Tulip Company Tulip Etimo Rose Crochet Hook Set

These are my favourite hooks, I was worried about spending so much money and I really wasn’t sure I’d notice a difference, but, they are comfortable to use and glide threw the yarn with no catching

Very pleased with the look of this crochet hook set very neat and compact as they were purchased as a gift I can’t comment on ease of use.

Perfect gift from the perfect husband!?

A very good product, Nice soft grip, yarn slips through the hook with ease no snagging, Best set i have ever bought. Very well made very even surface.

Got into crocheting later in life. These are slim, comfortable and well balanced. A joy to hold. Good seller, prompt delivery and good communication

Absolutely love it ,

Took the plunge and bought these as a joint mother's day birthday present. I bought from ebay as the set is cheaper on there from the same seller. I also was offered by ebay a £7 off code when I went to purchase which was a nice surprise! I love the set it's very pretty and the lovely case with its useful scissors and darning needles. With my own addition of a few stitch markers I don't have to drag around my large crochet storage bag. However I hate the straps that hold the hooks in place they are extremely tight and it's difficult to remove the hooks and get them back in again. The hooks themselves glide through the work effortlessly. Before purchase I found the numbering confusing and you need to be aware that the large numbers are Japanese sizing. The UK sizing are the smaller numbers next to them in mm. I was slightly disappointed that the numbering is not embossed onto the hook and it is a sticker. Doesn't look like it will easily come off but given the price expected better. On the reverse of hook is a raised Tulip logo. Doesn't bother me but some may find it irritating on the skin. Also at the top of the hook is a bump just where your thumb would be placed so again doesn't bother me but it might be uncomfortable for others. Given the cost I would advise to purchase a different sized hook of same make to ensure it suits you before buying this very expensive set.

I was delighted with the crochet case but unfortunately the tassle fell apart after only a few weeks which was very dissapointing. I have tried to obtain a replacement from Stuff4Crafts who said they couldn't help however I have e-mailed Tulip in Japan who have agreed to send a replacement tassle from Japan.

These are very nice hooks! I was searching for ergonomic hooks to help with pain crocheting (carpal tunnel and joint pain). After some research, saw this brand was recommended by a crocheter I follow for tutorials. Just to be sure (before I plunked down this kind of money hooks), I ordered a 10.5 to try out. Tulip Needle Company Tulip Etimo Rose Crochet Hook, 10.5/6.5mm , knowing that it wasn't included in this set so if I got this, it would extend it. I loved it! Pros: No pain when using these hooks (knife holder). Yarn glides easily, no issues with splitting. It goes through the yarn like butter but most importantly, I don't get wrist pain so can crochet much, much longer without getting tired or having to stop. The handle material is soft and pleasant to touch, and the pinks are very, very pretty. The case is well made and pretty as well. It feels solid and I expect both the case the the hooks to last many years. Cons: The "neck" part of the needle is not overly long, which could be an issue depending on what kind of work you're doing. The sizes are very easy to read, but are on a sticker instead of stamped into the hook. The stickers don't seem like they're about to come off, but it would have been nicer to have the sizes embedded. I would have liked the case to accommodate an extra hook or two to add my previous purchase, although I usually have one out with my current work in progress. It was also challenging for me to spend this much money on hooks - I had to consider it an investment in my health because of pain issue to justify it. I cannot compare it to Clover Armour because I don't have any. I wanted to get one set of awesome hooks instead of several sets of good ones trying to find the right fit. I am pleased with this choice and gave a similar set to my daughter for her crochet. If you're not sure or have never used these, I'd suggest buying a single hook first to see if you like it. I'm glad I took that approach, so I knew what I was getting. Hope that helps! :-)

Tulip hooks are are as smooth as butter to use. The pink ones are identical to the grey and gold ones, so if you don't care about the colour, I'd get those instead as they're cheaper. But the pink ones are the prettiest.

These make a real difference to all projects. Strongly recommend.

Hervorragende Verarbeitung, sehr schönes Etui, leichte und handliche Häkelnadeln. Ein wunderschönes Set, das erstklassig verarbeitet wurde.

Son muy agradables y suaves al tacto. El estuche me encantó. En cuanto al precio y calidad muy bien
