Wal-Mart usually carries at least the J and K. I think an H also. They are normally tucked back behind the regular hooks. I don't know that you will find a short double ended hook, though I guess it could be possible. I've not seen any online, but maybe someone who specializes in making hooks? <img border=0 src="http://img28.photobucket.com/albums/v84/crochetville/scratchchin.gif" />

You're wanting the same thing I do! I love to crochet on the double, but find the long hooks really unweildy. I would LOVE to get a short double ended H, I, J. If you find 'em anywhere please post the link!!<img border=0 src="http://img28.photobucket.com/albums/v84/crochetville/shrug.gif" />

i found someone that will make them custom for me out of wood...this is the email that i just recieved...let me know if anyone wants one.....i will be putting an order into him later this month if not early next month being he is busy...

"Melinda,

I can make them as short as you want.

I will have to make them custom, and I am very busy right now, so it might be a while until I can get to them.

The price will be proportional to the others - 50 cents per inch from the ones on the website.

If you are interested, let me know what you need. I will work them in as soon as I can.

Thank you,
Bill"
