Hey Toni, congrats on the Tunisian hooks collab! I'm excited to see what you come up with! My ideal Tunisian hooks/hooksets are: 1. Metal with a slight thumb rest and pointy heads 2. Swivel cords with no tool to attach 3. Short, medium, long, and extra long cords for bigger blanket projects 4. Metric and standard US sizing on the handle 5. Longer handles 6. All hooks are a metallic color and all the same color in a set (I hate multicolored hooks in a set) 7. Sizes 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5, 6, 6.5, 7, 8, 10+ 8. The case I would like to be zip-up just so I don't lose hooks if the case ever got knocked off the end table/couch or fell out of my bag 9. Enough room in the case for the cords, stoppers, stitch markers, and scissors

Congratulations, Toni!! 🎉 My ideal Tunisian set: -Have the basic set come with the larger sizes and not the smaller ones. Way more people need an 8 mm, 10 mm, and a 12 or 15 mm than will ever need a 3.5mm! This is my pet peeve with most sets - including a ton of sizes people don't need and lacking the sizes we need for anything above a basic worsted, sigh. -Cords that swivel, don't require a key, and are flexible enough not to whack me without being floppy like the Chiaogoo plastic tubing. Also important for there to be a smooth glide in both directions at the point where the cord and hook meet instead of a "kink" -I don't get to TC as much as I'd like due to the unpadded straight hooks causing hand pain, so anything you can do for ergonomics - thumb rest, little bit longer length for those of us with bigger hands, anything - would be huge -I'm sure I'm in the minority on this one, but I actually find bamboo much easier on my hands than metal, so I'd prefer smooth bamboo/wood. Hopefully that might also help keep costs down a little? -Zippered case with a durable plastic/leather-like finish - I'm always scared my Clover items are going to fall out! Would also love an extra pocket for stitch markers, a little pair of scissors, needle, etc.

Hook suggestion: 1 - Must have a swivel cords …light weight but strong 2 - No took needed for lock or easy secure locking connection for swivel cords. Also make sure the connection spot is smooth- no catching/dragging of yarn 3 - Smooth finish on hook - NO drag 4 - Make the hooks pretty- I love bright colors but a deep wood stain is nice too 5 - DO NOT have any raised embossing on the hook. I love my Clover Amoure Hooks (yes I know they aren’t Tunisian) but they have a raised embossing that irritates my fingers 6 - ChouiGoo has a great case for their sets, pocket for each size (with sizing listed in spot) place for cords and separate spot for notions. 7 - case should zipper around to secure needles & things inside 8 - do multiple sets - mini set (smaller sizes), large set (larger sizes) and full set (small sizes and large sizes) and the Toni set (all your must have sizes )all with cords & a scissors maybe cute Toni only stitch markers 9 - Make the sets affordable!!!!! 10 - Pointy pointy pointy heads!!!! 11 - thumb rest 12 - larger hook for larger hands 13 - ergonomic

As my late husband would say, "That's a lot of hooks." I love that there are so many different types of Tunisian crochet hooks. If it were up to me, I would definitely make the hooks at least 8" long. Not just for the women with bigger hands but I find it gives a better range of motion and for those of us who have arthritis in our fingers it isn't as difficult to move the hook. Definitely a thumb rest. Pointy hybrid hook, swivel cords. I agree with everything you said you wanted. Shoot for the stars!

All knitters Pride cords are interchangeable across the brand and are available in any length you might need, coming with stoppers included. So good!! Great video as always!!

It would have a finger rest. More for arthritis. Something comfortable for my hands. The cord would be swivel and a screw in. No keys! Wood stoppers at the end of the cords. The case would be in a hard shell case with velvet lining. Complete with notions and a pair of unicorn scissors. Unicorns are just cool and colorful. I'd have a colorful set, too. Purple, teal, green, and blue. Unicorn colors. Sparkle, too. That would be my ultimate Tunisian crochet set.

Good on you Toni! I've often wondered about some hook designs and even questioned if anyone who actually had vast crochet experience was even consulted. You were the person who reignited my love of Tunisian crochet. Hadn't done it in years and went back to it because of you! My ideal Tunisian hooks would be either a Clover Amour or Tulip Etimo Red style hook (with that smoothness) with pointier heads, super-flexible swivel cords in various lengths that did not require a key and good connectors and stoppers and with absolutely flawless quality in sizes from 4mm to 15mm and a quality case. If that set met all those expectations, I would spring for them regardless of price. Forgot two things, a well-placed thumb rest and all hook sizes must come in sets of two to facilitate cro-hooking/cro-knitting. Am I asking for too much here?

