Boye Crochet Master Steel and Aluminum Crochet Hooks Set - 24 hooks

I didn't buy these hooks thinking they'd be amazing, comfortable, and easy on the hands. They're metal and fairly small - smaller than a pencil. If I use these for too long, my hand does start to cramp up a bit, but I'm also a newbie and haven't developed as much endurance in my hands for the repetitive motions.That being said, these hooks are very useful if you're just starting out! You get basically every hook you could need to trying out doily patterns, and almost every hook you could need when working with medium weight yarns. Beyond this set, I've just purchased six hooks for working with bulky and super bulky yarns, and I feel pretty confident that I have every hook that I'll want for any project that I find.These hooks are accessibly priced for entering into the hobby, and once you've used these for a while you should have an idea of if you enjoy crochet enough to invest in more comfortable hooks (plus, you'll have a good idea of which hooks you use most often, and the way you hold your hook while working, which can be very important to choosing more ergonomic hook styles).My mother has had a set of these hooks since sometime in the late 70's or early 80's, and she still uses them exclusively. Her case is the grey-blue shown, but I've now purchased two sets (one for me and a friend) and gotten a maroon case and a Pepto pink case. It seems like a luck of the draw based on the seller.So, TL;DR, these are great inexpensive hooks to get anyone started in crochet. A lot of people buy this set and never bother to upgrade, while others will later choose to purchase more ergonomic hooks. Either way, these are great for getting into crochet to learn if you like the hobby before shelling out a bunch of money on other hook styles.

I was really happy to find that the pouch is very durable and made well. I feel I can confidently say that this case will last me a nice long time. The hooks themselves are well crafted and the finishes on them are flawless. Naturally, as steel and aluminum, they aren't forgiving on your fingers (especially if you have arthritis, as I do) but I prefer the sturdiness of metal hooks that will last and can take a little abuse. I can always buy the comfort grips for them if I really need to. The case is also big enough to hold my travel size gingham scissors, markers, and stitch counter(mine is rectangular and relatively flatish) as well as a couple extra hooks (they tend to float around of course, watch out if you store extra hooks like I do, they WILL try to escape!). Overall, I would definitely purchase it again and would 100% recommend.

I was hesitant to use these needles. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and when I first started knitting, I had aluminum needles and they were so slippery, they made my hands hurt to try and hold on to the needles, so I switched to wooden needles and they work great. When I wanted to learn to crochet, I read great reviews about these needles and opted to give them a try, even though I haven't had the greatest experience with aluminum.These work great! They are very comfortable to hold and they don't slip and slide everywhere like I expected them to. They hold yarn well and allow for easy transition of stitches. I'm new to crocheting so I don't know if this is standard, but I wish the hook was a little bit deeper but I think learning how to grab yarn properly will come with time.All in all, this is a great set. I love having all the sizes I need without needing to buy individual needles, it saves money and time. The case is great, keeping everything in one place is wonderful, I don't have to worry about losing or misplacing a needle. Not to mention they are colorful and pretty. This was a great investment.

I am new to crochet and have no idea what size hooks are most often used or which hook I might need for 'that ' yarn I saw in the thrift store, the one that lost its label many moons ago. This cute pink package has everything I need. Each time an instructional video tells me to select a specific hook I have it right there ready and my project is completed without a trip to the store buying yet another size hook.There are 24 hooks in total, size from 0.75. up to the largest 6.5mm each with its own secure place. The little pink padded wallet holds them all in order of size and whilst you can only see one side of the wallet with the larger of the hooks in the product image, there is a second side, equally full of silver colored smaller sized hooks. The wallet zips together securely keeping them all in one convenient place.If you are an old hand getting back into crochet you will probably want to choose the sizes you know you will use but for a beginner or someone who wants to try a little of everything from cotton lace to big funky flower cushions it is ideal.

Bought this Boye set because readers said it was made in USA, and just the case was made in China. So wrong, the complete set is made in China. BUT, what I really wanted was a nice set of the smaller stainless steel hooks and this set really delivers on that. It includes the tiniest hook imaginable, perfect for adding beads to your projects.

The hot pink case is made well for the Boye needles, and the bright color of the case will make it easy to find in a dark yarn bag. The hooks are smooth and light weigh. Amazon has the best price for the complete set. I am very happy with my purchase.

I have just started writing some reviews, and basically because of this Item. Since I read other peoples reviews I wanted people to know that this case & set of hooks are Wonderful! I carry them with me pretty much everywhere I go. If I decide to do thread work, it is covered. If I feel like working on afghans or throws, that is covered too. The case is well made, and I even stash a blunt needle in the center area. Overall, I would definitely recommend this product - both hook & case to anyone wanting variety and a nice way to keep them altogether.

gli uncinetti sono molto buoni e il filato scorre bene,ma mancano alcuni numeri di uncinetti per quello che costano!

Ok

I have always used Boye hooks and never found a better brand. This purchase is a gift for my daughter who is just beginning to learn the art.

Ich liebe Boye Nadeln, das Arbeiten ist super und problemlos, kein hängenbleiben etc. Einfach nur Super. Auswahl der Grössen find ich auch gut. Danke für die prompte Lieferung. Kann ich nur empfehlen.👍 leider sind die kleinen Grössen (silber) für mich zu kurz, um richtig damit zu arbeiten (Messerhäkler). Die Großen sind einfach toll.

Muy contento con todo. Rápido, eficiente y muy formal. El producto un 10. Lo recomiendo a todo el que se inicie en este mundo y quiera tener un buen set de agujas tan completo
