Coloured Aluminum Good for their price: the whole truth about this product

Good day! It's no secret that I love to crochet. Therefore, last year I decided to please myself with new hooks and ordered them on aliexpress. The choice was long, studied ratings, reviews. As a result, I chose metal and with a wooden handle. I hold the hook incorrectly, so I decided that they would be comfortable for me. And I was not mistaken. The distance from the tip of the hook to the handle is 3.5 cm, the hooks fit well in the hand. The handles are flat, but itโ€™s comfortable to hold them in your hand, they are smooth and pleasant to the touch. In fact, there are 10 hooks from size 0.5 (I donโ€™t know why and how and from what to knit them) to 2.75. The photo lacks 2.5, but it is there, just not at home now. The numbers are marked on the handles, but if you compare the sizes with my Soviet iron hooks, then these are oversized. So you need to focus not on the number, but on the convenience of knitting with one or another yarn. Relative to each other, the sizes differ, which made me happy. Here, for comparison, is the largest hook (2.75) and the smallest (0.5). It can be seen that the head 0.5 is not correctly located relative to the axis of the handle. But it is unlikely to ever be needed, so let it be what it is. The rest of the hooks are all right with this (but it is possible that in other batches the Chinese can screw up in other sizes). The rods and crochet heads are smooth, there are no burrs, so it is a pleasure to knit with them. But since the heads are round and not sharp, it is not convenient to use them for pure cotton yarn (it is better for it when the head is pointed). And for other types of yarn (acrylic, mixed with acrylic, mixed with wool), these hooks are well suited, I really like them. that the 0.5 head is not correctly positioned relative to the axis of the handle.

And for other types of yarn (acrylic, mixed with acrylic, mixed with wool), these hooks are well suited, I really like them. The cost of the set is 4.5 dollars. But there is a nuance - for such a price they come without a cover, so I had to order a storage cover for a dollar or so. And I decided to order these for the sake of thick hooks. The set costs $2. I just saw a photo in a contact in a knitting group where there was a set of bright plastic hooks and decided to get myself the same one. Bright colors are just pleasing to the eye, and the hooks themselves are so cute and pleasant to the touch that you can not even knit them, but just admire)) Actually there are 9 hooks, but 2 hooks came in 4 numbers. According to the dispute, the seller returned some money, especially since one of the twins' head was not finished to the end and they still wouldn't be able to knit. Hook number 4 is very thin, so I canโ€™t imagine much less, because this one bends. So just for the sake of thick hooks, you can order such a set. But it also comes without a case. For this set, I also ordered a similar cover separately. The sizes are different relative to each other, but again, the yarn must be selected individually, and not by number. The numbers are stated from 3 to 10 and 12. The length of the hook is about 15 cm, which is quite optimal. On both sides of the handle there is a flattening for the fingers to make it more comfortable to hold. Conclusion, you can order inexpensive sets of hooks on aliexpress (there are many different options, including copies of famous clovers). There are sets with covers, but they are more expensive. And of course, when ordering there, we must remember that there is a high probability that at least one jamb will be. But for the price the quality is very good.
