Crochet Hooks Set, Aluminum Handle Knitting Needles for Arthritic Hands, Crochet Needles for Yarn Craft, Nice Gift for Women

These hooks were much better than I expected for this price. They are very smooth and free of snags. The yarn glides through smoothly. The hook itself is deep and holds the yarn in place very well, without slipping out all the time. They are comfortable to use, not too long or too short and not too thin or too wide. They have the mm number size on the handle and most all patterns will tell you what mm hook to use. The set includes a very nice assortment of sizes to fit most pattern needs. These hooks are every bit as good as brand name hooks and for a much lesser price. Highly recommend.

I don't crochet much except for trims around my knitting projects. The assorted sizes allow me to use the recommended size the pattern calls for without having to purchase them one at a time for almost the same price as this pack. The little pouch they came in is very convenient to keep them all together. The yarn slides along without snagging on burs and rough spots I have dealt with on bamboo hooks so that is a definite improvement. Good value for my money. The quality seems to be excellent and they are comfortable to hold.

The variety of hook sizes for the price is awesome! The amount of different and vibrant colors is also really nice and all the colors are really pretty; it also helps differentiate which sizes are which. The sturdiness of the aluminum is good too. They’re nice and smooth so they don’t excessively grip the yarn (but the yarn does fall off a little sometimes; this could just be beginner issues) but also helps the hook slide right through the ball of yarn.

All the hooks are labelled correctly, size wise, and are made of metal like advertised. There was a range from 9mm to 2mm, and there are half mm sizes as well starting at 7mm and down (i.e. 6.5, 5.5, 4.5, etc.). The colors are vibrant and shiny, and the hooks don't have bumps or sharp edges like other brands. The packaging is very nice and resealable, so you can store the hooks in it for as long as you want. For the price, you definitely get a good deal for how many hooks you get (15). Highly recommend if you're on a budget.

Good value and smooth hooks for easy, snag-free crochet stitching. Comes in its own carry case.

Overall, it's a good starter set for the price. I used my knitting gauge to check the hook sizes. The 8mm, 9mm and 10mm (red, purple and blue hooks below) are all actually 8 mm size. Beyond that, the hooks from 2 mm to 3.5 mm are rather flimsy. I have a steel 1.5 mm hook that's more solid than those in aluminum (shown below). This is a good variety pack as long as you don't do much work with the small sizes or need anything beyond 8 mm. I use this mainly for picking up dropped knit stitches and crochet borders on knit projects.

Simple, well made and effective
