surprisingly smooth
was skeptical about buying a standard aluminum hook online thinking it might catch the yarn but the tapered throat makes single crochet stitches glide super smoothly. turned out much better than expected for basic blanket work

travel friendly tool
ye wala hook bag me daalke easily le jata hu. 6 inch size hai toh pocket ya small pouch me aaram se fit ho jata hai. thread projects ke liye anodized aluminum material kaafi durable hai aur weight bhi bilkul nahi hai