Yay! I recently restarted my Tunisian crochet adventures, with a Denise set, I got 2 sets of the larger Love2Crochet brights, because I love making hats with double ended tools. I already want to get another, non-plastic set, so I will hold out for yours! The plastic works fine for natural fibers, but if the material is the same as the knitting needle, acrylic yarn will be a literal drag. My dream set of Tunisian hooks will have swivel cords that snap in like the Denise, a comfy thumb rest, pointed but not dangerously sharp heads, and will not be made of plastic. Between metal and wood, I want both, I love the warmth of wood and it is possible these days to get fairly smooth surfaces, but metal tends to be smoother for me in knitting tools. I have tiny hands, so the Denise set is ok in that respect, but slightly longer would probably be nicer even for me. Definitely need longer for normal-handed folks LOL. I have not compared length from throat to chin so I will need ot rely on people who have. Tulip is my favorite brand of standard crochet hooks, but the embossed sizes irritate the skin on my pinky finger. I will be getting out my dremel to smooth those off as soon as I get around to it. Having the letters and numbers sunk into the hook rather than standing proud of the surface is much more comfortable for me.

I bought the Clover Takumi set on your recommendation and have fallen in love with Tunisian crochet because of you and your recommendation. I have been looking for a metal set of Tunisian crochet hooks to complement my Takumis, but haven't found my perfect 10 yet. My dream set would: 1. Be made of metal with similar heads to the Clover hooks, maybe a touch pointier. 2. Have a Clover style non-key attachment with swivel cables. 3. Have a thumb rest for comfort. 4. Have a selection of beautiful colours available, with a preference for either a single colour for the entire set, or different colours for different sized hooks. 5. A range of sizes including the ever-elusive 7mm hook and larger sizes up to 9, 10 and 12mm. 6. A nice case that holds all the hooks, cables and stoppers safely, securely and compactly. A pouch for some scissors or a tape measure is a bonus but it's not the end of the world if it doesn't have one. Whew! I hope that's not too much to ask, but I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with!
@cindymello5394 Жыл бұрын
Ahhh this is so exciting!!! My dream hooks would be: -METAL. I don't care what kind. Any sort of metal is all I could ever want. None of that "plastic for bigger sizes" nonsense. -The thumbrest sounds like a great idea, and I'd love if it were there, but I wouldn't be heartbroken if it wasn't. -Nothing smaller than 5mm, and going up as far as you'd like. In a perfect world it would also have that elusive 7mm and maybe 9mm -Swivel cords, of course. If you can basically just get the Mindful ones, that'd be perfect. -Hybrid head would be nice. Susan Bates-type inline are Too inline for me; for regular crochet I generally go for tapered Boye-style. But hybrids are nice, even when they lean towards inline. I also think hybrid would make the most amount of people happy rather than going to either extreme. (Dreamz and Ginger heads are fantastic, imo.) -Pointy, but not TOO pointy. Enough to get under the stitches and all, but not so sharp you're just stabbing yourself and splitting the yarn. Rounded point??? -I mean....if we're talking dreams, it'd be amazing if they were pretty :) but if it hit everything else they could be the plainest hooks in the world and it would be irrelevant Also, for regular crochet hooks: -Metal -Once again I think hybrid would please the most people. Like, I want tapered, but I think for a whole set, going down the middle is the best route. -Ergonomic, soft grip. And not a 10-mile-long shaft before you get to the rubber (or whatever material) like the ergonomic Susan Bates--as a pencil-gripper I just end up holding the thumbrest, and like, I could use a non-ergonomic hook to do the same thing for less money without having to deal with the extreme inline hook that traps my yarn too much, what are we doing here. Think like Clover Amour or Soft Touch, or Tulip, style handles! -Speaking of Clover.....Clover I love you but oh my god the thing where the bigger sizes are plastic instead of metal. WHY. The squeaking and the drag is so bad with plastic. So: dream hooks would have bigger sizes in metal. One project I have right now uses a 9mm hook and it was PAINFUL to finally find one (1) single metal hook. Also, I mean, again, if we're talking IDEAL, I'd want to spend a max of around 100 bucks. Much more than that gets hard to justify. At the very least, not the "close to 200" ones. Also ideal would be if they could be sold separately and not just sets! Even though I'd probably get the set :) I have no real opinions on the cases other than like, not those clear plastic ones, but you hate those anyway so I can't imagine that being a possibility lol. I guess ideal...sturdy-ish and zippered? Maybe an option to upgrade to leather? Good luck and have fun designing!!!

