I used to use Amour hooks but after I tried one Tulip, I fell in love. For my hands and crochet style they are perfect for me. It has taken me a few years, but I now have an (almost) complete set of my tulips. I have arthritis and as it has progressed, even the amour hooks would hurt too soon for my happiness. The tulips let me crochet just a bit longer, and as long as I want to as long as I keep the pace slower

[@agachwosta3101]

I also have a bunch of Amours plus 2 Etimos, and I love how light they feel :)

[@TerryJ950]

After many years of crocheting, I only use Amour hooks and don’t even own any others. A few years ago, I needed a 3mm hook for a crochet along using fingering weight cotton and could not find one locally. I decided to try a Tulip Etimo Red which I had been hearing great things about. I found the size I needed on eBay (not cheap) and have to say that it is my favorite hook of all time. Since then, I have made several large projects with that hook, and it’s a workhorse, especially with cotton. I would love to have a whole set, but can’t justify it since the Amours are still great.

[@somethinginteresting2202]

You could sell you Amour set and put the money toward Tulips….. having great tools brings more pleasure to the process.

[@jlkulit]

Thank you for finally reviewing these!!! - I have both the Grey/Gold & the Red set and YYYAAASSSS - I HAD to buy them because Red is my favorite color. The holder it comes in is built to last - had mine now for 2 years and they have been through hell & back and they're still rockin, no tears, nothing's coming off/broken. Hubby asked Y I have so many hooks in so many colors and shapes and I said - sometimes your tools can help inspire and motivate you. I think my hooks are sexy so therefore it makes me want to crochet more. Who else is with me???

[@loveshates8049]

Saw them online and though: no i already bought one hook of every size. I don't want doubles... and then I saw your video. What can I say... looks like I have doubles of certain sizes now. I had them for ca 2 weeks now and don't even want to use my usual hooks anymore because they are so much easier in my right wrist. Due to the flatter head they are easier for me to pull trough the loops which makes all the difference for me ❤

[@needleandhomestead]

I’ve tried everything from Furls to Clover Amour and i like different hooks for different projects. But hands down tulip have become my go to for any project!!! They are incredibly comfortable to hold and glide effortlessly through any yarn I’ve tossed on them.

[@ashwalls509]

Hi all! I've had this exact set for about 2 and a half years now and have invested in the larger sizes so here's how they lasts long term! I noticed Tori was concerned on the hook sizes wearing away but for me they've shown absolutely no signs of wear, even on my 5.00mm, my most used hook, everything is still totally legible and not peeled/faded at all. The cloth case has held up well too, it has taken an indent from where I wrap the string around it but no problems with the integrity of the case at all. Also, the fact that they're red makes them WORLDS easier to find when they vanish in the middle of a project lol, I've never lost one!

[@marshall9093]

I wish the case were big enough to accommodate the extra hooks whether you bought them or not.

[@PocketPet]

I love my red Etimos - terrific visibility without any glare, and so smooth. I bought all of mine individually; the price worked out the same as the set (or better), and I got the exact sizes that I wanted (they run up to 6.5 mm). I do wish they would sell a version of the cute case but with enough room to hold the whole line. Anyway, it’s great to see the red Etimos getting some love from a discerning and talented maker! 🙂

[@michellee623]

I already had the Tulip pink set when I saw the reds. I bought one red one off of amazon and ended up not only buying the set, but purchased singles of the 5.5mm, 6mm and 6.5mm to compliment the set. The red colour helps pick up the stitches of dark yarns like black and navy and I almost always use the reds when crocheting with those dark yarns. I also love furls hooks especially for Amigurumi, but struggled to use my furls 3.5mm hook while working with Coboo yarn. The coboo was splitting so much, I was ready to give it all away….but I reached for my 3.5mm etimo red and it was perfect, and I can look forward to using coboo yarn😅. I did find that the Tulip reds had a little drag right out of the box, but I ‘polished’ the hook with a microfibre eye glass cloth and they are smooth as a hot knife through butta.

