So what are the MoEZ Hooks anyway? by Valerie, MoEZ Creator (Co-conspirator) With MoEZ Hooks, projects just about make themselves. The MoEZ Hooks are made from hard wood and are longer and larger in diameter than traditional metal or plastic crochet hooks. They have a rubber stopper at the end that serves two purposes: easier, balanced gripping for more comfortable, ergonomically correct use and to prevent the loops from falling off while working. By using the Tunisian weave, there is less work involved in each project and your finished project is softer and more supple. With the MoEZ Hooks, you can make afghans from charts and cross-stitch patterns or you can choose from the over 50 afghan stitches to create textured designs. The ergonomic design of the MoEZ Hooks helps to alleviate the pain involved with regular crocheting by allowing the crocheter to hold the hook more loosely, thereby having less stress on the fingers, hands, wrists and arms; keeping movement of the joints minimal. Additionally, being made of wood makes them more comforting to touch and hold than cold metal hooks. The MoEZ Hooks are sanded to an incredibly smooth finish that will keep the yarn from snagging or catching, improving with use. The wood grain will appear more and more while the hooks continue to get smoother with continued use, allowing the yarn to easily glide over the hook. The MoEZ Hooks are great for children, first-timer crocheters and arthritics to learn and use; fun for all ages! |
