4.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent, very comfortable--sizes not true; order size down,
By Finicky Consumer (Southern California, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Crochet Lite Crochet Hooks-Size G 4.5mm
I bought one of these at first and have now purchased all sizes available.
They are great to use in low light and/or with dark yarns. They don't really help any in decent light with light yarn, but that's not what they're made for. They are Sooooooooo comfortable to use with the larger, non-slip place to hold. What I noticed right off is that the "business end" is a little short. I guess I use more of the hook than I thought. At first, I kept hitting the handle. I did get used to it quite quickly, though, and no longer do that. If you do a lot of roll stitches, it probably wouldn't be a good idea. The other issue, which isn't one as long as you realize it, is that the sizes are not true. If you need a size I, for example, order a size H; for size H, order size G. Unfortunately, they don't come larger than a size J. Hopefully, the company will expand its line. Overall, I'm really happy with them and would buy more sizes if they were available. I only gave a 4-star rating because of the short usable shank and the limitation of sizes available.

Great crochet hook,

This review is from: The Crochet Lite Crochet Hooks-Size G 4.5mm
I love these crochet hooks even though I don't use the light very much. I like the size and shape of handle, good for those with arthric hands, easier to grasp and I like the colors they come in, very nice

Crochet Lite size G = 4.5mm,
This review is from: The Crochet Lite Crochet Hooks-Size G 4.5mm
I purchased the Crochet Lite Hook, size G, mainly because it's 4.5mm, most G hooks are 4mm. I've been crocheting over 40 years; 95% of the time I use Boye aluminum hooks. The plastic Crochet Lite was a little hard to get used to because yarn doesn't slide off of it like it does with an aluminum hook. Also the shank seemed a little short, but I soon got used to it. Like Boye crochet hooks, the Crochet Lite is a tapered hook. Another type of hook is called inline. Bates hooks are inline hooks. An inline hook does not taper at the throat.
This hook is light in weight, not heavy at all. The wider handle makes it easy to hold if you have arthritis in your fingers. The switch is on the side of the handle & doesn't get in the way. Batteries come with the Crochet Lite hook. The shaft lights up to provide some light in the immediate area you're crocheting. Depending on how dark the room is, I might have to hold the shaft above the area I'm crocheting to see a few of the stitches in the row. Most of the time, I don't need to use the light. It does come in handy when the room is dark & helps make seeing the stitches a little easier. Once in a while, when I'm using a very dark yarn, I will turn the light on to help me see the stitches too. All in all, the Crochet Lite hook is handy for crocheting in low-light areas or for helping see the stitches in dark yarn. The wide handle makes it easier for someone with arthritis to hold.