[@letomlinson]

I never knew there were so many different hooks until I started watching your videos. I just love watching you!

[@889leoleo]

I learned of Tulips while stationed in Japan - and let me tell you - they sold out with the quickness and sometimes was hard to find! I fell in love with them there and bought them all! They even have some very tiny hooks too! Those hooks last forever and I can stay, none of the labels some off and they still look new 5+ years later!

[@tammybrassard2395]

I had a cousin give me this set when they first came out because she didn't like them. I think they're great and use them all the time. I don't crochet as much as I used to, but have been getting into making crocheted monsters for my grandkids.

[@liliasawyer7145]

I love love love my Etimo Tulip Red hooks. I find that I tend to reach for my Amour hooks more often but only because the handles are different colors. However, when I use my Amour hooks for extensive projects, I invariably wish I had started with the Reds. I find the handle more comfortable than the Amour because the thumb "stop" forces me to keep a consistent position on the handle. The Amour hooks start to make my thumb ache just a tiny bit because of the hard "edges" along the handle. I also like the hook head of the Reds more than the Amour. It seems like a cross between the Susan Bates and Boye heads but it really, really feels good to me.

[@sandygrogg1203]

HeyI, I’m actually using a tulip Red while watching this video. I have the whole set of the black and gold hooks…. Love the wrapup…. and a few of the pink. I love.Tu;ip hooks. My hands are small, so my clovers, and my tulips, are just right.. Thanks for a great review. I have absolutely no problem with living yards. These hooks are joy to use.

[@kbrathwai]

GREETINGS MS. TONI.....WELL I ORDERED THE TULIP ETIMO RED IN A 1/0 (1.80 MM) yesterday through Amazon & I LOVE IT!!! ❤❤❤❤ I BELIEVE THE WALLET GOT INTO IT!!!! THANK YOU & HAPPY CROCHETING 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@annettemcroberts2328]

I purchased my first Etimo (Red, 3.75mm and Rose 4mm) to test out based on another review video. I fell head over heels in love 😍with the feel while using on K&C essential cotton yarn. OMG!!! I was amazed at the difference in the flow while crocheting. I'm still fairly new at crochet and my 'go to' hooks were the Susan Bates set. I loved the Etimo so much, that I ordered my most used sizes (5mm, 5.5mm, 6.0mm, 6.5mm) in red the next day from Amazon. These will be my new 'go to' hooks. Sorry Susan, you've been designated as my back-ups.....and Boye, you're in the donation pile. 😜 Thank you Toni for your awesome, informative videos.

[@lynnjvv1]

I love my red tulip etimo hook! (I only have one). I found it easier to use with whatever I'm crocheting using cotton as opposed to the clover hooks which was more of a struggle for me. Thank you for your review!

[@cavem91524]

I love this beautiful crochet hooks. When I began crocheting, I bought the Clover Amour set but saw these and loved their matte finish. I think the Etimo blue set is even more stunning but they are pricey! Thank you, Toni, for your wonderful content.

[@sandygrogg1203]

I totally agree that it is important to use the best tools you can afford. I always recommend that new crochets by one or two really good hooks. I always suggest either the tulips or clover Amours, especially if you have small hands as I do. I absolutely love.Tulip hooks, and use all three colors.

[@livechilllife]

These are my favorite hooks. I can whip through things with zero arm or wrist pain. It gets into stitches and works through splitty yarn without splitting it.

[@ivymerritt7577]

I love, love, LOVE the color! They look so pretty, but I doubt I'd get them because I really don't use the smaller hook sizes. Thank you for the review! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@nev3rshoutnev3r]

I Iove your yarn snob reviews! Watching these videos and listening to your thoughts when selecting the right tools and materials for projects has helped me become a more conscious shopper. I’m starting to take more time when choosing the right materials, and my projects have been coming out so much better because of it!

