There is no difference in hook size. Tunisian hooks are distinguished from regular hooks by the length of their handles. The Tunisian hook is significantly longer than a regular hook, since the number of stitches on the hook is much higher in Tunisian crochet. It is easy to hold 4 or 5 stitches with a regular hook. 15 to 20 stitches can be held by a Tunisian, and more can be added as necessary
It appears that the thumb rests of the hooks I purchased are not present.

One of the biggest problems I have with them is that the shaft is rough near the hook which causes my There is one that cuts my skin so badly.

Since they are made of much lighter aluminum than my regular crochet hooks, it will take some time to get used to them. Tunisian crochet was something I explored many years ago (over 20), but I haven't done it for quite some time. It's not surprising that I haven't found many of my crafting supplies since I relocated twice and today I'm having to purchase many tools I once owned. Having found this set while searching for a "cheap" set, I decided to buy it. Although I may find the lighter weight to be a "pro" for some, it is a "con" for me, as I am experiencing You might assume the lack of weight (or weight at all) is due to the lower quality, and that's certainly There are two hooks and two eyes The shafts are smooth, I did not encounter any that were "rough," as some reviewers claim. The numbers/letters do rub off fairly easily. This may be a hit or miss product. I had no problems with mine. It is easy to mark the ends with a Sharpie marker with a fine tip. Another issue may be the fact that the hooks on these are not inline with the screws on the shaft. I'll take it. Most Crochet hooks (for USA consumers) have been shaped so they have "in-ground" tines since about 1985 Hooks that are "line" are those whose head and hook portion face up when they're held. There was a time when some had the inside knowledge The hooks were mostly oriented to the left on most of these lines. It may be difficult for lefties to crochet due to this and other factors.

Tunisian crochet was on my wish list, and I plan to Naturally, I would have to say that. For the hooks to work, we needed them. The quality was excellent and the price was very reasonable. It is heavier than normal crochet hooks, but it is not too difficult if you are used to work with regular crochet hooks, this may be an issue. Once you get used to it, it becomes a habit. In any case, these are a very generous length (you can crochet pieces that are three times as wide as the hook's length, so you have a lot of room to experiment with different yarn weights), and the hook sizes provide plenty of flexibility for different yarn types. Stitching is made easier by the stoppers on the end of the hooks, which fit neatly and are sufficient to keep your pieces secure. It was great fun learning these, and I'm sure there will be many more to come in the future.
Beginners can easily try out Tunisian crochet with these hooks, since they are relatively inexpensive. For scarves and shawls, long hooks are fine, but if you are working on an afghan or wide sweater, you will need corded hooks so you can do as many stitches as you need at one time. These are hooks I am not afraid to carry around and are of much better quality than the more expensive wooden Tunisian hooks, which can be damaged much Since they are packaged in a plastic bag, it is likely you will need to find some sort of storage container.

My rating of 3 stars is based on the fact that I do not like the Boye style hooks for Tunisian weaving because they are heavy. In general, I am used to working with this style, but using an in-line style can work especially well It would be easier for me for me to work with a line hook (Susan Bates style) when there are that many stitches on a The first set of Wood in-line skates I would recommend to anyone who is just starting out These lines hook up to the end of the line.
