Hook Material?

[RusticOkie]

I always use aluminum or steel hooks. Probably because that is what I learned on and what I am used to. I hate plastic hooks and I hate Susan bates hooks.

I chose soft plastic...my favorite everyday hooks are Clover Soft Touch ergo hooks.

Holly wood!!! It is my new favorite wood. Bought a hook from Daystar on ebay and LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!! It is made of white holly and smooth as silk. Yarn glides through it like a knife through butter.

I actually love the new hooks from Susan Bates. They have a aluminum head and then a nice bamboo handle. They are just wonderful to crochet with and I don't get sore hands from using them, like I do with a regular hook.

 

 

It just fits so nicely in my hand. I will not use anything else now.

(Although I'm finding myself highly tempted to buy the new Bates glow-in-the-dark hooks!)
