Yarniss 17 Sizes Lighted Crochet Hooks Set,Lighted Crochet Hooks Set- Rechargeable Crochet Hook with Latest Case, NVC018

I really love the two different light settings on this hook set! The plastic feels a bit flimsy and the hook doesn't always hold a charge while off, but that's okay! it charges super fast and the battery life is pretty decent! it's all worth it to be able to crochet in the dark, even with darker colors and black yarn!

Like any hook, they won't work for everyone and they won't work on every fiber, not these work for me with acrylic in dim lighting. I often crochet while my family plays video games and the only light is from the TV, usually with some dark horror, so the fact that I can use these to work with black yarn in those circumstances is kind of impressive. The battery lasts quite a long time- took me a couple weeks to need to charge it and I stitch several hours a week, almost every day. It took maybe forty min to charge? I didn't pay attention and expected longer, so I can't be sure. I was hesitant to work with the plastic wrench, and I won't use the thinner hooks if I need something tighter, but these are great for amigurumi.I will say that the dimmer light setting helps me more than the brighter one because I have astigmatism and bright lights warp for me, but I have used the brighter light literally as a flashlight to count stitches.I had three hooks that didn't fit right. I think they were too shallow to form a tight fit with the handle, so when I tried to use them, they would turn and fall out just by stitching. I contacted customer support and they were very nice, appreciative m approachable, and ended up ending me a whole new set without having to return the original. That was surprising because I was expecting just to get the 3 hook heads that weren't fitting. I took them out and am gifting the rest of that set to someone in my stitching group. Paying it forward and whatnot.

I have had this for about 6 months now, for starters, this set is very nice for how many sizes you get, I got this because of the variety and I like to use lots of different sized yarn from very thick yarn as well as down to worsted weight yarn, so can’t really complain much about that. I don’t use the lighted feature often, but if that’s what you’re looking for then the light works very well. I’ve had it for many months and only needed to charge it once so far and when I did it charged perfectly fine, although like I said I do not use the feature much.A somethings I would like to see improved is the material the actual changeable hooks are made of, it would be a lot better if the hooks were made from the metal you get in other hooks at regular craft stores (I would gladly swap out the lighted feature for better hook material). The problem with the plastic is for one that sometimes it will squeak when you are working your stitches and it has annoyed me quite a few times to the point where I had to stop crocheting for the day (I noticed this using acrylic yarn, but not polyester yarn) and two of the hooks got tinted the color of yarn I was using, the hooks on the left side bottom right corner is tinted yellow and the one on the right side upper left corner is tinted red (you can see this in the picture) some of the hooks also seem to not have a deep enough groove in the hook to properly grab yarn through stitches, but if you’re an experienced crocheter you can adjust pretty easily, if you’re a beginner I wouldn’t suggest these hooks.Another thing I would like improved is the black rubber grip part of the handle. The grip on my handle has slid off many many times which gets very annoying when you’re in the groove, I’ve resolved that by gluing it down myself, but it sucks to have to do that at all.

They do squeak but that's the only down side. You can see their sizes on the bottom of the hooks so that's a plus. You can definitely do it in the dark I tried it and you can do that. The squeak sound sound is annoying but I'll get used to it.

I ordered this set so that I could continue working on projects without having to use bright lighting in the evenings while in bed or watching TV. My only complaint is that the hook does not hold a charge well at all! My biggest frustration is that the charge depletes whenever it’s unplugged even when not in use. I’ll plug it up after use and have placed it in the carrying case for travel and overnight the battery was drained even thought I hadn’t used the hook at all after charging. This might be a defect in the product I received as I haven’t seen this concern in other reviews.Otherwise, I have really enjoyed using it! The ergonomic handle has been great and really helpful for keeping my wrists comfortable, even with having carpal tunnel. The hooks seem to work well with the different types of yarn I’ve been using recently. Honestly the only reason I have not returned the product is because of the design of the handles and hooks.
