Types of Crochet Hooks

Crochet hooks come in a variety of materials, shapes, and finishes — each offering a slightly different feel in the hand and on the yarn:

• Aluminium & steel hooks – Smooth, durable, and perfect for speed crocheting.

• Wooden & bamboo hooks – Lightweight, warm to the touch, and ideal for those who prefer a gentler grip.

• Ergonomic hooks – Designed for comfort, especially during long crochet sessions.

• Tunisian & double-ended hooks – Perfect for more specialised techniques and versatile projects.

Choosing the Right Hook Size

The hook size you choose depends on your yarn weight and pattern requirements:

• Smaller hooks (2mm–3.5mm) work beautifully with finer yarns like 2ply and 4ply.

• Medium hooks (3.5mm–5.5mm) are ideal for 8ply (DK) and 10ply yarns.

• Larger hooks (6mm+) are perfect for bulky and super-chunky yarns.

Always check your pattern’s recommended hook size and make a gauge swatch to ensure your tension is correct.

Accessories for Crocheters

Alongside our premium hooks, we stock a wide range of crochet accessories to make your projects easier and more enjoyable:

• Stitch markers for tracking your rounds and pattern repeats

• Row counters for keeping tabs on progress

• Measuring tools to ensure accurate sizing

• Cases and storage solutions to keep hooks and notions neatly organised

Whether you’re crafting intricate lace or bold, chunky blankets, having the right tools makes all the difference.

FAQs

What is the best crochet hook for beginners?

Ergonomic crochet hooks or hooks with soft grips are often recommended for beginners, as they reduce hand strain and provide better control.

What size crochet hook should I use?

Your hook size depends on the yarn weight and your pattern. For finer yarns, use smaller hooks (2mm–3.5mm); for DK and worsted yarns, medium hooks (3.5mm–5.5mm) work best; and for chunky yarns, go for 6mm or larger.

Are bamboo crochet hooks better than metal?

It depends on preference. Bamboo hooks offer a warmer, lighter grip, while metal hooks glide more smoothly and are ideal for fast crocheting.

Can I use knitting needles instead of crochet hooks?

No — knitting and crochet use different tools and techniques. Knitting needles can’t replace hooks, but you can combine both crafts in certain projects for creative textures.
