Do you have a set of crochet hooks that you love? I used to love the Clover Amour crochet hooks, used them almost all the time. I even have 2 of most sizes! You never know when one might disappear with a project lol These hooks crochet smoothly, no snagging if the yarn is good yarn, they feel good in my hand, & have nice colors.
A few years ago I purchased a set of Tulip hooks because many crocheters were raving about them. They are not my favorite. They grab the yarn different, and the yarn snags more often or I miss a yarn over more often with the tulip hooks. They do feel the same in my hand as the clover hooks, they are the same length as well.
A few weeks ago I saw these hooks posted in a FB group and went to check them out. I'm a sucker for polka dots lol
They were being sold with or without a case, so I bought the set with the case. it has enough space for 2 sets of hooks, so the polka dot ones are on one side and the clover/tulip hooks I used the most are on the other side. There are also 2 pockets on the inside for scissors and stitch markers etc.
LOVE LOVE LOVE them! They crochet exactly like a Clover hook, but they are longer! At first I thought it would be weird seeing part of the hook all the time, but I got used to it. After using these for a couple of weeks I tried one of my clover hooks, it just felt weird using a short hook!
The polka dot hooks seem to be very popular on wecrochet.com, they are always on back order. If you do need a new set of hooks I would suggest signing up at wecrochet.com and getting on the list for notification when they are back in stock. If you love your Clover hooks, you will love these :)
Ordered the dots hooks last night. (also got roped into buying some yarn so I'd get free shipping!)
I just received my Dot Hooks and so far I really like them!!!
I still love my Clover Armour hooks. I do have another set of Boye hooks that hubby bought for me 8 or 9 years ago, still like them but I still love the Clover hooks better.
