Are the TOTC hooks more like Boye or Bates hooks. Some of the wood hooks I've seen are like Boye, which I don't prefer.

It is pretty, but can you use it????

[MarvieN]

well I just got her and so far haven't had a chance to put her to work, but looking at her with a bates hook and a boye hook on either side of her the h ook and the part just beneath the hook looks more like bates than boye. If I have sunshine tomorrow I can take a pic of the three of them for you to look at. I'm hoping I'll love her, because honestly I like all of my boye hooks much better than the few bates books I have.

For some reason I see no pic, but could just be my stupid comp. right now...I hope once you use the hook, Marvie, you like it!
Edited to say I can see it now and she's so pretty! looks like cocobolo?

Deneen - I think on the TOTC website it says that Bill makes his hooks more in the style of Boye, although I may be wrong and that could just be his sizings. I know he's developed his shape himself. The hooks are totally functional, since the turning is down far enough to keep away from the yarn.

Yup she's a cocobolo =)
