I use a toothbrush holder tube for my hook that goes in my wip bag.

[@CoolCraftyCreations]

❤❤❤❤ Cinnabon!!! Thanks for the shout out! Awwwww 😊 listen I’m always for hooks that are going to be comfortable in our hands! lol and the price isn’t that bad either. Love you sweetie! 😊

[@CinnamonStitches]

Im so sorry i forgot your channel name in the video! But im always glad to shout out my girl! 💜💜💜

[@CoolCraftyCreations]

@@CinnamonStitches Lady, I’m just glad that we’re friends, love you Cinnabon!

[@egoreknits]

The hook containers look like PVC pipe. I bet that Mr. Cinnamon could figure out what diameter pipe you would need for your hooks and you could go get a pipe at your local Lowe's or Home Depot. I think you could even get the pipe cut up into the right lengths for your hooks. Hmmm... Now I'm thinking I want to do this.

[@Anne5440_]

The cases are totally pvc pipe. And the right size cork would fit. I can understand your points about hook length. You've said you have large hands, and I definitely have small hands. You're right the size and shape make a difference in hook use. But do consider asking Mr Cinnamon look into making you longer cases. They will protect your hooks so well when having them out of your carrying case you just got.

[@samanthamurdock3752]

I was thinking the same!!!!

[@samanthamurdock3752]

Great Suggestion!!! Just need some cork and foam!!!! The do make caps for the ends!!!!

[@rochellepizza5802]

Good Morning. I love 3C’s KZbin channel. Cool Crafty Creations. I’m so sorry that your Alexandrite stone was lost. They are extremely expensive especially if they were purchased in the 60’s & 70’s. I have a long story regarding the same stone, but I will not bore anyone with that. I also prefer a longer crochet hook even though my hands are small. I also tried both of the two hooks and I agree with you, however IMO anyone that prefers a shorter crochet hook should give Ophire a try. Have a wonderful day.

[@jeffcarol78]

I LOVE these hooks! I have 4 already!!!

[@yolandaperkins6291]

🤗 So glad you got to give Ophire a try, I really love their cases too!

[@donnamyers4161]

I love Ophire crochet hooks!

[@maggielu7802]

Ophire Co. are my go to hooks after my Furls. I too like the longer shaft but I like the Ophire for quicker projects. I like to use them when I travel too. Ashley is such a sweet person too! Well worth supporting her small business. I love that her business is growing so much.

[@user-tm3jl2yl7e]

Shes definitely the sweeetest. Its s worth purchasing

[@elmo_0558]

Lmao...i swear the child in me laughed out loud when you first mentioned why you prefer ommi. 😊

[@keithasimon]

I think the shaft will distort your gauge if you switch between hooks in the same project. Thanks for the review on the Ophire hooks. They are really beautiful ❤

[@susanhebert3299]

Thanks for sharing Jennifer

[@lisad8731]

My birthstone is also Alexandrite. I love the color on that hook. My class ring seemed to act like a mood ring. If I was warm it would be a smokey grey green and if I was cool it would be a lavender. I love it.

[@malexandrep6276]

I haven't had the chance to try a hook with that shape yet, but those hooks look good to me - I need a short shaft because of the way I hold my hook, so I like how the Ophire look more then the Omi or Furls. I wish I could try them, they are so pretty!!

[@annette22177]

I really like the ophire crochet hook.

[@samanthamurdock3752]

Hey Jen! Jen and Family you guys have got to print out the "ears shadow" picture and display on your walls because it is Awesomely Great!!!! It says so much about you guys !!! Just had to tell you!!!!

[@judyinmichigan3418]

Very beautiful hooks. My birthday is in September loving the hook color for that month. Thank you for doing a video on these.

[@monaramsey7431]

I absolutely love, love, love! Your top or dress you are wearing. Dusty pink chiffon with pink lips. OMG! BEAUTIFUL. You look so nice in it.

[@annette22177]

I really like ophire hooks

[@ambisherman6125]

Both hooks are very pretty. Thank you for your review😊

[@lorettadubois3438]

I love my birthstone hook

[@violetwheatley2381]

That squirrel looks cool Oregon squirrels don't look like that. We have red squirrels and Gray squirrels. I agree crafting keeps me calm also.

[@lindabrown2170]

Thanks for the review.

