Prym Ergonomic Crochet Hook Set, 5 Pc (7mm, L, M, N, O)

Update: Basically I can say the same as before but add: Best crochet hooks EVER! My love for these hooks has multiplied! As I have stated am not a fan of aluminum crochet hooks. My mother-in-law has grown up using aluminum crochet hooks. They are her go to! I still consider myself a beginner due to learning new styles of crocheting! I have been crocheting on and off for 6+ years! I have never broken any hook! I have lost a few which has made me a “hoarder” of these hooks! LOL! So these are my favorites and I still love Rosewood Hooks. Rosewood crochet hooks are more expensive. Part of original review: I started with aluminum hooks. They constantly slipped while I was trying to learn and made my tension and stitches uneven. For those that love Aluminum hooks like my mother-in-law, it is great that they work for you and I am happy for you! They just didn’t for me. 🙁 I first tried using more economical crochet hooks so I went through short aluminum with padding on the handle, long plain aluminum, cheap bamboo (which are better than aluminum) that I sanded or used hand chisels to make smoother. Then I tried some rosewood ones that have a hard resin on them and The PRYM ergonomic hooks. Even plastic hooks that were name brand did not hold up well or had a bump (where the plastic came out of a mold or an extrusion process) that yarn caught onto and broke or split the yarn. None were as consistent as the PRYM and the heavily coated rosewood hooks. PRYM crochet hooks are smooth with no processing bumps on them and longer than the rosewood ones I have! The PRYM Crochet hooks have not broken and they hold the yarn in the hook without slipping. That makes it easier for me not to miss a stitch nor have to constantly worry about my tension. Yes I still have to work on my tension and stitch making but I felt like I didn’t have the hook itself fighting against me. I love these hooks and they are cheaper than my rosewood set. So if you are starting out, go with the PRYM hooks. The only downside is if you buy the sets then you may have to take out the cardboard that gives the Letter designation and write beside the letters the millimeter for each hook. That’s what I did. I just took that little piece of cardboard out and just wrote what millimeter each hook was above where they have have letter designations. Or write the mm destination on box where you put the hook into the box. The larger set came with just a millimeters on them. The smaller set came with just the letter designations on them so that’s why I took the cardboard down and wrote the millimeters on the smaller set, but it looks like now they only sell them with the letter designation for each hook! I probably need to put the letter designation beside the millimeter of each hook onto the cardboard. If I have to ever get another set of these, especially the larger set that I purchased first, I will write the millimeters beside the letter designations. When I purchased the larger hook set hooks were listed as millimeters. Most patterns and Yarns refer to what millimeter hook you need. But some patterns may just have the letter designation on the pattern so it is best to keep the hooks in their boxes and write both designations down just in case. Hopefully this helps someone especially those who are new to crocheting and are trying to work with tension and keeping an equal stitch size. I also do not get wrist fatigue when using them! I cannot tell you how these these hooks have helped me improve and learn crochet on my own like I did through books and YouTube videos. I’m currently working on a circular potholder for my sister with bulky 100% cotton yarn! I hope this helps those like myself who needed to find the best crochet hooks for themselves!

I love these hooks! They feel great and glide smoothly through yarn without snagging. So far I have only used them with acrylic yarn but if they do well with that I am sure they will do great with all yarns. The wider handle feels much more comfortable than the thin metal ones and I like the grip on it as well. I haven't had them long so not sure about long term durability, but so far they seem well made.

These are my absolute FAVORITE crochet hooks! Very comfortable in my hand and I have found I really prefer a plastic hook over aluminum. The plastic slips nicely through stitches especially due to the inline point at the tip. They hold up very well! I use them for all sorts of crochet projects, but mainly amigurumi or other stuffed toys and they can handle some tight tension smoothly. The ergonomic handle is very comfortable and not too thick in my hand. Only thing I miss with the entire line of Prym are US D and I hooks.

