I used to have a small tool which I was told was called a "sweater

can't find one. Does anyone know how I can get one?

I've searched a long time for one of these, too. Had an old one for
many years, which finally boke. Anyway, just a couple of months ago,
I found one for sale in a little quilt shop about an hour and half
from my home. It's called a "Knit Picker", and it's made by
Prym-Dritz. Has a blue plastic handle, with a clear plastic cap.
Looks a lot like their seam rippers, when the cap is on, but inside is
the tiny latch hook that you are looking for. Only cost a dollar or
two, I don't remember for sure.

I just did a Google search for "Knit Picker" and Dritz, and here is
the link I found:

I'm not sure if this site actually sells things, or if you have to
find a retailer in your area, but at least this will give you the
product number and information that you can take to your local store
and ask them to order it.
