Review on ๐Ÿงถ Colorful Buytra 11-Piece Aluminum Tunisian Afghan Crochet Hooks Set, 2mm to 8mm by Wendy Rodriguez

Revainrating 3 out of 5

First impression, second chance

Just received my order and tried on the Tunisian pattern for sizing. I only learned this stitch a few days ago and was dying to have the right tools to make it work. Since I had more than 1 Afghan needle, I went hunting. 1 - they were too expensive for what I wanted. I wanted a multi size which I found but none of them were right for the price I was ready to post a project. And it wouldn't be economical to buy just one, reverse and end up paying a lot more for single copies to risk duplicates or, heaven forbid, triplicate copies. It was easy to find them at this price! Appearance seemed normal to me. On the other hand, I haven't really taken the time to study its cosmetic properties. The size I particularly needed was 7mm and I haven't had it with regular hooks yet. Since my goal was a Tunisian hook, I had no doubts that I would get the hook length right. I immediately opened my package and tried to make a gauge with new hooks. Unfortunately, the hook caught in several places and broke my yarn. The pulsing showed burrs which I personally couldn't fix :-(. I'm giving 3 stars with the intention of upgrading if I get a replacement. I don't care what brand the product is, I just want that it works .
