I've lived most of my life with metal hooks and needles so bamboo doesn't work for me, the stitches just don't slide as easily as metal. I have spent many years both knitting and crocheting and these days I have problems with my hands. I have found Tunisian knitting to be something I can knit for hours with my hands without any problems. My only problem was finding hooks I like, there aren't any in my local hobby lobby. I am knitting a tunisian style sweater in rounds (YouTube video) and these 32 inches are actually not enough. I have found what I believe to be the best set available, the Knitter's Pride Dreamz Interchangeable Tunisian Hook Set. They have hooks of any size you want, either as a set or individually. They are wooden but very polished and the seams slip easily. With the Knitter's Pride kit you can make the cord as long or as short as you like. If like me you are new to Tunisian crochet and need some crochet hooks check this out, best I have found so far.
