The addi Swing is a crochet hook with a curved, ergonomic handle that fits into the palm. The handle is shaped so the hand rests in a natural position, aiming to keep the wrist straighter while you work, with addi's smooth head for an easy glide.
Sizes run across the everyday range, from C (3.00mm) through F, G, H, I and up to K (7.00mm), so you can buy the one you use most or build a set.
These hooks suit crocheters who work for long stretches or have found that thin, pencil-style hooks leave their hand cramping. Each size is sold individually.
Good for
- Crocheters with hand or wrist strain
- Long sessions on blankets and amigurumi
- Knife-grip crocheters who want a palm rest
- Worsted and DK projects in the G to I range
Using it
The handle is designed with a particular hold in mind, so give it a few rows to settle in. It can feel unfamiliar at first if you're used to a slim hook. Check your gauge when switching hooks, since a new handle shape can change your tension. If you're unsure which size you need for a yarn, our crochet hook guide and the yarn weight calculator can help you match them.
Looking after it
Wipe the hook clean, and store it so the head isn't knocked against other metal tools.
