just used it this afternoon, but I'm curious
about the "official" intention.
My mum gave me one yesterday afternoon. Pretty little thing, and
obviously quite useful as well!

You run the wire loop end of the DoLolly under the back of existing
stitches. Next you put the hook end through the loop and use it to pull
your short fiber tail(s) back through the loop. Finally, you pull the
loop (carrying the thread tails) back under the stitch backs, burying
the loose thread tails underneath the stitch backs. Personally, I
hardly ever use the hook end -- I just use my fingernails to push or
pull the loose thread tails through the loop end. CiaoMeow >^;;^<

ah! How elegant - I've been using tweezers and my trusty needle nose
pliers for similar purpose, with the aid of a handy ORT :)
Thanks!