The Prym Ergonomics Crochet Hook Set (Large) is a breakthrough for anyone who loves crocheting but struggles with hand fatigue. The quality is excellent, made from lightweight, high performance synthetic material that feels smooth and comfortable to hold. The rubberized grip is a standout feature, reducing strain and making long crochet sessions much more enjoyable. The durability is impressive, with sturdy hooks that glide effortlessly through stitches without bending or breaking. The feel is fantastic, offering a secure yet flexible grip that makes working with different yarn types easy. For the price, this set is a great value, providing five different hook sizes for versatility. The ergonomic design has truly helped me crochet for hours without the usual pain in my hands. If you need comfortable, quality crochet hooks, this set is essential for pain -free crafting! Highly recommended!

I like these hooks although they do tend to not slide well sometimes and make a squeaking noise. Not sure what that's all about. I will say they a massively overpriced for the actual size of the handles and quality of the materials. The only reason I can say I like them is due to the pointed head which allows you to get in-between tight stitches, as I am a tight tension crocheter. I despise bulky round heads. I also can't use metal hooks as the metal temperature hurts my hands. So for those 2 reasons alone I would give them a recommendation. I won't the larger size set just haven't the fund for them yet.

Long shanks. And good size handles for hands with arthritis and other physical issues. Have used most of the sizes work real well. Not sure how they would perform or holdup using double stranded 4 weight yarn. But for that I have my metals ones with rubber grips for comfort. Do not have an F or I size hooks. Had to go to another brand. Contacted company and asked about that. I guess European countries have different yarns and hook sizes. But I am hopeful that maybe in the future the F and I will be available in the US.

Great hooks, very comfortable for the grip and work so well.

As a long-time crocheter who has used many styles of hooks over the years, these Prym brand of ergonomic crochet hooks are the best. They are comfortable in the hand, and lightweight. The availability of this range of sizes is very useful. I like the blue/green/turquoise colors very much. The handles have a comfort grip styling which keeps my right hand from getting tired or cramped, even with many hours of working on projects. As a set they are a good value. It's helpful to have the array of sizes available, especially when working with blanket weight yarns.

I love theses hooks and have bought all sizes twice! I love to crochet but fibromyalgia and arthritis was spoiling my fun. I tried one of these hooks and then I was hooked! They also work so well with wool, and don't snag. They glide easily no matter the yarn or stitch. The design is very comfortable and the grip is good and causes no pain for me.

O gancho dessa agulha e simplesmente maravilhoso, ele entra fácil no trabalho. Só não indico para fazer peças pesadas ou se a pessoa tem um ponto muito apertado pq a agulha é de plástico e pode quebrar devido a força aplicada. Trabalhei uma bolsa com 2 fios de n.6 e a agulha não aguento. Mas para trabalhar um fio e se a pessoa não tiver um ponto muito apertado vale muito comprar essa agulha.

Super crochet avec une bonne tenue en main ergonomique ça facilite

Die Nadeln liegen sehr gut in der Hand. Sie gleiten sehr gut durch die Wolle.

At first I could not stand these hooks, mostly because they were plastic, however there is more to these hooks than meets the eye. Let me backtrack…..I’ve been crocheting for over 20 years, I’m a dedicated clover, Boye, and Tulip fan through and through. However I wanted to try something that was easy on the hands, so I succumbed to the social media pressure and got me those crazy expensive Furls crochet hooks in resin and metal. I thought I hit the jackpot in owning these, however I quickly discarded them as they are heavy and sharp, plus they snagged the yarn/wool a lot. Mainly due to them being in line hooks which I have not figured out the secret to mastering these types of hooks, Susan Bates is the closest I got. Anyhow, after a couple minutes of using the furls and them not feeling to comfortable in my hands, I decided they were just beautiful to look at and nothing more. I purchased these and I had to get over the plastic aspect to them, but let me tell you, they are a dream. Long necks and handles makes the stitches glide smoothly. The handles themselves fit nicely in your hand and they don’t constantly turn and rotate like the Furls. They are more of an oval handle and not completely round. You need that so it stays flat in the palm of your hand if you are using a knife grip. They are light which causes no strain. I highly recommend these hooks, might even purchase a backup set just in case. They are perfect for whipping up with wool or acrylic yarns. I make Afghans and blankets. They are perfect!
