Supplies - Hooks and Needles

I generally use a #12 with yarn, and a #14 with the cordonet Special. If you work tightly or loosely, you may also want a #13 for a little flexibility. #13 through #16 comes with a small sheath to protect the fine tip.

Compact Handled crochet hook:

These are the Inox Brand European Steel hooks adapted to compact size. The steel hooks ends in a round shaft that is set in a short plastic handle. When in use, the large plastic tip protector is used to extend the handle to a comfortable size. These are great for carrying around something to do in your pocket or purse. The protected tip won't poke through pockets or bags.

The 4-0 size are the strong Inox needles from Germany, smooth towork with but not so slippery so the stitches will fall off. They are long enough so the sharp points won't be poking your palms while working.
