Wednesday Review - Bamboo Crochet Hooks
There are many different types of crochet hooks. You can get metal hooks, plastic hooks, hooks with grips, hooks with handles, and of course wooden hooks. These Bamboo Crochet Hooks are beautiful and they are cheap (they flex back and forth), when I bought them they were $3.03 (USD) currently they sell for $6.99 (USD) which is still a great price. They ship for free because they are sold by and shipped by Amazon - which ships for free when you have an order over a certain amount.
The best advice I can give with any wooden hooks is to oil them before you use them. Sometimes the wood is rough and doesn't always glide as well as it should and oil helps with that. I used regular vegetable oil, any oil you have should be fine (making sure to wipe off excess oil).