[@kittylady8]

I have a hard time imagining a base set of crochet hooks that doesn’t come with a 4.5mm. But I’m glad you’ve enjoyed using them

[@ThirdStreetCreates]

I have the tulip etimo rose as well as the clover amours. I love them both and use them equally.

[@leciadavis-phillips6676]

I have the tulip brand. I treated myself to an upgrade and tulip didn’t disappoint.

[@deniceraciti3601]

Just ordered the same kit from Michael’s on Friday. It must have been kismet that in my Michael ‘s cart these are the 5.5, 6 and 6.5. How wonderful that you reviewed these today. I’m hitting buy and finish my collection. Coupons and voucher… yippe🎉

[@mauicm3447]

Tulips will always be my number 1 brand of hooks. They are kind of expensive but I don't care! I've been collecting the red ones for a long time... The blue ones are next for me!

[@jeannebeverly1244]

Tulip Etimo are my absolute favorites!💜💜💜

[@stephaniep456]

I've been a knitter for years, but you make crocheting so interesting to me. I could never get the tension right, so I'll be watching more of your videos to get over this😊

[@markiejsis4240]

Creating good tension with Crochet is so much easier than with knitting because you already know how to tension yarn crocheting will be a breeze just try it

[@AkiraFudou]

I'm a knitter and picked up crochet after watching a lot of her videos too. At first, it was a little difficult but it gets easier and easier. I find crocheting much faster now but reading patterns still takes a minute compared to knitting. 😄

[@marlalaubisch7183]

When I started crocheting, I struggled so much with tension. But with practice it comes completely naturally now, I don't even have to think about it.

[@hollydawn07]

I learned to knit in 2021, but I could never figure out how to crochet, but her “learn to crochet” video was the first one to click for me, and now I crochet as much as I knit ❤️

[@pattiray8542]

My tension is still all over the place, but I just roll with it! 😂

[@rebeccadoty5864]

Tulip Etimo Reds are awesome!!! Ordered 2 of the sizes I use most often and fell in love with the straight away. Thank you so much for recommending them!!!

[@ruthbennett7563]

You should be taking sponsorships… you just sold me!

[@Cattrix999]

Your channel has become my go to for crochet inspiration. I love your format and your vivacious confident presentation! Waving from Oregon :)

[@knotsnotbots]

Toni I really admire how professional and honest you are.

[@susiesdarnyarn4155]

I bought the Etimo Rose crochet hooks, when I first started crocheting, in 2009. I bought them, one at a time. Then I bought, a complete second set, as well. I LOVE them…and the fact, they are pink, makes them the perfect crochet hooks. 🩷 I have 2mm-6mm sets. Which I don’t use, under the 3mm, unless I am crocheting with threads.

[@jackimayo5650]

My red set of Tulips arrived today I am making a shawl with the 4mm hook. It glides so well. The case is good and fits in my handbag. I agree with you about the scissors and tapestry needles. These are my only complaints. Thank you for this. video.

[@CoffeeTeaCrochet]

I got the red tulip set for Christmas last year and holy crap they are *amazing*! They just feel so good to crochet with.

[@Jessesmom12]

Thanks for the look at new tools. ❤️

[@chrisgreek4285]

Toni, you need to do a collar with one of the premiere hook manufacturers to come up with the perfect hook set, complete with notions and cases. I wonder if the hooks might slip out of the rolled up case at the top? I chose a zippered ‘after-market’ case for my hooks just to ensure everything stayed inside, regardless of how it was picked up, but I could also be a little over-protective as I am thinking of when we move to an RV in a few of years. In that, I will need things neat and contained, so I went that way from the get go. Seriously, though, Toni…. I would be waiting with baited breath for a set of TLYC crochet hooks (and I’m betting BIG that they would be very bright and colourful) with just the right amount of slickness for the hook. 😍🥰😍

[@pandaffection]

