TULIPEtimo Rose Crochet Hook, Size 10.5/6.5mm

I have been crocheting for a few years now (long time knitter) and struggle with wrist pain and specifically my fingers going numb when I crochet. I noticed on a crochet forum someone had asked about ergonomic hooks, and I immediately began doing my own research. The popular ones seem to be Clover (Soft Touch and Amour) and Furls, but I noticed a few crocheters swore by Tulip Etimo. After checking reviews on Amazon, I bought this hook. I also bought a couple of Furls hooks (streamline and odyssey) as well as a Clover Amour to test them all out because hey, you really can't have too many hooks :) The Tulips are easily my favorite, although they do all seem to help with the numbness and wrist pain. However, the Tulips flow so easily, they have literally made me a better crocheter. My stitches and chains are more even. My first test with the Tulip was a basket made with three strands of cotton twine. I had made two of these already with regular hooks, and not only was it torture on my wrist and hand but they turned out somewhat floppy becasue I could not get the stitches tight. Enter my new Tulip, and my next basket was nice and tight and NO WRIST PAIN. Compared to the Clover Amour, I felt the Tulip was still much smoother-it really is like butter and you just don't have to grip it so hard. The Furls Streamline is also nice, and the Odyssey is very smooth albeit somewhat heaviver (I don't mind but others might). Bottom line, Tulip is now my go-to hook and I have several sizes. Oh, and the pink is bonus-each one is a slightly different shade-so pretty!! Don't hesitate to buy these hooks, your hands will thank you.

A really good bang for your buck, I love these hooks the yarn glides on and off of it! Super easy to use! And it's my favorite color so it's a win win for me

I bought the 6.5mm as the pattern's suggested hook, And as alternate to the 6.5mm I purchased the 6.0mm in case I needed it to achieve the measurements I needed. I've been using Boye & Bates hooks happily for decades. But, I didn't know how the hook would affect my grip and results. I had just gotten over 3/4th through a sweater and found it was not fitting. After a reasonable wrestle to try to adjust what was completed, I had only two choices: 1) make it too small and give it to someone else, or 2) frog it. I decided to frog it. I retried swatches with different hooks and found the old hooks produced a good swatch, just as before. But early on I could see the sweater was not coming out - AGAIN. So, I started reading about different hooks and decided to cross my fingers and order the Tulip. It is very comfortable even though it is not as long as I would normally desire. That does not matter. The shaft, grip and handle are really easy on my hands. I have a "trigger finger" on my left hand and use a therapy glove so I was concerned the handle would inhibit free hand/finger movement. It does not. I immediately created a good swatch and found the head worked through stitches with ease. I'm making a clothing item and I want the measurement to be true to the pattern. I could kick myself for not picking up the Tulip a long time ago. It helps me control tension and maintain consistency which is super important when measurements matter. I found I was "noticing" and adjusting whenever my tension would change/lapse. From now on I can use my other hooks for scarves, blankets, etc. But, Tulip must have some magic in it because it really seems to response when I change my grip or tension. I tend to stop a second and get back on track. I love it!

I bought my wife a set of Tulip crochet hooks for Christmas, and she loves them. The set didn't include every hook size available, so I added this one, as it's a size she commonly uses.

I am happy with this hook. Comfortable to hold. Smooth metal hook. No rough edge at the seam. Not as light as Clover but I recommend this hook for anyone that needs comfort while crocheting

These are the very best hooks I have owned. No more pains in my hand or elbow. I can now crochet for longer periods without cramps or pain. It’s worth every penny. Thank you Tulip for creating these hooks.

I like a nice tight stitch when making amigurumi, and struggled to find the “sweet spot” when I started using bernat blanket yarn. Etimo hooks are the best in my opinion, Tulip is just a great company run by dedicated and quality-conscious people. So far, this is the best hook and size I’ve found for a tight single crochet in the round with chenille yarn.

Super suaves

These are the best hooks I've ever used. Love them, comfortable, right length, smooth. I have a bag of hooks and found these are the best ones ever.

Background: I had to stop crocheting 2 years ago due to lupus related pain in my hands. I noticed that I was OK working on a project for around 30-60 minutes, then the pain would kick in and take days to fade. I tried a couple of hooks recommended for arthritis suffers but they made very little difference.Product: A friend recently mentioned Tulip hooks and whilst I was sceptical, I’ve desperately missed crochet so thought I’d give it a chance and order a couple to try out. When they arrived I was even more sceptical- they just look like any other hook.Now, I don’t know whether it’s the weight of the hooks, the shape of the handle, or just general wizardry, but I’ve not had a single incident of pain using these hooks. I can work on a project for 4+ hours without issue.I’m so incredibly pleased with them that I’m saving to invest in the full set. Anyone reading this who has similar problems with pain in their hands, I strongly recommend buying one or two in your most used hook sizes and giving them a try. They might seem overpriced but if it means you can continue with a hobby that you love, it’s worth investing in yourself.

Este gancho me gusto mas que otro gris que compre para probar. No se que tanto cambie la forma pero me acomode mejor con este.

De las mejores que he tenido, cuesta volver a usar las otras!!
