Clover 3672 Amour Crochet Hook Set, 10 sizes

Although I have crocheted for many years, I am no expert. I recently ordered one hook as a spare to the one I’ve been using for quite awhile. I have no idea what brand the original is, it’s one of a set. The “spare” is of lesser quality that didn’t take long to figure out. It’s not comfortable in my hand and I can only assume there’s a tiny burr somewhere on the hook because I can feel it pull on the yarn. I went back to searching and found this Clover brand after a bit of research. I liked what I’d read and although pricey, I bit the bullet. Delivered today, I decided to try one hook on my current project out of curiosity. I am not disappointed and am actually impressed. First, the hook is very comfortable in my hand. I have worked with it a couple of hours and there’s no fatigue in my wrist or hand. I have both carpal tunnel and arthritis and all is well. The smoothness of the hook is amazing. I read this in other reviews and wasn’t sure what it meant, I do now. There is absolutely no drag on the yarn, it slides easily on the hook. I have noticed the yarn I prefer has been “splitting” and I thought it was the yarn. I must be wrong because it literally has not split with this hook. My work also seems to be going faster. My hands are probably on the smaller size and I like the length of the hooks, not too long but not short either. In today’s mail I got a needle craft catalogue and these same hooks were listed $17 higher, on sale. They are pricey but this Amazon seller has a fantastic price. I have now been educated on the difference between your average crochet hooks and those of quality, I wish I had known sooner. If you are someone who actively crochets, do yourself a favor, treat yourself to these hooks. You won’t regret it.

This vendor used to sell counterfeit Clover Amour crochet hooks, but NOW they're real! I was hesitant to buy these hooks on Amazon because I was scared to get fake ones for $43. But I've been looking at the reviews from recent years and they're consistently good! I even compared the pics from Amazon's reviews to Clover Amour's website & they looked exactly the same, so I assumed they were real. Well, I took the leap and bought some for myself from this Amazon shop & I don't regret it. I am so happy they're selling authentic Clover Amour crochet hooks for such a good price!!! These are $89.99 at my local craft store and it's outrageous... & Yes, the packaging has the gray foam on the bottom, there's "Japan" on the back & the colors are correct for each hook size! These are just some ways to check if it's authentic. Anyway, now that i've explained why they're real. I want to explain why they're amazing! They're lightweight, but good quality. I'd say that they're better for smaller hands/average sized female hands. These reviews aren't lying, the hook slides like butter on the yarn. They're so comfortable to hold, the thumb rest is perfect. The hook itself extends all the way down to where it says "Clover" on the handle. I don't regret spending my money on these. I don't know what else to say, but the performance of these hooks speaks for themselves! I've heard people say they like Clover Amour better than Tulip Etimo hooks. But i think it just comes down to preference☺️.

These are my absolute favorite crochet hooks. Perfect for beginners and pros. They are very comfortable and glide so well with any type of yarn. They are on the pricier side but you get several sizes. When I started crocheting a few years ago I bought cheap crochet hooks. I would get so much wrist pain. These help so much when crocheting for hours. I can’t recommend this brand enough.

Let me tell you a little story. I have a whole set of another brand's comfort grip hooks and I thought they were fantastic. Once, I was on a trip, and needed a hook size I hadn't packed, so I went to the nearest craft store only to be disappointed that they didn't have my brand. I bought a Armour hook, thinking that it had to be better than skipping my evening crochet/relaxation time. The Armour hook was amazing. It slid through stitches like a hot knife through butter, and old fashioned wool simply glided over the hook like it was silk. I was doing a no-brainier piece, so I was mostly watching TV while crocheting at a leisurely pace, without paying much attention to my progress. When the news finished, I was shocked to see how much was done. I had crocheted at least as fast as I do when I'm actually focused on my work. The only problem was that when I got home, my once-prized hook set felt inferior. I could feel the yarn dragging along the hook in a way I'd never noticed before and I realized that the friction made my movements less fluid than they were with the Armour hook. When I switched back to the Armour hook, there was a noticeable speed improvement, because the stutter in my rhythm had disappeared. I've never been a speed demon, but it was exciting to suddenly be able to get more done without more effort. I felt like I'd found a magic hook. The only thing that made sense was to buy the whole set. So, here's the actual review: These hooks will spoil you for any others. They are extremely comfortable and stable in a pencil-like grip and Clover's hook shape is much easier to work with than that of other brands. They offer an incredibly smooth crochet experience, making even tricky fibers a breeze to stitch. With these hooks, I'm able to crochet more quickly and with less hand fatigue than experience has taught me to expect. In short, I just love them. I wish I could get a few larger than 6mm. I recently did a quickie project with chunky yarn, and after a brief go with the recommended hook size (in plastic), I decided that I'd rather use my 6mm Armour and just compensate for the gauge discrepancy with extra stitches. That I would prefer to do extra work just so I could use one of these hooks, pretty much shows how much I love Armour.

I was leery about spending nearly $50 on a set of ten hooks. I already had a "good" set that was loads cheaper. However, when crocheting with some polyester for a "dollie blanket", those hooks kept sticking. Also when crocheting with "splitty" yarns, those other hooks just made matters worse. Since using the Clovers, I have noticed my pieces are cleaner, I do not get "stickies", and as for "splitty" yarns, these hooks are shaped in a way to make it slide with ease through your working stitch. The metal is smoother than any I have felt before in anything metal- smoother than silk. The grips are nice and non slip, easy to hold, especially if you are older. The length is not for tunisian- I can get a bobble (worsted weight yarn) of 8 loops on comfortably. The hook itself looks to be all one piece inside of the grip, so I believe longevity will be long. It will last. Definitely worth it to invest in for your own crafts or to gift to another. Best I have ever used.

I love these crochet hooks. They fit my hands and work well.

I’m fairly new to crochet, intermediate level. I bought these on a whim, because all of the crochet videos I watch - the creators seem to love these hooks. The say they are smooth and make a huge difference. I decided to give them a shot. Let me tell you - they are not lying!!!!!! THEY MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE!!!!!!!!! I’ve already started a project and I’ve never chained 120 so quickly, nice even chains, yarn stays on the needle, etc. everything they say is true! Try them you won’t regret it.

I just picked up crochet again after a number of years. I like both Susan Bates and Clover brands. I purchased these because I saw a number of YouTube videos and online reviews of these. I took a chance in these. They are WONDERFUL! They are so smooth. The handles are so comfortable. I highly recommend this set of hooks to everyone.
