If you’ve never tried a wooden crochet hook then there is no better company to try than Brittany. They’re a small, family-run business that makes the best hook out there. Currently made of New England white birch, you’ll be amazed at how light and comfortable it is. If you suffer from arthritus, then wooden hooks are perfect, as they dont draw out heat from your fingers. The hook nurtures your hands, and in turn, your hands nourish the wood. Brittany hooks are incredibly smooth and consistant in calibration. The wood comes from strictly regulated forests or small woodland owners to ensure proper environmental practices. The beautifully turned final does not interfere with your grip and makes for a beautiful conversation piece. You’ll want to collect the whole set of thirteen sizes.

Previous to Brittany’s use of birch, they made their hooks out of black walnut. You can still find these occaisionally, but the price has skyrocketed. There is no difference in these hooks, other than the wood and color, they have simply become collector’s items due to their scarcity.

Osanna’s Knit and Crochet has been selling Brittany crochet hooks and knitting needles for many years and has an excellent reputation. You cant go wrong by purchasing from them!
