I have tried every crochet hook under the sun - clover, Susan bates, Prym, Boye, furls, etc. And truly, these are the best hooks I have ever used. The handle provides comfort no matter what size hook you’re using. But the showstopper is the hook material - the brushed matte finish is a game changer. The yarn truly slides so smoothly and easily. I bought these just about 2 years ago and to this day, they are my favorite. My forever go-to hook. Thank you Ashleigh and the Sewrella team for making a far superior product to any on the market!
