The newest little addition to my family... (my family of crochet hooks that is) A Q-hook!!

It came in the mail yesterday and I'm SO happy :woohoo

This is one of Bill's hooks from Turn of the Century (http://www.turn-of-the-century.com/hooks.htm)... I've already shown hubby the website and how to order more. :fc

:yay2 Very nice! I'm sure you'll get plenty more for Christmas (just talk up how much you love that hook!). It's beautiful, I'm so jealous. :)) :yes

[rebeccav]

oooooooo, looks so scrumptious! i can't wait to get mine for Christmas!!!:hyper

[threeolivemartini]

that is the size i want next.. i went with the biggest one the S.. mine is maple.. i love the way it feels .. i like how is larger hooks arent a foot long they are shorter so you can manage them better...

[Deb]

Oh wow oh WOW! :wowdrool I think I NEED one of these!

[threeolivemartini]

deb you should seriously consider treating yourself they are only 12 dollars !

[Julie]

Are we 'Bill-pushers'? :rotfl

Deb, truly you should. My P hook is about my most favorite hook in the entire would, you would be in love and never want to touch a different one if you did. The price is good and more than reasonable for such works of art because that is really what those hooks are. Absolutely gorgeous!! :heart

Julie.. i think we are Bill pushers.. and I dont care the truth is the truth..

hmm i wonder if we told him we sent him business he would give us a deal? LOL.. just kidding i think his hooks are a deal as it is !!

and i have to say this .. sweetie had some packages sent here and threatened me .. not to open them .. but i can still see where they are from...and i got one saturday from Bill.. I shook it.. sounds like there are several hooks in there!:*ctree

[kariholtz]

ooooooo!
You all are horrible!!!! <img border=0 src="http://img28.photobucket.com/albums/v84/crochetville/nahnahbooboo.gif" />

I go there every now and then and dream.
I come here and you all are tempting me again!!!

[threeolivemartini]

what size would you start with Kari?

[Nay65]

They are very nice. I just got the hooks I ordered for my sister in law and they're really beautiful.

[kariholtz]

I think I would have to start out with a G since it seems to be the hook I end up using most often anymore.

[threeolivemartini]

isnt it funny how we are all doing hte same craft but still have our favourite things..i like the larger hooks best LOL..

[kariholtz]

I love the larger hooks(I think N hook is my fave size for the moment)... but right now it seems everything I am making is with smaller hooks!

[Julie]

The smaller sizes of his that I have I probably spend more time looking at the hook than the yarn in front of me. I can't get over how he does it! :)h

I have been using my f hook and it is made of brazilian tulipwood. I stop and look at it all the time. I love all my hooks from Bill. I even have a pen and pencil from him now (and gave a set to my brother-in-law for Christmas the man who has everything).
