I used to love crocheting, but unfortunately I can’t do it anymore because the movements involved in guiding the hook are too painful for my arthritic joints and fingers. I’m not
giving up, though—as long as I can somehow hold a knitting needle, I’ll keep knitting :-)
Since then, I’ve more or less preferred knitting needles, so I bought myself a Pro Knit set, because with the cables, the needles aren’t as heavy once the project gets bigger.

Best regards, Inge

When it comes to knitting needles, I really like bamboo ones, and for crochet hooks, I prefer the ones with the thicker handle. I also had a truly ergonomic one once, with a curved handle, but I couldn’t get used to it. The thin metal ones work too, but not for very long—then my ganglion cyst starts to act up.

I like my birch wood knitting needles. I treated myself to a whole set years ago and haven’t regretted it to this day. 

I have various crochet hooks, with and without thicker handles. I find the ones with a slightly thicker handle somewhat easier to handle in some cases (with smaller hook sizes).

I have knitting and crochet hooks from KnitPro.

The very thin crochet hooks are from JMRA.
