per item

This beautiful hand turned crochet hook is made from Australian Banksia Pod cast in Turquoise and White Amuilite with your choice of exotic wood ends. It's shaped with a larger handle to relieve stress on the hand and wrist when crocheting. The hook has an Ergonomic shape that fits nicely in the hand.


The crochet hook measures 6 1/2" to 8" long depending on the size of the hook and is 3/4" to 1" in diameter at its widest.


General guidelines are sizes


Sizes M (9mm) and smaller are 6 1/2" to 7 1/4" long.


Sizes N (10mm) and larger are 7 1/4" to 8" long.


Hooks with multiple woods tend to be to the longer side of these measurements. The reason for the variation is that each hooks is hand turned and while the standard shape, which gives the ergonomic advantage, is maintained, each hook is uniquely it's own.


Because this hook is handcrafted there will be variation in appearance, grain and color. No two Hooks will be the same! Pictures are examples of what you will receive.

Banksia pods originate from Australia. The pods are commonly compared to pine cones, but Banksia trees are not conifers and aren’t related to pine trees The seed pod itself is actually the fruit of the tree.
Banksia pods range in size from 4″ to over 12″ long, with a diameter ranging from 2.5″ to 5″ wide. Just under the exterior of the pod, there is an area of reddish brown fuzz material. Further toward the center is the denser, wood-like core. The seed cavities can reach well over halfway into the pod, giving turned projects a very unique appearance and texture.