I’m surprised these have taken so long to make it to the US market (or at least into your hands!). These are my ride or die hooks- I have tried the others- clover, furls and nothing (except my BQueen hooks that you introduced me to- thank you) come anywhere close to my Tulip Etimo Reds. If I only had one set of hooks forever, and it was these ones, I would be a happy girl. In regards to the sizes, I don’t know if you can access them, but you can purchase all the additional in-between sizes individually in Australia, so I have completed my set up to a 6.5mm. As I live in Australia and extremely rarely, if ever, use anything heavier than a DK weight yarn, I don’t often reach for the larger hook sizes, but they are nice to have as an option. Thanks for your company tonight- I’m feeding my 7 week old baby when your premiere came on in the middle of the night in Australia and it was a lovely surprise! Thank you for all you do- as someone who came back to crochet as an adult after learning as a child, you are someone I recommend to anyone who wants to learn and develop their skills. Much love from Australia!

[@PeggyF]

I love my Clover Amour hooks and will stick with them. Thank you for reviewing these hooks. You never know when something better will come along.

[@makeitwithalex4483]

I love my Clovers too, but I think these are even better, if that can be possible :)

[@makeitwithalex4483]

These are THE BEST hooks I have ever used - I would suggest crocheters buy a single hook before buying a set to try :)

[@sygar7]

I agree with your review. I absolutely LOOOOOVE mine.

[@oezlemguelec1464]

While waiting for my Shinkansen, I could not resist and bought this set just a few weeks ago in Hiroshima. The fact that these are actually made in Hiroshima sold me on them. Because of my arthritis I could not use them for now😢, but still they have a good feel to them.

[@stephanyeversole4024]

I originally used the gold clovers. But after trying one of these I was in looove! I have them all now and they are my go to hooks! Loved the review! Great job as always!

[@mlewis8579]

I wanted to tell you what a great teacher you are!🎉 Just going to start Tunisian crochet and love your style of teaching. Thank You

[@JoyceN818]

Enjoyed this review. I have one Etimo Tulip pink hook and would like to purchase the whole set when my pocketbook allows me to. Thank you!🥰

[@huggablehobbit7549]

I LOVE Tulip hooks. I have a couple of the Tulip Red and the Tulip Rose, I just bought them as I was able to treat myself for a new hook here and there. I have acquired a collection of hooks but Tulip have to be my favorite followed by my Clover brand hooks. I love the Tulip Etimo Reds because red is my favorite color and I love the color of the hook itself. Also, I have had mine for a while and my label that indicates the size is still looking like it did when I bought it and I use my 5mm A LOT.

[@xlena60]

This is the first time I heard of these hooks. I would love if they came in more sizes, but I may have to give them a try. You can never have too many hooks. I noticed as I've gotten older that my grip has changed when I crochet. It would not hurt to try different crochet hooks for comfort. Thank you Toni fot this review.❤❤

[@Heeyitsmika]

they have alot of sizes from lace hooks to big hooks

[@campbellgriffin6396]

THANK YOU FOR YOUR HONESTY! So many ppl don't disclose when things are gifted. You are always a breath of fresh air. As for hooks, my Tulip rose hooks are my FAVE! i love my clover amours too but the tulip rose hooks give me life!

[@campbellgriffin6396]

Also I used truboo and my tulip rose to make the frankie bucket hat. The yarn pilled so bad and it was slippery, but overall manageable.

[@maggiemay74]

These are MY faves as well. I have carpel tunnel, and these are my go-to.

[@Ash3s2ash3s808]

I have all the sets, they are so amazing! My favorite is my OG gold set without the ergonomic handle, smoothest tulips I own.

[@susanmcquaig2927]

Pricing is way to much for me. I won’t pay that amount. Ever. Great video! ❤

[@sandrapalmer5642]

Toni it was so good to see you doing a regular video. I know you have been busy and you have had a few videos and it is just so good to see you again. I have been busy also. Tiffany has kept us on our toes. I love y'alls collab on the kitchen set. Perfect for me to give for Christmas gifts.