[@kathymartin5036]

You may find this silly, but the reasons you gave for not liking Ophire, actually made me decide I had to try them. I had a gift card burning a hole in my desk so to speak, so I decided to use it. I got three hooks and they came super quick. I have been watching a gal in Vegas preach about how great these hooks were for months and how sweet the inventor of these hooks was. They are a very small company in AZ and there reputation is everything, so she works hard at being helpful and accommodating. So back to the reason that perked my ears in your review. The fact that they are shorter. I have many Ommi hooks and some Furls as well. I love them both. But I do tend to choke up on my hook and I don't like the extra neck length my Furls have. They tend to feel unbalanced, especially the bigger sizes. Another thing I have found is that my Furls, not so much the Ommi are slick. Not really a problem except that my hands dry out so fast and sometimes that can be an issue. I didn't think the Ophire felt plasticky at all, just not as super slick. OPhire is a very new company and they are already doing a collaboration with We Crochet with a new color that is exclusive to them. It is so pretty. Ashlie is on the We crochet video that announced the colab and she could not have been a nicer person. She talked about how the company came about and the reason the hooks are made the way they are. Super interesting. I really o feel like Goldilocks and I have found the right fit in a crochet hook.

[@ceciliawilds6973]

Very nice review , thank you so much .

[@thespooniestitcher]

I love OPhire but I have small hands for shorter is nice. You should check out her bobbins and her stands will fit an Ommi hook. I love Crystal! She's the sweetest

[@kathihacker4232]

Love your hair Jennifer!

[@JDiamondW1]

I adore these hooks. I bought a 4.5 and it's so delicate in my hand. I want to pick up another few. My hubby got me 2 hooks for my birthday, just got them today. One is a Divit and the other is a Resin wood mix. I can't wait to try them. I really agree with you about the shaft of the hook. I think the Ophire hooks are best for amigurumi because you mostly have single crochet and you don't need that long shaft at that point.

[@shirleyspring4905]

Thank you so much for reviewing these hooks. I see them everyday on fb. Shorter is great for me and they’re so pretty. 💜

[@user-tm3jl2yl7e]

Iim personally on my second order n i live them. Plus the owner is really sweet

[@dianesass9901]

This was very enlightening and (for people like ne who are 'sick AND twsted) hysterical! Thanks for the review.

[@lindamyers7513]

I'm a June baby too, a really old June baby. June 14th. I gave a ring with 2 alexandrite stones and it changes color. They are very hard to find. I've had mine 55 years. A present from my husband the first year we were married.

[@Dawn-pw1xv]

I'm a June 14th baby too but a few years younger We were both born in the same week as fathers day🎉😊

[@Knits-WIPs-N-Chains]

I also use more of the shaft of my crochet hooks.

[@texanasimmons1761]

The hooks look great! I love those tubes, too! Thank you for the review!!❤

[@maryhummel2886]

Good morning Jen Pretty hooks. Yes hooks have to be comfortable in your hand. 😊

[@LadyDee150]

Those are 2 good looking hooks!!🤩 You have the knack of choosing very attractive hooks every time!🥰

[@haleigherin4797]

OMG Jen, I have been sitting here laughing the whole time because if you didn’t know what you were talking about and you just heard you you would not know what to do too funny great thanks for reviewing them

[@karenb6791notakaren]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😜😜😜😜😜

[@MadMimisCrochetandFarming]

Thanks for sharing

[@redcanary2928]

Wow those hooks are gorgeous!

[@knitpurlsquirrelwithgrannydee]

I just got one last week and really like it!

[@samanthamurdock3752]

Oh Jen I love your hook reviews keep 'em coming!!!! I love hooks with long shafts too!!!

[@alicefredrickson4574]

Morning Jen . ☀️. I have my birthstone in garnet and one that is black and white stripe.. they fit my hand perfectly. Thank you for sharing. 🙂

[@tfallinbbq]

Thank you for your tutorial for the hooks. Im like you I like the longer shaft myself and the longer hooks. Just recently bought the OMMI hooks and love them.

[@CraftHarlot]

Gorgeous. I have hook envy! I'm still waiting for my last Ommi hook order to arrive. They were out of stock when I went back to order, probably because you showed everyone how pretty they are!

[@denisejf]

Good morning, I haven't tried resin hooks. Thank you for showing these hooks. They are pretty. Wishing you a wonderful blessed weekend 🙏🏻💝

[@Christena1601]

Thank you for sharing. I may give them a try cause I like a shorter hook.

