Etimo Crochet Hook, Size 10/6.00mm

I’ve been wanting to try this hook for years, but I ended up buying a set of Clover Amours. Then I recently saw a good review of these hooks on a Facebook group and decided to buy one myself. It’s very similar to my Clover hook, but with a few differences. The head is slightly more pointy on the Tulip, which I like. That was one gripe about the Clover. The head isn’t quite as pointy as I need sometimes. The Clover has a nice silky silicone grip, but the Tulip grip feels more comfortable for my hold. I have some kind of pencil hold. The Tulip grip is a bit thinner and just feels more comfy. I’m not sure if the Tulip hook is lighter, or if it is just balanced differently, but overall it feels much more comfortable. At least this 6mm one anyway. However, there is one big problem. The letters on the back of the hook that says Tulip Japan. They stick out and due to my specific hold, they rub on the side of my knuckle. Because of that, I am thinking about returning the hooks. I have had a few issues with the word Japan on the back of the Clover, but the addition of the word Tulip on these just makes it a lot worse. If I kept this hook for some reason I would have to sand down the words. But I don’t know if I want to bother. So overall I think I would prefer these hooks to the Clover if I didn’t have such a problem with the words sticking up on the back.

This is a really nice crochet hook, but I still prefer Clover Amour hooks.

Can crochet hours at a time without discomfort.

This hook seems easier to use, slides like silk, easy to keep gauge.

The item came on time and was well wrapped. It is so comfortable to use! The hook itself is so smooth and the handle fits my hand well. The fact that it has a thumb rest is very important to me so I am especially pleased with that feature. The red color is really attractive --more like a cranberry shade but I love it since Im a fan of both colors.

I have wanted to try the Etimo hook for a while. When I discovered it in red, I had to get it. The color is beautiful. Very comfortable and I can crochet for hours and my hand doesnt get tired. I like it just as much as my Furls. Will purchase me and complete a set.

Crocheting

My other hook in this size was just half an inch too short and 2as irritating my palm when making a stuffed dino. This was perfect replacement

This hook was just what I needed it helps me crochet longer because my hands dont hurt.