[@suenicogatson1105]

My etimo red set sleeps my bed for real.❤❤❤

[@ataylor340]

Tulip hooks are my favorite! I love them so much more than Clover hooks.

[@mizgnomer]

I have bought several of the larger size Etimo Red hooks on Amazon and I really do like them. I am hoping to build a complete set. Thank you Toni ❤️🧶

[@pattycakecrochet1]

I bought the cheaper gray set last year & I feel in love. I'm a huge fan of pink & want to get that set also. The price for what u get the red set VS the gray was the main reason I got the older set. Once u try 1 u will b hooked. Pun intended. If on a budget but want to splurge a little,get the gray set. Ty Toni for everything u do. Love ur energy & excitement for everything crochet.

[@elizabethburnett2486]

The number stay on I have the pink set and I love them my favorite.

[@user-whitallen4]

I would leave them, only because I normally crochet with a 5.5 mm hook and it wasn’t included in the set. Your videos are amazing!

[@preciousbeautyj1043]

Hi Toni, great review…I tried Prym hooks bcuz of watching your review and loved them. Have been looking at these Tulip Etimo red for a while, after this review, I’ll give them a try to see how I like them. Thx for the review.

[@sandygrogg1203]

I typically use sizes that are not included in this kit, as you have pointed out. So, I have been creating my own set by purchasing those sizes from Amazon.

[@lessons9745]

Those are pretty hooks and they look comfy to use. I am currently hooked on Prym ergonomic crochet hooks though!

[@teatimecherry4718]

I purchased the etimo in my favorite size 4mm a few months ago. And was pleasantly surprised at how much faster I was able to crochet. I have since purchased all sizes available. Gettys Craft has the lowest price (abt 8 dollars) that I have found anywhere online. I still love my Clover and Boye hooks but they are now my backups.

[@alexiarosas8756]

I'm watching this while using the same hook in 6mm! I've had mine for a year and haven't gone back! It's still in perfect condition and I use it almost everyday

[@elainejan]

I have had the gray Etimo set for years and I love them.

[@debracubitt6191]

Thank you for your reviews Toni ❤ The Etimo Red crochet hook set looks so pretty I use larger hooks regularly I really appreciate that your video illustrates you crocheting with these crochet hooks and different types of yarn😃👏👏👏

[@juliachapman1899]

Very well balanced, comfy, smoooth, & THE best for old eyes. I use a headlight & the red matte metal doesn’t shine back at sensitive eyes😊Good all round for various type yarns! But the best is the help with old eyes like mine👀I bought the sizes I prefer - worth the spend. Thank you,Toni, for your “in depth” review ❤️J . (In Australia on a cold winter night!)

[@valeriehowden471]

I am passing on these because I love my Clover Amours! The colour is perfect.

[@asantamatilha]

I loved my clovers, then you mentioned the gray tulips ............and then I heard abt the red oned. Honestly I am HOOKED. They are the best ones. And not easy to find in Rio de Janeiro........... very expensive too. But absolutely worth having..........

[@sandrapalmer5642]

Toni I am feeling over the moon because I just purchased the Mary Maxim cardigan that you designed and I cannot wait for it to get here. I told you way back that your model is beautiful and SO ARE YOU and you should be modeling some of your work. Anyway I can't wait.

[@maritzavazquez7619]

OMG!! This video was just what I needed. I was looking for comfortable crochet hooks and after viewing some reviews about the Prym hooks, I bought a set. I didn't like them. They are not smooth and the rubbing sound bothers me. I came across your video and decided to bite the bullet and splurge on quality. These hooks are as amazing as you say. I love them and I love the portability. (metal beats plastic every time!) Thank you.

