London's hook with a twist has an ergonomic twist in the center for easy handling and faster stitching. The throat is extra long to accommodate thicker yarns or combinations of yarns, even at a smaller hook size. The small, medium, and large hooks have icons (star, Smiley face and Peace sign) and their mm size (9mm, 11.5mm, and 20mm) printed on the handles. These are sold as a three pack as well as individually.

Not for left handed crocheters.
Very disappointed that these are for right handed people. I'm left handed and they are not shaped for us lefties. I wish the description had indicated that fact. I hope to sell them to one of my right handed friends.

Nice crochet hook set
I am a avid crocheter and I bought these beautiful crochet hooks because they are very stylish and cool looking. The seller was very prompt in delivering, super quick service. These hooks are well made, the handle is twisted for an ergonomic grip. Doing a few minutes of stitches the hook grabs the working yarn better than the other plastic hook I have. And I feel like I work a bit faster with these. Great investment. Please buy a set and see for yourselves.... my new go to crochet hooks...

Letter and Size in MM included in this
Love this set it is so pretty. It is a great ergonomic set for me.I pretty much have every thing Lion Brand so when I saw this I had to have them.The 9 MM is equivalent to US M/N-13The 11 MM is closeted to US N/P-15 10 MM (depending on the manufacturer the N may be 9 MM or 10 MM check packaging if you use an alternative.)The 20 MM is closest to US S at 19 MM. This is a great hook to use as an alternative to the Q hook for for Lion Brand Homespun Thick and Quick. Gauge will change but it is much easier to crochet with this than the suggested hook size. I always use Q or S.

They are all big
I only overhand crochet with a Tunisian hook. When I regularly crochet I use the elegant eating an hourdourve with a little fork method. And occasionally switch to knife method for breaks. These are not comfortable in the fork/pencil method because they are all big L and above. But if you collect crochet hooks like I do get them. I haven’t looked t any of the projects for these big hooks yet.

Just ok, needed sanding
I had high hopes for these hooks but found them clunky and not smooth enough to glide through the stitches.First of all, I had to sand down several spots that were getting the yarn caught up.I also don't find them any more comfortable than other big hooks

I Like it, but They Could be Better
I ordered these to alleviate the ache in my wrists that I get when working on a big crochet project. They feel very weird in the hand, but once you get the motion down they are pretty cool. I like them a lot, my only wish is that they were a little heavier. The super light plastic gets away from me sometimes, and don't quite catch the yarn the way I would like.

Like a cheap toy, pretty with no substance
The mold that is used to pour the plastic to make the hooks leaves seams that prevent the yarns from flowing on and off the hook, sanded it down but now there more friction than before I sanded. Cheap, pretty, but worthless.

Too hard for delicate hands.
Couldn't use these as they were way too hard on my hands. They may be fine for others?The stars are for the seller who, when I tried to return them, told me to just keep them. This was most kind as the hooks are not very light and would not have been very cheap to return. The orig cost was only @ $10. Kudos to the seller. I'm looking to donate them to a crocheter who might like the style and weight.

They're pretty good
A bit rough on the edges, plastic casted. A nail file helps. They are good if you use right hand knife grip. They feel like they would work for pencil grip left hand.

Disappointed
I was hopeful that these would offer a good alternative to traditional hooks, hands not being what they were and all that, but no. They are poorly finished with rough edges that catch the yarn, and yet in the next breath are so slippery it's difficult to complete anything but a single (US) crochet without wanted to ditch the entire project because the stitches slip right off the hook before you get a chance to complete them.In summary, not good for the hands, not good for the soul.

Good price, but rough seams
Pretty comfortable to hold. I don't crochet a lot so these are the perfect price point for me.