[@dianecummins4168]

Good Mornin', thanks for the review!

[@kathywelch8722]

Those are beautiful hooks. I use a pencil grip so the length might work for me. I do love my Ommi hooks too. Thank you for sharing your review of these hooks. 💜🙏🏻

[@Kdiefenbacher]

Thanks for the wonderful review! Hooks look awesome, I like the shorter lengths. Very pretty also. Have a wonderful day! ❤️🙏

[@Anne5440_]

I finally have all 3 brands and have just started comparing them in project use. So the jury is still out on side by side use. All being smooth and round, I'm having trouble with each hook rolling in my fingers as I use them the same way pencils and pens roll in my fingers. For pens and pencils, that isn't a problem. For crochet, it is a nightmare when trying to maintain hook working position. So I am on a search for a solution because the foam makeup things I bought with not fit threw any of the 3 handles. Thus causing hand pain, which requires days of recovery after one day of use. I have small hands and not started testing hook length, but on furls and ommi, my hand seems to slide too far up the head of the hook, adding to hook holding issues. For the ophire and furls, I've compared the hook head design of the furls and ophie but not the ommi yet. I like the shape of the ophire hook working head over the furls. The tip of the ophire has a nice point to the very end of the tip and goes through the stitches easier than the rounder tip of the furls. So far, the furls is splitting every yarn I have tried it with. Which drives me batty from past splitting with other hooks. But I need to do formal testing with each hook side by side yet for each issue. I have 2 sizes of each brand to test. I absolutely adore the cases for the ophire hooks. I need to check if all 3 brands fit in those cases. I have written the size in sharpie on the end of my ophie hooks, and that seems to be staying well with use. My fear is that I've bought 6 hooks that are more expensive than my old 1960s to 80s hooks that I may end up not being able to use. I have some other style "ergonomic " hooks that I need to do testing on also. I'm 75 so working pain is very important to avoid. I will be interested in all of your thoughts!

[@ColleenKnight-ql7to]

I just ordered one cuz I like the shorter hooks and I got the rubber handled ones from temu and they work well for me but I'm a pencil holder

[@Gina-ty4bx]

I recently finished buying a full set of the Ommi hooks. The pink swirl hook came in one of the storage tubes that your Ophire hooks came in. I really like the tube.

[@conniehalloran5066]

These are interesting , I have small hands . Thanks for the review Sweet Girl !

[@terrymatuozzi1504]

Thank you for the review. You pointed out some great things when comparing the hooks.😊😊🧶🧶🧶

[@stephaniesosna8213]

Some of the protective tube lids come loose. I put a little piece of masking tape around the top piece and they now fit snuggly. I've purchased extra hook tubes to use in my project bags with other hooks 😊

[@suebigger5097]

Good Morning 🤗 Happy Friday with your hook review!! I basically use Boye or Susan Bates. Have several Clover hooks I like. But those are pretty. Love how you give such honest reviews. Have a great weekend!! See you Monday🥰

[@parsnips1974]

Those are lovely.

[@traciperdue]

Good morning Jennifer. Thanks for sharing. Have a great day.❤

[@CECEG82]

You just sold me on the Omi because I love a long shaft

[@lisarepp2401]

[@frozenstone1787]

Thank you for the hook review 😊.

[@MichelleWorn-qf2sh]

Thanks for the review

[@marlenemahn1245]

My new diaz hooks came in hot pink tubes like those! I know you said you didn't want to try them, but so far I really like them!

[@cynthiacazares4807]

Jen, When I saw this video I thought wow finally a resin hook that is not to big. But now I have concerns. I am making a baby blanket using a 6.5 metal ergo hook from Michaels. As I crochet I see I am using the entire shaft of the metal hook. I thinking the short shaft might be a problem. The Furls and Ommi hooks are to long to fit in my smaller hands, but I apparently need a at least an inch and half long shaft. I might still get one in the 6.5 size (my favorite) and if I can't use it at least I tried it. As always, thanks for your review.

[@RandeT73]

That's my issue with the Ommi hooks, I have tiny hands so them being long they're cumbersome in my hand. I'm trying to talk my husband into an Amethyst and Alexandrite (mine and his birthstone) for my birthday in 3 weeks.