Not only do the cables drive me crazy, the size on the needle indeed does rub off and also some coating on the golden plastic ends has come off. So they are really starting to show wear after quite some use. Safe to say this hobby is sticking with me and thanks to this comprehensive review I felt confident enough to pick a new set. I found the Tulip set for 130 euros, which by the looks of it seems to be a steal. It is the old colors as your original set. I cannot wait to start using them.

Ive lost a few hooks from sets and have been unable to purchase that size again because they only come as a set. * Features - the size of the hook shown on the hook, pointed hook end, a deeper throat, thumb rest, swivel interchangeable cords with no need for a tool to connect, and a longer hook length. * Metal hooks would be my wish. * Color - a neutral color. I have gorgeous colored hooks but I can't use them because they distract me when I use them. * Cost - Value for money. I paid $180US for the Seweralla Tunisian hooks and when you do the dollar conversion it cost me $260 Australian Dollars, and then I had to add international shipping on top of that. So I have to believe the product I am buying is worth the money because it cost me just shy of $300 for these hooks. * Case - a good protective case that is easy to clean and in fun colors. Have fun and a wonderful time designing your hooks. Warmest regards 🙂

Oooh congrats Toni! Wood hooks, pointy heads, screw on cords I don’t want to play around with keys. Make them pretty! I love dyed woods, or two tones. A nice finish so the yarn glides. Give me a range of sizes, some small, some in between and some for chunky yarns. 8 hooks at least! A cloth case that zips in a TLC colour, like orange and mustard. Or something moody like a navy. Give me a good measuring tape!

Great reviews! Something I'd point out about the KnitPro hooks is that it was the only brand I could find (at the time I was looking a couple years ago) that makes a 7.0mm tunisian hook, which is super hard to find, and being someone who crochet's on the tighter side having a 7.0mm to use when I need to size up has been great. Sometimes 6.5 wasn't enough and an 8.0 was too much. And I agree with others that sets for tunisian should be larger sizes as standard.

I can hardly wait to see what you come up with. But, since you asked: My ideal Tunisian set would be interchangeable or fixed cords in smaller sizes (my most-used hooks are 3 and 5 mm -- I like working with fingering- and sport-weight yarn), polished aluminum for extra glide, and pointed, tapered heads (like Boye). I like a thumb rest to help orient my hook, and I like super flex, swivel cords -- I think Addi's are my favorite cord. I don't need a fancy case b/c I keep all my hooks in a pencil book with elastic straps. In fact, I think I would ask for them to be open stock, so I didn't get more of the larger sizes that I just don't use. So exciting!

I'm always so surprised how much you love your Clover bamboo set- I hate the way they drag on natural fibers! Dream set: metal with engraved sizing, swivel cords with light stoppers that don't clunk all over, non-swivel screw-on straight ends a-la Furls (drool) for smaller projects, and a container with no zipper, buttons, latches, or anything that has to be manhandled to open again over and over, like maybe a magnetic closure or like a pencil case. Love your videos! Can't wait to see what you dream up in Tunisian hooks!

Toni, I'm so excited for you (and us!) that you're working on your own Tunisian crochet hooks. My preferences for Tunisian crochet hooks based on my experience: #1- Metal #2- I will only use a swivel cord. I like the Chiagoo and the Clover cords for this reason. #3- I like the length of the Clover hook best because it's longer than the Chiagoo hook, but I prefer the Chiagoo tip because it is deeper than the Clover, which makes it easier for me,when doing the return pass in Tunisian. #4- If you plan on offering a set of hooks, I feel that the smallest size offered should be a 5 mm. Since we often go up an few mm in Tunisian, I don't see the point of offering anything smaller than a 5mm hook. Therefore, the set should offer bigger sizes than many of the sets I've seen, using the same logic. I'd like to see a nice case, similar to those I've seen for knitting needles (Addi, Chiagoo, for example). I think sometimes the crochet cases are not given the same attention as the nicer sets of knitting needles (Addi, Chiagoo, for example). Thank you, Toni, for asking for our feedback!

