Comfortable Crochet Hooks: Dots Crochet Hooks are the solution to keep you comfortably stitching throughout your entire project. With longer handles, to avoid rubbing in your palm, and a triangular thumb grip this is the perfect solution for both knife and pencil grip crocheters. The thickness and shape of the thumb grip was an important aspect of the hook, to reduce fatigue while stitching. Easily glides through stitches: Dots Hooks fall right in the middle of being a sharp or dull tip hook. Easily slide under the loop you are working into without splitting a stitch with these semi rounded tapered heads. They have just a long enough throat that will catch your yarn and glide it through your stitches without having to change the way you crochet. Durable: We all know the feeling as we grip our hooks trying to work faster and it breaks or the rubber sleeve comes off the hook. With Dots Hooks you won't have that issue any more. With an aluminum tip molded into the plastic handle you don't have to worry about the tip coming out of breaking like you might with other handle types.
