Recommend me a crochet hook

I've lost my 3mm crochet hook and desperate to start a new project that requires one. I like the clover amour hooks normally, but I don't seem to be able to get one in the right size quickly. Any brand recommendations for similar style hooks, i.e. round rubber handles. I have a cheapo set but they're not nearly so nice to use.

I really like Pony ones, they are widely available.

Wolfiefan · 06/06/2020 15:43

I like the clover ones.

PorpentiaScamander · 06/06/2020 15:43

I've got a couple of sirdar ones that are nice to use. But I've never used clover amour(only cheap versions of) so cant compare.

Sorry just read the post properly. Blush

Widely available in lockdown? If i'm buying online i normally use wool warehouse but they have delays on their orders right now and too impatient to wait!

Have you looked on amazon OP?
They have some with next day delivery

OneJump · 06/06/2020 16:32

I have got clover amour from amazon or ebay with fast delivery before. I don't use anything else, I've tried nearly all makes and they suit me the best.

WaffleCash · 06/06/2020 16:37

It seems to be the size in particular that's in short supply, I can't see any available on Amazon without a long delivery time

I love the knitpro ones with the silicone covers.

WaffleCash · 06/06/2020 17:02

Deramores have delays on orders too, I'll checkout Lovecraft

I love a knit pro waves different colour handles for different sizes.

3mm Clover, Prym and Armour all on Amazon.

WaffleCash · 06/06/2020 17:11

3mm Clover, Prym and Armour all on Amazon.

None are showing delivery for me until the 15th June...

Thanks all anyway, just wanted to be sure i'd exhausted all options before ordering something that's going to take a while to arrive

I've ordered from both Deramores and Wool Warehouse over the last 3-4 weeks, and they've both dispatched within two days. Maybe that was just lucky, but I didn't notice any difference from normal.

ArtieFufkinPolymerRecords · 06/06/2020 17:55

Do you have Amazon Prime, because Clover soft touch or Prym are showing Monday delivery for me.

ExpletiveDelighted · 06/06/2020 18:21

*I really like Pony ones, they are widely available.

Widely available in lockdown?*

I don't know about in lockdown as I haven't needed any but generally they are. Hope you find something.

MaidenMotherCrone · 06/06/2020 19:00

Another with prime so showing earlier delivery for me too.

WaffleCash · 06/06/2020 19:26

I do have prime, but I don't see a Prym one, clover soft touch are the flat ones and I can't use them.

I think i'm sorted though, localish yarn shop is doing doorstop collection from next week so can order and pick one up on Monday/Tuesday

Prym