[@machelleearley9031]

The same for me. I have small hands and the length of the furls and ommi is what made me not buy them but the Ophires are perfect for my hand size.

[@craftygirl17]

I’m a June baby to Alexandrite birthstone is so hard to find now. My mom bought me a birthstone ring when I was 11 and it’s been long gone, I wish I had it because my mom is gone now it would have been a memory of her. They have other stones they replaced Alexandrite with but it’s not the same, I’m mad at myself for losing it. Also had a daughters pride ring from my mom that I had in my jewelry box because one of the stones fell out we had our house broken into and the jewelry box was stolen with it in the jewelry box, I was devastated to say the least. Two rings that had sentimental value gone.☹️

[@beescraftycorner]

I like them too, but I'm a long shaft girl also.

[@marion4351]

I've had hooks break in those tunes twice. I prefer the longer Ommi hooks. I like the shaft and I don't like when they hit the palm of my hand.

[@nyakcent]

I've ordered Ommi hooks based on your rec and a couple of them came in those type of cases as did another brand from Amazon ( I forget the brand) that came in pink tubes

[@terrylibbey611]

My ommi hooks came in tubes. Kinda wish i had clear tubes for them though. I wonder if i could find clear hard plastic tubing and make some myself.

[@jeanniecarter3933]

I tried them but I love my Omni hooks

[@SAT2SAP]

Reference for a crochet hook is Susan Bates, I don’t Care for the heads on the Boye hooks. It seems to me like the boy hooks split the thread more. Of course it might be the way I hold my hooks I don’t know.

[@preciousbeautyj1043]

Great review and I agree that the $ price is affordable.

[@the-painted-quilter]

I like the Ophire better than Ommi. Waiting for an oops sale 😂 to get more

[@3littlemonkeys1]

Ophire sent me the wrong hook. A few of the hooks had hairs and debris in the resin. I was disappointed.

[@patbittinger9315]

Good morning Jen.

[@CinnamonStitches]

Good morning!

[@painterbeetle]

I got the cases with 2 ommi hooks

[@karenb6791notakaren]

I did, too but they've stopped. The last two I've gotten are back in the cardboard boxes, though. 🤔

[@manfasmakes-sam]

These hooks look beautiful but I’m not a huge fan of resin hooks! To be fair I think I need to use them a bit more to learn to love them ❤

[@susanh2610]

I just wanted to let you know that I bought 2 Ommi hooks last July through Amazon. One of the hooks came in one of those tubes and the other came in light cardboard packaging. The tube is plastic and it has a woodgrain finish. I checked and they were both from the same seller, ECraft Store, and shipped by Amazon. I don’t know why one had the tube and one didn’t, but maybe Ommi actually has tubes. I might be worth checking into.

[@CinnamonStitches]

I have never received a tube

[@karencooper4010]

I ordered two, they are cute. Were do you get the one you like that is longer

[@joanmachado9063]

[@CinnamonStitches]

Good morning!

[@martyaltadonna524]

Hi Jen

[@CinnamonStitches]

Hi

[@Crochetgrandmom]

They are pretty hooks and I have a few but they are to short and skinny for me

[@kelseyverbanac2663]

I'm not sure how I feel about these…i use Furls, Clover, and Tulips but normally do Tunisian crochet. $16.99 I'm okay with spending on a maybe though.

[@bluesonicstreak7317]

Anyone know if the stands hold Furls and Ommi hooks too? Since they're a similar shape (if not similar lengths), I wonder if they would be interchangeable for those other brands too.

[@CinnamonStitches]

I have been told it does. The bottom or handles are very very similar

[@michellethemotherofboys9950]

I was hoping you'd review these hooks, I keep seeing them every time I order furls lol! Good to know they are shorter than ommi, but how much shorter than Furls may I ask?

[@karenb6791notakaren]

Okay, now I'm suspicious... I ordered two Ommi hooks a few months ago from Amazon and they came in those containers. They were brown tubes, though and had Ommi Crochet engraved into them. Anyway, i haven't gotten them shipped in those containers since then. Interesting. 🤔

[@Moodyblue78]

I’ve had three hooks from this company. All three were different sizes. When I checked sizes they were all off by a hook size. They are pretty hooks though.

[@CinnamonStitches]

You are not the only one with this observation

[@jeffcarol78]

Can you add a link to ommi crochet hooks please?