[@LlamasInPajamas13]

Etimo Tulips are my perfect hook. I used Boye for 30 years and kept trying various new hooks at different price points. None were comfortable or suited my hold (pen style) until I tried Etimo Tulips. Now I have the red set, the Rose pink set, and the purple steel hook lace weight set, plus the additional singles that the sets do not include, and the full set of the plastic extra large hooks too. It's the only hooks I use now and I can't imagine using anything else. They are perfection to me. They slid like a dream, are comfortable to hold for long periods, are not too bulky therefore changing the angle at my hook sits at for my pen-style hold, and even though they are not as thickly built up as other ergonomic hooks, they are built up enough that my fingers and hands feel the difference when using them over a classic Boy hook. I highly recommend them. I bought mine from Amazon. Including the single 'filler' sizes. I had trouble finding one of the extra large plastic hook sizes and found it on Etsy.

[@maryghek]

I used generic hooks before and just started using Tulip Etimo this month! I love how this works well and so smooth to use! Planning to buy the whole set when I go to Japan soon!

[@cymryj4520]

Love your channel, it's been a while since I crocheted about 15 years I stopped due to hurting of the hands, but have recently picked it back up , I was taught on bates hooks, but recently bought Clover and love them they don't hurt my fingers and hands near enough. I saw your vid and just bought the tulip red kit and added the 5.5 and 6.0, let's see how they go its nice to have a different variety. Thanks

[@sandyrinehart5566]

I have a set of Red and a pink set of Tulips, love both and use them all the time. I have 4 young children in my family and I use all the hook sizes in each set. Thank you for reviewing these hooks. I love them❤️

[@valeriewestmoreland4010]

I agree with all you suggestions but I would also add a 2 sided ruler with inches and centimeters.

[@jessicadvorak9876]

I literally JUST purchased this set today and it is wild to me that you review it just now. Etimo hooks have been my go-to. The head shape is just perfect for me. I had already purchased some of the larger sizes outside of the set, so my set actually has more hooks than it can hold lol. I don't know if you kept the storage box that came with the hooks, part of the cardboard that the hooks were set in come out of the package and have a lid that closes. So I keep the lace weight ones in that box, and will keep my larger everyday sizes in the roll-up pouch. As per usual, I am sad that they do not come in larger than a 6.5. I literally loathe that once I get to a 7mm everything goes plastic. All the plastic ones just suck imho. Another youtuber had compared the Etimo reds to the Etimo rose and the standard Etimo gray and found that the red ones weighed just a slight bit less. Which I found to be interesting information. I own most of the hook sizes I regularly use in both the red and the pink, and I find that the matte vs shiny metal dictates which hook works best. Different yarns work up smoother, sometimes too smooth, with either the red or the pink. Just my two cents. Thank you Toni for all that you do!

[@mezzosuzie]

I had a terribly difficult bamboo yarn that split a ton and the Tulip was the only one that worked (although I didn’t try a Clover). I only have one, but it seems great.

[@tracimaei]

My gold tip Tulips are my absolute favoriteeeee they are always my go to for every project. So comfy for me❤

[@LeFlygonnJinn]

I was so surprised that I didn’t like these. No matter what I did I couldn’t get the needle to glide with my yarn (wool, acrylic, cotton, and bamboo). I love the color so much, and maybe it’s just the ‘tism in me, but the eh eh sound while crocheting vibrated my hands weird 😂

[@Creationsbyfrogi]

My mum would say let's buy the pack and in my mind I would say there not always good mum.

[@Dont_be_a_Silly_Wombat]

My eldest daughter has ADHD with a lot of the isms that go along with that...the noises yarn make drive her mad some days also.

[@darkandstormymama]

Is it humid where you live or do you use lotion while crocheting? Both can cause the sticking when it comes to metal heads (my preference).

