    Susan Bates Silvalume Soft Ergonomic Crochet Hooks Giveaway

    Published: Mar 8, 2021 by Tamara Kelly · 213 Comments

    Susan Bates hooks are a familiar standby hook for most crocheters. But just recently I gave Susan Bates Silvalume Soft Ergonomic Crochet Hooks a try - and I was impressed! Take a look at this special hook and enter to win your 5 favorite sizes on Moogly!

    Susan Bates Silvalume Soft Ergonomic Crochet Hooks Giveaway on MooglyDisclaimer: This post was sponsored by Yarnspirations and includes affiliate links; all opinions are my own.

    The Hook Specs:

    Susan Bates Silvalume Soft Ergonomic Crochet Hooks are the aluminum Susan Bates hooks you know and love - with an ergonomic sleeve that covers everything below the thumb rest.

    As you can see, these are in-line hooks, and they are suited for both knife and pencil grips. The size is printed on both the thumb rest and the soft ergonomic handle - and they're color-coded by size too! They are available in sizes US-E, 3.5mm to US-K, 6.5mm. (And I really hope they add the bigger sizes too!)

    My Experience:

    I learned to crochet with my husband's grandmother's Susan Bates hooks, so on the one hand (no pun intended), this was a return to an old friend. But adding the Soft Ergonomic handles made them so much better!

    I tend to hold my hook in a pencil grip, switching the knife grip for certain stitches. So I was concerned that the ergonomic handle was too far down the hook for my typical style. But I was wrong!

    Susan Bates Soft Ergonomic Hook - pencil hold

    I found that I loved the soft section for pencil grip, and the length was perfect. And when I needed to switch to pencil grip, the thumb rest was right where I needed it! The ergonomic portion cushioned the hook when it rubbed against the webbing between finger and thumb, and felt soft and warm against my palm in knife grip.

      My favorite hook size is a 5.5. I like to work with bulkier yarn, although I'm working on a top right now using a 3.5 hook. It's difficult to hold that thin yarn and hook. Thank you!

      When I first started learning to crochet, the book I looked at instructed me to use hook size 8. Since then it has been my go-to hook size. More recently I've been using size 9 quite often. If I can claim two favorite sizes, those would be them. The worst is when I keep my coveted hook sizes in my works in progress and can't find them when I want to start a new project 😀

      It's hard to choose which one is my favorite because I enjoy using them all depending on the mood and project. Some days I like the small 2.75mm or in another day I'd like to work on bigger yarn and use N or 10mm hook.

      I recently discovered these as they are starting to discontinue the Bates Bamboo line. I originally bought the larger I, J, K to work on a doll bassinett project as I wanted some relief for my hands. These are wonderful hooks.

      An 'I' hook has been my favorite for decades.
      Arthritis and a new scarf pattern required me to use a 'P' hook, and it is fast becoming my new favorite, because the larger size handle is easier on my hands.
      These Susan Bates Silvalume hooks look like my smaller 'I' hook will be more comfortable to use once again. Hooray!

When my grandmother was teaching me to crochet, Grandma called one night trying to figure out what I was doing wrong. She asked, "What size hook are you using?" I answered "H" and Grandma said "Okay" and hung up the phone. My mother was confused and thought someone called me doing a survey of my favorite letter. LOL

      I typically use a 5mm or 5.5mm hook. I just bought a 5.5mm susan bates silvalume the other day! These were the best when I started crocheting (because I always crocheted super tightly like with amigurumi) and I still prefer them for amigurumi. They really make it easier to get in and out of the tight stitches. My tension has relaxed enough over time that I can use any type of hook these days, but susan bates will always have a place in my heart!

      My favorite hook is a G that I inherited from my great-grandmother. It's a light blue and super faded but still is in great shape!

      I'm still kinda new to the Crochet world but ire noticed the G is very comfortable in my hands. When using a steele hook I have to stretch a little more then if I'm using C and above. I've not gotten a chance to use any Susan Bates products yet but I keep reading reviews and they seem like a very good product.

      These are the hooks I taught myself with. I don’t use them anymore, only because they started to feel uncomfortable in my hand. So excited to try them with a new handle!

      I love Susan Bates hooks and have been using them for 50+ years. My favorite size is the H hook.

      I have used Susan Bates aluminum hooks (H/5 and J/6) for my recent blankets. I just started a blanket with dk yarn and I'm realizing that I may need a size I/5.5 to hit the sweet spot! My J/6 hook feels thick enough, but I jammed a foam cover on the H/5 hook for comfort, all the way up over the thumb grip. So this giveaway is perfect timing since I'm intrigued by these ergonomic hooks.

      I also just discovered your tutorials for standing and starting stiches and I can't wait to implement them on the edges of the baby blanket I am starting! Thank you for sharing such innovative techniques!

      H is my favorite hook for sweaters. Right now I am using an I. I try to keep 2 hooks with each project but that isn't always possible so these would be great to add to my hooks.

      My favorite hook size would probably be G or J

      I think I probably use my H hook the most even though the G is my favorite.

      J is my most used hook so I guess it is my favorite, but I also appreciate my smaller hookD. It’s my first time using a hook so small, but it’s going smoother than I ever thought it would.
