Review: Boye Aluminum Ergonomic Handle

[ReniC]

I bought this (Pic) last week while running through WalMart and finally got a chance to try it out last night for a couple of hours.

I paid $6.89 for it which was not too bad on price considering it is all contructed of plastic () and will wear out in time on the area that locks closed. The instructions are clear enough how to assemble the aluminum hooks in. I did have a problem with the hooks being a bit "rattley' inside the handle but was able to crochet as usual. I have to admit, it would take me awhile to get used to it and find my comfort zone, but all in all, it will probably work fine.

If you are a traditionalist when it comes to the shape of hooks, I would not recommend this handle as it can feel awkward. If you are looking for extra comfort like I am always doing because of arthritis, it might work for you. I do believe I prefer wood though.

Happy Hooking my friends!
