BeCraftee Crochet Hooks Kit - 12 Piece Set Extra-Long Crocheting Needles with Soft, Ergonomic Rubber Grips and 12 Hook Sizes - Knitting & Crochet Supplies for Beginners, Comfortable/Easy to Use

The hooks are very comfortable to use although you may have to adjust the way you hold your hooks slightly from the way you hold a non-ergo hook. The end of the hook functions perfectly with no snags and proper gripping to pull the yarn through your knots. I use the "J" quite a bit and wish that the kit would have included a "K" as I am nearly blind and need the larger size now; but, many of the girls in our Prayer Shawl Ministry use the smaller sizes and love them. (I have squeezed in a "K" into my kit quite comfortably.) The case and accessories are wonderful and very well thought out. It keeps everything at your finger tips if you are traveling or working on your projects away from home. I like the metal darning needles better than the plastic ones that come with the kit; but, the plastic will do in a pinch and they have a nice, smooth finish as well. I substituted my metal needles which came in a nice little tube for the plastic ones and donated them to our group. (The darning needles are not for sewing; you will need sewing needles for that.) The darning needles come in the three most popular sizes are in the carry pouch with the rest of your accessories. The accessories are everything you could want or need...place markers, tape measure, needle sizer, the list goes on. This is an amazing and very affordable kit...better and more complete than the $75 kits I have seen elsewhere. I have not had any problems with the needles coming out of the grips; but, figured if I did I could always put them back in with a drop of glue. The rubber handles are every bit as good as the more expensive ones. I bought two kits to test out...one for me, and one for my friend...and will be buying several more for our group for Christmas gifts.

I liked the variety of sizes. The rubberized handles are VERY comforting to any who crochets. The rubber on the handles make crocheting easier and hands do not tire easily. Better grip for fingers and use of various types of yarn. Well made. The hooks are designed to be a bit longer in length. This makes crocheting for long periods of time very enjoyable. Great deal. I recommend to serious crochet crafters to give these a try. They will NOT disappoint.

I bought this over a year ago and just love it. This is my "go-to" crochet kit for those projects that I know will require endurance. Often times crochet hooks dig into my palms and I cannot crochet for more than an hour at most. These are so comfortable and the space between the hook and the ergonomic handle has plenty of space to do increase or decrease stitches that can have 6-8 stitches on the hook at the same time.I've crocheted for many years and have no preference to the shape of the throat (inline or taper). I've learned to crochet with what I have access to at the time (you know how it goes; 1. hooks are with another project far away from you location, 2. the store you ran to only has this type of hook, 3. my cat (or pet of your choosing) played with the hook and now no one can find it even after rearranging all the furniture, etc.).The handle is the most important part for me. There is nothing more annoying than when the handle digs into the palm of your hand. Yes, even some ergonomic handles are so hard that my palm will get sore from using the hooks. Not this set! To run a test for different size hands various friends and family have tried this set and all love them and I've given them the link so they can buy some too. Our 14 yr old granddaughter has shown an interest in crocheting and if she continues I'll buy this set as a gift for her too.This set is a gem and usually when purchased at this price the scissors, stitch markers, ruler, case, something (or all things in the kit) will be horrible. Nope, not this one. Not only are the hooks sturdy and comfortable, but the case is sturdy (it will not stand up to a hurricane, but it can take being in a project bag), the scissors fold in such a way that transporting is safe and some of the best I've used. The stitch markers are the typical stitch markers, but are perfect for the average crochet project. This little kit has all a person would need for the average project and is a great set for someone who needs a set that will travel easily. The only thing I added was a retractable tape measure as I do a lot of afghan work that requires measurements longer than measure tools provided in the kit.The only bummer for me is our indoor magician of a cat actually did walk off with two of my hooks from this kit when I was doing a pooling technique scarf (which we have literally moved every piece of furniture hunting and the hooks are still lost to this very day and to make matters worse they were the ever so common H and J hooks). But that is not the seller's fault that I can't keep my cat out of my crocheting and knitting bags! My only wish is they would make a separate kit with some of the larger hooks because I do have some projects that use hooks like P and Q with bulky yarns.Order this kit as this great price, you will not be disappointed. But please don't bring it to my house where the magician cat will make a hook or two disappear if you leave the project alone for 5 minutes. :)

I've been crocheting for a couple years now and needed more ergonomic grip. These are perfect. They've helped with wrist cramps but also aren't as bulky as many other crochet hooks.I've crocheted many items with thin, thick and course yarn and have never had trouble with the hooks breaking.

I started to crochet recently. It was a bit of a spur-of-the-moment whim, so I went to my local craft store and purchased yarn and a single size H hook which was prescribed for the pattern in which I was interested. I ordered this set to supplement my supplies and liked the idea of having everything I needed in a handy case.This set gets full marks for comfortable handles on the hooks and a great case. The scissors are sharp and ideally sized and the other assorted supplies are fantastic. I have swapped out the plastic tapestry needles for sharper metal just because they are my preference, but the plastic ones will do the job of weaving in your ends. The metal ones I bought came in a little plastic tube that fits perfectly in the zippered section in the case. I would gift this to anyone i know who is interested in starting to crochet. It's inexpensive for what you get and includes everything you need to get started.My one complaint is that compared to the single H hook I purchased, the metal on these hooks doesn't let the yarn slide nearly as well. It's not the yarn, it's the hook. The single H hook I bought is a different brand and must have some sort of coating that makes the yarn slide on it like a dream. With the hooks in this set, there is constant friction that slows progress and makes these difficult to use. I'll probably just pull the hooks out and replace them with the ones I prefer since I really like the case.