I'm DYING to see your set! My Dream set: 1. Metal!!! (brushed aluminum) 2. Clover Amour Hybrid Head (or leaning towards a pointy inline) 3. Thumb rest 4. Swivel cords 5. Addi Click connection! (no tools) 6. Longer shaft for those of us with larger hands 7. Metric and US size embossed or engraved (printing can wear off) 8. Ability to join at both at both ends of the cord (no fixed stopper) so you could crochet in the round (or use with interchangeable knitting needles!)

I'm SO EXCITED FOR A TONI TUNISIAN SET. i honestly only have one cuz i cannot justify more than that. but i can justify it to myself if it's to support you. You've done so much for me with your videos so I will buy your yarn and your hooks all day. I feel like I know you will cover a lot of things I care about: flexible cords, longer hooks that fit my big hands, a pointier tip and a smooth hook. I think we have pretty similar taste there. I do like the soft thumb indent you showed on your aluminum hooks, I think that is a good compromise between allowing some ergonomics without widening the hook in a way that will stretch your stitches. I love love love hook sets where each size is is a different color. This is both beautiful and helps me remember what hook I'm working with (I should probably learn to memorize sizes but like you pointed out, there are so many ways to measure them). I also have a pie in the sky dream that cord length be customizable. By this I mean I would like it if I could cut the cord to the lengths I need for my usual project sizes and then put the stopper on it securely. Often I only need like an extra 2 inches and it drives me batty that in order to crochet a scarf I have to attach 8 inches of cord that will flop around. And finally, since I think you prefer working with thicker yarn, I would say I would want it to at least go down to 3.5mm in hook size, but honestly as far as 2.5 would be ideal. As for traditional crochet hooks, honestly all the same except in that case the ergonomics are more important, and I honestly only have a good plastic set I really like. I know, that's on me! But I love my pryms so if you release one, I'm hoping for metal or wood or oh, maybe resin? I would love a beautiful resin set. Good luck, I'm super excited for your hooks!

My Tunisian crochet hook set would start at 3.5mm and go up from there. I never use bulky yarn so really large mm hooks would never get used. They would be made from polished birchwood in a beautiful light to medium blue (I loved the blue and gold ones you showed us), be long enough for us big-handed gals, have pointy tips and swivel cords that don’t need tools that don’t kink or have a memory. They would also have beautiful stoppers. If you can throw in some gold in the connections and stoppers that would be a real plus. I’m so happy you are getting recognized for your accomplishments in crochet and Tunisian crochet and will soon have gorgeous hooks to offer the world!

I found you about a month ago and love your passion and positivity. I started a historical temperature blanket as a gift for a friend 2 weeks ago and already completed 5 months. Your tips were invaluable thank you. I was bought a set of knit pro/prym interchangeable hooks for Christmas and immediately realised I needed a swivel hook so bought a mindful cord. For the ideal hooks, aluminium, smooth with enough of a pointed head. Must be interchangeable and locking - pretty colours like thee Debbie hooks would be nice and a case that will hold cables, ends and with space for scissors etc. Either include 2 hooks or option to buy additional hooks. Maybe a customisable set? The option to replace smaller sizes with 2nd hook in preferred size and most importantly not to expensive and available in the UK.

congratulations!! you’re the reason i got into tunisian crochet so the news is wonderful to hear! my ideal set: - bamboo or coated wood (honestly i’ve never tried a metal tunisian crochet hook but id be interested in a brushed aluminum set too!) ideally a smoother/slicker finish than my clovers; more like a chiao goo, tulip, or knitters pride ginger. - personally i don’t like super colorful hooks, i think a natural wood/bamboo look or uniform metal looks more elegant. - subtle thumb rests may be a plus for metals but i don’t feel too strongly about this. - swivel cord that is flexible and smooth at the connection (i may be the odd one out here but i don’t mind tightening tools) - sizes 3.5mm - 12mm+, including 7mm! metric units please - longer hooks for comfort (think chiao goo, tulip, clover) - pointed hook head (but not sharp like a susan bates inline, i still prefer a bit of a hybrid shape) and enough depth in the neck to hold the yarn with (sometimes i struggle with my clovers) - zip case with structure!! and pockets! and a non-plastic-y case (i’m looking at you denise)

I'm so excited about your own hooks! I like the metal with the brushed finish, the longer hook style, interchangeable swivel hooks with a softer plastic so they don't stay curled, slightly rounded point tip. Maybe some type of a zippered case. I like the looks of that one case you showed that had the printed sizes on the case. Somewhere in the size range like you said of maybe 4-12. But nothing smaller than 4. I know it may cost a little more but it would be totally worth it to have a great set of hooks!! I have the clover tekumi set and its nice but I love the way brushed metal feels when I crochet with it.

