Wow, that's a very impressive collection, very nice! I still love the one I won with your give-away last year, that one is also so beautyful! I see the picture of it is still on the rightside of your blog :-)
Thanks Barbara. Back in 2002 I started selling my hooks on Ebay - I did not do well at all. It really wasn't worth the time and effort. One day I might try Etsy to see if that would work. :)
I think the problem is, that ebay is mainly for bargain-hunters who aren't willing to pay much. Which is okay, if people (the sellers) just want to get rid of their stuff. But you should really try to sell your hooks somewhere where people are willing to spend a little more money on an item because they appreciate its worth. I'd buy one :)
I've never worked with a hook like that. I imagine it would feel really different. Have never seen granny squares joined with an opening where the four corners would meet. Very interesting. And your African flowers are very pretty. Best wishes for the weekend. Tammy
Your collection of hooks is quite impressive. Just like Tammy, I have never worked with a hook that has the gripping end built up. I have seen a few other bloggers who are using them and they all seem to love them, at least I haven't heard any complaints. Hope your weekend is going well. We finally got a small thunderstorm last night. We planted 18 tomato plants and I have been hauling water in the evenings to keep them alive. We could sure use more rain here in Ohio.

Oh dear Debi, I was very happy as I had received my new crochet hooks set. But when I saw your hooks... Your hooks are so so nice. I like all of them. I will look the international stores again to find your hooks...:))
Thanks for taking the time to leave a message - it always puts a smile on my face. If you have a question - post it here and check back - I will always answer you. :)

And I love your hooks! I'm pretty sure someone has asked before, but have you ever thought about selling your hooks on etsy?
