Boye Crochet Set Alum Sz Notion, Hook sizes: 3.125-6.5 mm, US D-K, Assorted

I was so happy to find a complete set of Boye aluminum crochet hooks. They are my favorite!

These hooks give great stitch definition. They are my durable, reliable, everydaygo to hooks These are the ones I take everywhere. I have an expensive set of hooks but, I'd never let them leave the house.

I have tried other fancy expensive crochet hooks, but these hooks are my old faithful hooks that I feel very comfortable with.

Boye are some of my favorite hooks. The yarn glides over the hook smoothly and the head is just the right size to go through your stitches without getting caught or splitting the yarn. I have some of my mom's hooks that she passed on to me. They last forever. They are a great budget find and they come in so many fun colors.

I bought these to help when I loose another one..lol.. these are my favorite for brand for the tapper of the head as well as the not sharp tip.

This is the first time I purchase any crochet tools, soon don't have much terms of comparison.. but I'm pleased with these! Was able to make two hats

These were smooth to work with!

I only needed a size E. Well, I thought I did - turns out I really needed the D. Anyway, at the time I bought these, they were $3.99 and same day delivery, so now I have 8 more hooks! (They are $10.76 today, which is still pretty good. And same day shipping. Woo hoo!)Most of my hooks are the Boye brand, and I love them. They are light and sturdy and smooth. I have some plastic ones because right after 9/11, it was hard to get metal sticks on airplanes ("Thirty Dead on Flight after Crochet Hook Wielding Madman Freaks Out over Number of Pretzels in Bag!!") Plastic is horrible and almost never completely smooth. (Don't argue with me about this - I've had bad experiences!) I've never had a problem with Boye, and after crocheting an afghan 4'x5', I still haven't had a problem.So, if you think you might need a hook or two that are in the D-K range, plop this in your cart. Check it every once in a while to see if the price goes down, and snag it when it does. (My local craft stores sell this set in the $10-12 range, and if you get their coupons, you can usually get it for less.)
