Tools and Hardware Reviews of Bamboo Crochet Hooks 10 sizes F-NCustomer Review: Not usable except for baby/sock yarns Summary: 1 Stars
I spent more time trying to keep the yarn hooked than I did crocheting! The dip in the hook isn't deep enough to hold onto the yarn-I was using dk and struggling. They are also a little rough at first-I oiled mine with a beeswax/olive oil combo I use for wood toys and that fixed it and made them very smooth. You get what you pay for!
Customer Review: Pleasantly surprised Summary: 5 Stars
Love these. They don't look like much, but the minute I started crocheting, I was hooked. Pun intended! They are light and feel amazing in my hand. I will never go back to metal hooks.
Customer Review: ok Summary: 2 Stars
I actually bought this item to add $$ to my order to get free shipping - however the needles are hard to catch the yarn as you are trying to crochet. I taught myself to crochet years ago, and currently I am using cotton thread to make dishcloths for Christmas gifts. I will currently bought more boyt needles at Walmart - I really like those,
Customer Review: pretty good hooks, but yarn didn't slide easily Summary: 3 Stars
These are a good basic crochet hook, with a decently shaped end that catches the yarn satisfactorily, although I had some trouble with the yarn splitting as I finished stitches. (To be fair, the yarn I'm working with right now splits easily.) I received 10 hooks (not 5 like another reviewer) and like the feel of the bamboo. However, when I first tried them the surface was a little tacky (sticky?) and the yarn didn't slide as smoothly as I'd like. We put a light coat of urethane on them (have a spray gun for some construction we're doing out back) and that helped the situation. I still prefer my Susan Bates metal hooks, as they slide easily, catch the yarn firmly, and rarely split. If you like crocheting at a nice sedate pace, and/or prefer the feel of bamboo to the feel of metal, these would do just fine.
