Review on 47Pcs Looen Crochet Hooks Set With Storage Case - Ergonomic Comfort Grip Rubbery Handle Yarn Needles Coloured Aluminum DIY Craft Handmake Kit by Gus Pierson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fantastic comfort grip

I have been crocheting for 30 years and didn't realize how hard it has been getting with my arthritis. I love these hooks. The grip is a little larger than clover and fits better at the bottom of the grip and along the back side of the grip. It is so much easier for me to crochet. I have tried several different yarns and have not had the splitting or slipping I get with the clover. Clover are great hooks but I like these even better. I do crochet in the knife position so I don't know how well it is for people who crochet holding it like a pencil. The steel hooks for finer crocheting are not quite the same but I may even be able to crochet doilies again. The actual hook is similar to Boye hooks and that works best for me with the knife position. The price is absolutely fantastic. I don't knit much any more, however, it is nice to have those extras. I always need more scissors and tape measure and I wasn't really aware of the different stitch markers and will be glad to try the curly cues as the safety pin type are harder for me to attach. Plus you get a very nice case to store it all. The only issue I have is that I can't tell which side of the case has my regular hooks. I have put a little dangler on the zipper for that side and now I can find it quickly. I could also put a design on that side to tell it apart. I will admit that there is a residue on the handles when you first get them, but it wears off after 1 hour and the grip is just fantastic. I love, love, love them.

Pros
  • The rubbery handles are easy to clean and maintain, preventing the growth of bacteria or other contaminants
Cons
  • Yarn gets snagged easily
