Do you collect Crochet Hooks?
I know I have quite a few of them.
Metal Hooks.
And I have often wondered,
who invented the Crochet hook.
So I started reading
and investigating.
"Little is known of crochets early history.
It seems likely that the earliest crochet
was made using fingers, rather than the
hooks used today. There are theories that
crochet could have existed as early as
1500 BC, as part of nuns work,
which included needlepoint lace
and bobbin lace."
You can read the entire article at the link above
But there are so many different hooks out there,
how do I know which on to use?
Some have different styles of heads?
Some are made of wood or bamboo?
Some even have special handles?
Some even light up!
And some are quite fancy.
But how do I choose which hook to use?
You need the right size hook for your project,
as stated in your pattern.
But Type of Hook,
really depends on your preference.
What type of Hook do you prefer?