That's a lot of hook sets, and CONGRATS on your collab! I hope to buy your new tunisian hook set once it gets released! I actually got the tulip carry t tunisian crochet hook set for just shy of 85 dollars which is SUCH A STEAL from a seller in Vietnam! I love this set so much because of the swivel cords, and this was the first set that caught my eye when watching Ms. Toni's first Tunisian crochet set reviews. What an Ideal tunisian crochet hook set should have: - Wooden or metal hooks with a hybrid shape (more or less inline) - Swivel hooks (they should be a standard by now🥲) - larger hook sizes to accommodate for curling and thicker yarns - a nice case that is sleek yet fashionable and functional (protects the hooks) - some notions such as tapestry needles and a gauge

Tony, as you know . . .We love you girl! YOU KNOW we'll be here to support you. 🤩 How exciting! Just let them know that we are capable of breaking Lion Brand, Hobbi can *NOT* keep up with us (still bitter about them being out of stock . . . during Xmas buying season!). So, make sure they make enough for us! I know you are going to come up with something amazing because you ACTUALLY use tunisian crochets. *There is NO ONE better positioned to do this than you!!!!* I am sure most of the hooks in the market are designed by people that never knit. I would love something that is long enough (as you said), with a pointy tip (as you said), with a thumb rest (as you said), in gorgeous colors (as I know you will do!). I don't know who the heck needs a 3.0mm hook? Why not the larger sizes so I can use chunkier yarn, give me a 10, 12, 14 mm!!! (or option to add on for those that do big blankets!) I find myself going into much larger sizes as it really prevents my shoulder from hurting. I would love it if they had swivel cords like the Mindful swivel cords. I think what will make or break will be how smooth and well they glide. Please don't give us a huge heavy stopper at end. There is no need! And, above all, I would LOVE something that has the size somewhere embossed in LARGE print for old ladies with bad eyes like me. Also, I would love a way not to have a key. I hate having to use a key because I lose them all the time. I don't like the Denise system and they cord has come undone a few times. The cherry on top would be if they are compatible with the Mindful Swivel cords. And, cord large enough to knit a nice wide blanket on the bias!!!!! We are talking HUGE. I want a way to join cords perhaps, but not have them come apart. Just a small wish list. LOL ! ! ! A 7mm please! Also, I buy MULTIPLE hooks to leave with multiple projects. Allow me to buy specific singles to add to my kit (I have 5 6.5mm hooks!). The case should have a few extra empty spaces to put my extra duplicate hooks . . . or super chuncky large add on sizes. We are here EAGERLY waiting for you to design the perfect set of hooks. YOU GOT THIS ! ! ! :) 😄😍🤩

My aunt has a set that the metal color matches the handle color which is SO cute. The size etched and not just printed on is a must! Can't wait to see what you and your crew come up!

I would ask for something along the line of the Dyak Craft hooks with swivel cords in at least 3 different sizes. I personally do not like a thumb rest on my Tunisian hooks. I do a lot of in the round, so either a set of 2 of each hook with a connector to make a double ended hook, or a set of metal double ended hooks with a more pointed head. The Addi hooks are too rounded. Also, make them beautiful to look at. I have the knit pro gingers and the lantern moon. They are stunning to look at as well use. My Lantern Moon cords as coated metal that swivel. I have no complaints using them. Congrats on this new project for you!🎉

Excellent video. I have been going back and forth about purchasing a set because of the things i dont like by one or the other. I have purchased enough regular hooks that can only be classified as "decor'. I am not interested in making the costly plunge for Tunisian without being thrilled. So here's my needs. I love a smooth metal head. It has to be pointy, so a hybrid is great. A swivel cord is mandatory, and the cord needs to be a cabke and not that hard plastic. It should also have some length, I like you have larger hands. Sizes 5 -15 would be nice but i can use my straight Tunisian for projects made with smaller yarns so if it begins at 6, I will not care. If you come out with a set, i will take the plunge because we have very similar needs from a set. So proud you you!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉
