Crochet Amazon Haul! Ergonomic Crochet Hooks That are Detachable?

Рет қаралды 58,830

Күн бұрын

Many of us have used ergonomic crochet hooks, but have you used the ergonomic hook attachments? If you haven't, then you are in luck. I'm back with another Amazon haul crochet hook review!
An ergonomic crochet handle are for people who suffer from hand pain such as carpal tunnel. It allows you to have a looser grip on the crochet hook. This is perfect for me, since I crochet NON STOP I often get hand pain.
I didn't want to buy an entire new set of crochet hooks. So I search on Amazon and found many options that might suite my needs. Listed below are all the products featured in the video.
5 rating: Boye Crochet Dude Ergonomic Aluminum Crochet Handle www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...
3 rating: The Classics 12-Pack Soft Foam Pencil Grips www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...
2 rating: Lacis Ergonomic Handle, for Boye www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...

I mainly use Susan Bates hooks. I have the crochet dude ergo handle also. I pushed some paper towel down in the hole. It helps raise the hook and add that little extra length. It takes a little getting used to but it really does relieve stress on your hand and wrist.

Hi, I wanted to clarify something about the wood egg thing. Crochet hooks are made of two different types of metal that define their size. Aluminum hooks are the bigger colorful ones. Steel hooks are the silver itty bitty ones. If you notice on the wood egg thing it states for "steel crochet hooks". The may make another size wood egg for the bigger Aluminum ones. I hope this helps.

It is hard for me to hold my hook without a death grip due to Parkinson' disease. I have about 5 of the Boye green/blue hook holders, and I LOVE them! I keep all of my projects with the holders already loaded with the hook, and I slip a "hook marker" (like a stitch marker but with the hook letter attached - I make them myself) on the project so I know what size it should be in case they get separated.

@poetickayoss 3 жыл бұрын

Hey Girl, I prefer the boye crochet hooks over the susan bates hooks. The working part of the shaft is longer on the boye brand and they have a more tapered point in their hook as compared to susan bates. That boye ergo crochet hook holder is amazing. It made it possible to enjoy the process of crocheting once again. I've bought several over the years and almost all of my hooks have the little rubber stoppers, regardless of brand. I almost never crochet without it.

Great job - I've been eyeballin' some grips for a while. I like the green/blue egg with the washers for when I use any hook smaller then a 4. I've also seen some handmade ones on Etsy, that were wooden or polymer clay that looked nice. I saw another crocheter use the ergonomic right handed wooden one - the price was $30.00 (each) for one size grip and fits only Boye/Bates hooks. Whewww, I think when I desperately need one - I'll learn to make one out of polymer clay.
