10 Best Crochet Hook Sets – Create with Your Favorite Laces! (Spring 2022)

Whether you are highly experienced at crocheting, or you are just a beginner, the fact remains that you need a high-quality set of tools at your disposal. As such, the BeCraftee Crochet Hook Set may be what you need to get things going.

Let’s start with the number of hooks. Compared to the other items on the list, you may find the nine total hooks provided to be quite limited.

Nevertheless, you can expect the manufacturer to make up for this shortfall in other ways. Users who enjoy crocheting a little too much will lose track of time because of the soft rubber handles. They will allow you to keep at the activity for hours without cramping in the hands and even fatigue.

You also need to look deeper into the handles of the hooks. Each of them is color-coded so that you can tell which tool is for which purpose. You can also check on the letters and words printed to determine what each tool is for.

In addition, the nine hooks are not the only tools in the set. They are complemented by knitting markers, a gauge measure ruler, measuring tape, stitch markers, and even yarn needles. Of course, the whole set is packed neatly in a bag that comes with the purchase.

Why did it make our list?

• Soft handles with a comfortable grip
• Comes neatly packed in a bag
• Has multiple accessories
• Hooks are well-labeled

What is not ideal about it?

• Relatively pricey
• A limited number of hooks

Another hook set, which comes with the bag, is the LIHAO Crochet Hooks. The variety of sizes available with this purchase is quite impressive, given that you get 22 total hooks. Consequently, it would be hard to find a crocheting job that you can’t take on with this set.

As to the sizes, they range from 0.6mm up to 6.5mm. The hooks also have tapered tips for bigger sizes similar to the Editor’s Choice as well as smaller in-line options.

What this set doesn’t have are rubber handles. However, you can always take a break if you feel fatigued from the crocheting exercise. Nevertheless, we don’t advise you to purchase these crochet hooks for arthritic hands.

If you look at the image provided above, you are going to notice the color-coding, too. However, this only applies to about half of the hooks in the set. The rest are silver in color.

Consequently, this toolset may be ideal for pros who can be able to tell the hooks apart by looking at their size. Also, the material makeup is the same for all the hooks.

As far as accessories are concerned, this is also not the most impressive toolset you can find. This is because the only thing added to your purchase is the hook case.

What do we love it for?

• Solid construction
• Wide variety of hooks
• Some of the hooks are color-coded
• Inexpensive
• Come with a hook case

What were we disappointed with?

• No accessories apart from the case
• Not recommended for people with arthritic hands

The WooCrafts Crochet Hooks is another set of crochet hooks for beginners and pros. It comes with nine hooks, which all feature tapered tips. Also, the size of the tips ranges from 2.25mm to 6.0mm.

Concerning the hook material, you will see that the construction is the same with just about all other hooks on the list. Nevertheless, you can also see that a silicone handle covers more than half of the hook’s body. The comfort that accrues from this construction decision is almost unmatched. Therefore, this should be an excellent choice for those who have arthritic hands.

The warranty is also likely to give you an extra reason to buy the set. You get a lifetime replacement guarantee. However, you should also note that some of the accessories aren’t covered by the warranty.

Although the warranty only applies to the crochet hooks and the large eye blunt yarn needles, with these stitch markers and the hook case, you shouldn’t be overly concerned about this.

What makes it special?

• Aluminum construction
• Ergonomic handles
• Lifetime replacement guarantee
• Multiple accessories

What cons did we find?

• The number of hook options is limited
• The warranty doesn’t cover all components in the packet

Another hook set to feature on our list is the BCMRUN Multicolor Aluminum Crochet Hooks. It offers quite a wide range of hook sizes. There are a total of 14 options from the 2.0mm one to the 10.0mm hook.

You will be able to tell them apart easily because they are all color-coded. In addition to that, the size is indicated on the body of each hook.

It has been rumored that tapered tips are more comfortable for beginners to use. As such, this set shouldn’t present any problems. Nevertheless, there are no rules against buying the set if you are already relatively good at crocheting.

Of course, the solid aluminum body of the tools is another positive. If well taken care of, the set should last you quite a while. However, you might need to find ways to reduce cramping and pain in your hands if you plan on crocheting for long periods.

A highly disappointing aspect of the tool is that it doesn’t come with any accessories. Consequently, you might need to spend extra to get a hook bag so you can keep your hooks organized.

Why are we impressed?

• Wide variety of hooks
• Hooks are color-coded
• Size of the hooks is indicated on the thumb rests
• Relatively cheap

What negatives must you be aware of?

• No hook case or accessories
• The construction is a bit slippery

There is not much separating the WooCrafts Crochet Hooks and the Clover Amour Crochet Hook Set design-wise. Both sets have tapered hooks, with the main construction component being aluminum.

Another prominent feature for both sets is the silicone handles. If you look closely at both options, you will also realize that the size of each hook is indicated in the handle. As such finding, the right tool for each job should be a walk in the park.

However, the packages that both toolsets come in are also quite different. There are also a couple of other key differences that you might want to take note of.

The number of hooks in the set is one of them. This one offers ten total hooks while the former only provides nine. However, the extra hook may come at a cost since the set does not offer additional accessories.

Pricing is another major differentiating factor. This tool is quite pricey. However, if the value you get is enough for you, it shouldn’t be too big a deal to part with your cash.