[@LeFlygonnJinn]

@@darkandstormymamait’s humid where I live but I also tried it while vacationing up north for the winter and still had issues with how much they hold onto yarn. I wish they worked for me because they are GORGEOUS but just not for me 😅

[@LeFlygonnJinn]

@@darkandstormymamaI have the grey set from Etimo and it’s my favorite hook set, so when I saw the red, I fell in love

[@sandramorris5419]

After seeing your review and others, I just tried a Clover Amour hook and I love it! I wanted to try Tulip, but not a fan of the brown/black and gold at all, or even the pink. When looking for my Clover on Amazon, I saw these. Red is my favorite color, so I searched and found this review to see how they compare with my new Clover hook. Thank you for all the information, you have helped me so much!

[@RyanandRiver]

I just started watching your videos and I love that you are very positive and happy in all of your videos

[@erikagholston6610]

I do want to try lace work one day. Maybe I will give these hooks a try.

[@darcypalmer7783]

Gorgeous color! Really fun case! I'm tempted! Thanks for another great review.

[@catherineweaver3652]

Thx for this review … I thought it was well balanced! Enough so that I’m going to seek out this set and try the look & feel in my own hand. I think I want to add it to my toolbox, but I’m taking your points into account and want to experience the shorter length and possible lump & bump hand irritation (or not). THX!

[@djmcb1989]

OMG, I really enjoyed your video! The suggestion made a lot of sense. I would be so tempted to purchase these, however they are a little pricey for me and my skill crochet skill level and discipline to stick with one craft through completion, but they sound pretty comfortable which Is indeed very important!

Agree ---love these hooks. I have the original color/copper colored hook, black handle. I use Tranesca iPen grippers I found on Amazon. These grippers go on/off easily and can be moved to different hooks. Game changer for comfort and preventing fatigue.

Thank you for a great review. I am waiting for a 6.5mm pink tulip, I’m so happy I found you. The red is so pretty! ❤

THE best Crochet hooks! I have several sets and extras for most used. I love them they are my all time favs. It/they flow thru like butter.

Love love LOVE this set. I got it for christmas in 2021 and loved them so much that my partner got me all the hook sizes I didn’t have for christmas in 2022. My most used hook is size 3 and 3.25 and mostly use it with wool or cotton, currently doing a scrap sweater with size 5 and I’m amazed how quickly it’s going 😂

I'll confess that I wanted to buy this set of hooks based on the colour alone. I have a set of Clover Amour hooks, and-no fault really in the hooks-but being a guy, my hands are a little bit bigger and it feels like I'm crocheting with toothpicks. I prefer something with more weight and heft, like my Furls Odyssey hooks. I also started out on the Boye-style hook, but as time has passed, I've been won over by the pointed, in-line heads typical of Susan Bates. However, that stunning RED of the Tulip 🌷hooks is still singing in my dreams... I may have to buy them even if I use them once in a while!

These are my absolute favorite hooks for cotton, silk, and other "slippery" yarns! These have just enough grab for easy stitching and definition, without sticking. I haven't had the splitting problem Toni mentioned above, but I'm using different yarns. I switched out my Clover Amour smaller hooks for these. I do wish the Etimo Reds came in larger sizes, but that's what Etimo Gold and Clovers are for, I guess! Highly recommended. I was able to purchase this set (authentic) for $65 on Amazon by price watching. I really enjoyed this review.

I love your reviews, but I also love my cheapo hooks... I struggle with tapered hooks, so I stick with inline. I love the cute way the set is presented and packaged, but I'd leave it at the store.

I bought the 5 mm over a year ago and it is by far my favorite hook and the printing still has not rubbed off!

[@deevadelyte212]

I’m a huge lover of Susan Bates A line hooks. I love your reviews.

I love the feel of the tulip etimo hooks. I usually use the originals but have a red one too. I would prefer a set that included just a little larger size and skip the bottom sizes.

[@sueg3937]

I love these. I have the red and gray.

Great Video I have 4mm of each of Tulip Etimo Rose and Red along with A full range of Clover Amour I think 4mm in Tulip Etimo Rose and Red is very similar to Clover Amour 4mm all brilliant hooks
