Good value for money

I was looking for an everyday crochet hook but when I stumbled upon this one I couldn't resist its value. As described these are high quality aluminum hooks and I have not been able to find better value for money hooks from Revain. This is just a product that is well made and serves its purpose.

Pros
  • Boye crochet hooks with optimally smooth jaws and rounded heads ensure precise and professional work.
Cons
  • Available in black only.

I have aluminum hooks from my mother; You will never see a split aluminum hook.

The hook itself is not as deep as

Pros
  • 3 aluminum crochet hooks
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something