What are our favorite features?

• Ergonomic crochet hooks
• Bright color-coding
• Sizes are indicated on the handles
• Durable aluminum hooks

What could be better?

• The toolset is quite expensive
• As compared to other sets of its caliber, the number of hooks provided seems minimal

Those looking for an in-line style set of hooks will find the Susan Bates Silvalume Crochet Hook Set to be ideal. The set comes in the same package displayed above. As such, you get a total of six hooks at your disposal.

This investment should cost you just over seven dollars.

Since these hooks are made of solid aluminum, it shouldn’t be easy to break them. Also, the manufacturer brags of having heat-treated hooks for added durability. With these hooks, you should get a more consistent gauge and accurate results.

You also get a transparent packet that contains the hooks and shows the sizes available. As such, you can tell that the smallest is 3.75mm, while the biggest one is 6.6mm hook.

If you find the variety of the toolset to be enough, you can spend the money and have it delivered to you.

What are our favorite features?

• Relatively inexpensive
• Durable hooks
• Transparent case that as well indicates the sizes of the hooks included

What could be better?

• Handling can be a strain especially to newbies
• With extensive use, some of the color on the hooks is likely to come off

You might be a complete novice to the crocheting trade. If so, you might want to bring in the LOOEN Set of Crochet Hooks. This is solely due to the variety of tools that it avails to you.

Consequently, if you make this purchase, you will have almost everything you need in a convenient carry bag. This should also make it hard for you to lose any of the components in storage.

Seventeen tapered hooks are provided with some being as small as 0.6mm. However, none of the options are larger than 6.0mm. Also, one section of the carry case contains color-coded hooks. This is in stark contrast to the other section that only holds hooks with blue handles.

Nevertheless, you should be able to tell the blue hooks apart by reading the handles. The blue crochet hooks are smaller ones since they only range from 0.6mm to 1.75mm in size. As to 2mm and above, look towards the colored options.

A few other accessories with the purchase include a stitch holder, yarn needles, needlepoint protectors, row counter, gold pin, and more. Unfortunately, not everyone was satisfied with the plastic handles.

What do we love it for?

• An extensive set of accessories
• A collection of color-coded options
• A wide variety of hooks
• All hooks are well labeled concerning the size

What were we disappointed with?

• Some users consider the grip to be too small
• Also, the plastic has been noted not to be of high quality

Not many hook sets come with a 10.0mm option. As such, both this set and the BCMRUN Multicolor Aluminum Crochet Hooks stand out by including it in their collection.

You should know that the length is identical at 5.9inch for all hooks provided. The hooks also are well polished and multicolored. This makes it easier to pick the right one from your crocheting toolbox. However, you will need to purchase one separately. Therefore, you will have to spend more money if you decide that this option is for you. Still, at sub-eight dollars, most users won’t mind the extra expense.

Speaking of extra expenses, there are a lot of other accessories needed for crocheting. Examples include stitch markers, gauge measure rulers, and more. If you don’t already own some, you will need to part with a few extra bucks for them since they are not included in the packet.

However, the value you get for the money is undeniable with this set.

What do we love it for?

• Solid construction
• Wide range of hook size options
• Quite affordable
• Color-coding

What were we disappointed with?

• No accessories or storage bag included
• US sizes are not indicated

The manufacturer of the Athena’s Elements Crochet Hooks set is quite proud of the product they put out to market. Some people will appreciate that the product has US sizes indicated on the handles. As such, you won’t have to convert the figures to deduce how to use each hook.

You will also notice a difference in shaft sizes to coincide with the size of the hook. For example, larger hooks have 2-inch shafts, while smaller ones feature a 1.75-inch length. This is because bulky yarns are more likely to be used with bigger hooks.

Comfort is another area the manufacturer took into consideration. As such, the fun-colored and easy-grip handles had to be included. These tools feel incredibly smooth, and they allow you to use it for longer periods without causing strain or fatigue. Furthermore, the non-slip design will enhance the user’s experience with them. Unfortunately, it can be hard for some to read the markings, and some people reported that they were not that durable as expected.

What stands out?

• Relatively wide range of hook options
• Color-coded and labeled handles
• Comes with yarn needles
• Shafts are customized for multiple jobs

What cons did we manage to find?

• Labeling is hard to read on some of the options
• Could be more durable

Some users may feel that the 24 hooks in the set are worth the 17 dollar price point. Nevertheless, the manufacturer goes over and above this by adding a few other accessories as well. These are the yarn needles, measure tape, and locking stitch markers.

However, before getting to that, the design of the hooks is impressive. This is the case with the color-coded thicker options, which also have rubber handles.

Additionally, you will get smaller hooks that boast silver color. Despite looking different, the construction material is the same.

Also, while you may not be able to tell from the image, the case pictured is quite sturdy. Another positive element of the case is that it can accommodate almost all the accessories. Just be mindful that some users reported missing scissors in their package. Moreover, the stitch markers here are not of the best quality.

What are its best features?

• Well-designed case
• Solid stainless steel construction
• A lot of accessories
• Inexpensive considering the number of items in the package

What could be improved?

• The stitch markers in the pack are not the best quality
• Some users report missing scissors in their packs
