Black Gold Crochet Hooks Needles for Arthritic Hands, 2.0-6.0mm Crochet Hook Set Ergonomic Soft Grips Knitting Hook for Crochet Yarn Craft, Aluminum Knitting Crocheting Supplies Kit for Knitter

good quality & i like the feel. only thing is that the numbers may fade on the handles

I like to keep the crochet hook for each WIP in my project bag. It eliminates hook size confusion and having to hunt for the necessary hook. However there are frequently several ongoing projects using the same size hook, in this case (Rainbow Ripple Baby Blanket) 5.5mm. Since joann is now defunct it is challenging to purchase a single hook, but I happened across this set at a very reasonable price. I REALLY LIKE these: the handle is comfortable with a nicely placed grip, the shaft is 20mm from the end of the throat and is accurately sized at 5.5mm, the aluminum head/shaft is very smooth and the end of the head is nicely rounded. Generally I only use “in-line” crochet hooks where the tip of the head runs in a straight line with the shaft. In this case (photo 3) there is an offset of 3mm but the hook is so smooth and well shaped that there is no splitting a stitch on the pull through. Can HIGHLY RECOMMEND these hooks for their ease of use and price.

Nice but short the rubber slips off & the numbers rub off of the rubber end

I love to crochet but sometimes my wrist don't. I needed some hooks that were not very heavy, and there aren't. I like that they have a non slip grip material, I can see the size of the hook I am using instead of it being embossed in the hook. The hooks to me are short, no problem with that, and they were afforable. I like that they came in a few colors and a variety of sizes. I will be getting more.

Bought two in error, great customer service-returned one. I have tendinitis and the larger grip and non slip material on the handle really makes a difference when I use them.

I'm always on the look out for a new addition to my crochet hook collections. One of my favorite set of hooks are the Tulip, and love the look of the red set. So, I wanted to satisfy my own curiosity how this set compared. Side by side, they are the same height. Both hooks have the Boyd favoured tapered style, and both are made with different ergonomic materials for the handle. You can google to learn about the anatomy of a crochet hook, and I will use that to reflect if there are any differences below. Point/Tip - Coopay: slightly rounded, Tulip: pointed Lip/Mouth - Coopay: rounded and curved, Tulip: angular/straight Throat/Neck - Coopay: thin and sharply tapered Tulip: slightly tapered Shaft/Shank - Coopay: 3.5cm. The paint used for the metal creates a slight drag Tulip: 3.5cm. Smooth finish, no drag Thumb rest - Coopay: 1.5cm wide, and 4.75cm long, feel is fleshy, and slightly pliable, Tulip: 1cm wide, 5cm long, feel is smooth and rigid Handle - Coopay: 5cm long and 1cm wide sharp ridge where the thumb rest joins with the handle, Tulip: tapers from the thumb rest to .75mm My project is a basket with a medley of stitches to see how the hook holds up. I am using worsted weight Super Saver yarn, and stitches include: magic ring, sc, hdc, dc, chain stitches, jasmine star stitch, crocheting in the third loop, cluster stitches, front post dc. I used the 10/0 6.0mm hook for my project. One of the first things I noticed was the feel of the handle, it is warm, not cool, and the fingers just dont glide over it. I washed these in warm sudsy water to remove any residue that might have been left over from the machines that made them... that did not remove that feel, so it is in the material itself. Its not an overly bad feeling, I'm just used to either using the aluminum handles, tulip or clover hooks anymore. However, the drag that is on the aluminum material is a serious problem. It may not be so bad if you are a loose crocheter, which is typical for a beginner, however when you are better at gauging your tension and using the hook correctly the drag stretches out the stitch slightly. It may just require getting used to it, but to be honest... I will probably give this set away to someone that is just learning and doing only the basic stitches without clusters or multi loops on the shaft. Hopefully this very honest review helps other to decide to buy this or skip it. If it is a parent gifting this for a stocking stuffer for a beginner, totally recommend it! However for those of us who are older and more experienced... I would go with another brand that I know and trust.

Really great product even for a beginner like myself. Very easy to use, comfortable for long periods, and easy packaging for put away

Easy and sleek

Liegen sehr gut am Finger. 1 A sehr gut. Für Häkeln und stricken.

Ottimo prodotto

These seem to be a dupe of another well known product but they are pretty good quality and work well. Very similar in size to the other product, and the hook sizes are accurate. They have a decent sized shaft that is smooth to work with as well, and the handle and thumb rest are comfortable to hold

Leider entsprechen diese Häkelnadeln nicht meinem Anspruch. Sie sind nicht so sauber gearbeitet wie die ebenfalls roten Nadeln der Firma T.... Man mag denken, dass es keinen Unterschied gibt und fällt auf das gleiche Aussehen herein. Beim Gebrauch macht sich der Unterschied aber deutlich bmerkbar. Mit diesen Hakelnadeln zieht man Fäden ... Nächstes Mal nehme ich also doch wieder die der anderen Firma, selbst wenn ein Haken dort nur minimal weniger kostet als hier der 9 St.-Satz.

Nice and smoothly. Helps reducing my hand aching.
