Review on πŸŽ€ Addi Mini Swing 1.75mm Black: A High-Quality Knitting Needle for Precise and Delicate Projects by Sasha Hsiao

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Great ergonomic hook but poor grip that breaks under heavy use

I love and hate these hooks at the same time. They are excellent from an ergonomic point of view, but their quality is questionable. If you crochet tightly this can be a problem as there is no CORE in the thinnest part of the handle, just a tiny bit of plastic and then a rubberized coating so they are VERY easy to snap in half if you grip the handle too tightly while crocheting . I really think the manufacturer should lengthen the metal bar in this part of the handle so they can better withstand heavy use. I've broken sooo many of these hooks but my hand really needs an ergonomic grip and I haven't found a more comfortable ergonomic grip yet. Gluing them together with super glue also doesn't work effectively. If they fixed this quality issue I would give this hook 5 stars.
