November 8, 20169 yr Popular Post comment_83216 A couple of years ago, I made my wife a set of 12 ergonomically designed crochet hooks. Then I made a rack for them. She will never use them all but she wanted all of them. Long story short, she misplaced 2 of her favorites. That is where she says "Can you make me two more?" As luck would have it, I had two spare ( less than perfect) handles. I was able to salvage one today, will try the other tomorrow. They were all made of exotic wood scraps. Report

November 8, 20169 yr Author comment_83268 The design actually does reduces stress, it is easy to hold on to with a bulb there rather than to grip a small metal shaft. I first made up a couple made of pine that I kept altering to fit her small hands. When she felt good about the design, I made a good one Report
November 8, 20169 yr comment_83280 I can see why she would not use all of them - they are way to nice to do that Report
November 9, 20169 yr comment_83449 Great project - and good on you for still having a couple of "not so perfect" handles. Report
November 9, 20169 yr comment_83460 Fantastic job you did, just beautiful work, and the idea is great too, never get tired of looking at those. Like all the different patterns, still never figured out how you come up with those. Herb Report
