Bryan is an outstanding woodworking artist. He is terrific and very prompt with communications and shipping of items ordered. I have ordered a total of eight crochets (so far) with each made of a different exotic wood that Bryan works with. The wood grains and colors are phenomenal and such a pleasure to look at. When working with these beauties, the yarn glides through beautifully making perfect stitches. Handling these well made ergonomic crochets has significantly lessen my arthritic hand pain and provides me with longer periods of doing my hobby that I dearly enjoy. Bryan's artistic skills in making these wonderful crochets supersedes any other crochet hook that I have ever owned. Thank you, Bryan. With sincere appreciation of you gifted talent.

I love EVERYTHING about this hook and the three others I ordered! I agree with the other reviewers who described how comfortable it is to work with Bryan's hand-turned crochet hooks. I used to crochet so tightly I would often have to add a couple of sizes to the hook designated in a pattern (example: pattern calls for a G hook; I would have to use an I hook). Thanks to Bryan's incredible hooks, I can now use the hook size listed in a pattern. This is a miracle in my book! I also totally agree with the reviewer who said Bryan's hooks make working with yarn subject to splitting a lot easier. These hooks are true masterpieces! There are not enough positive adjectives in the English language to describe these wonderful hooks. Bryan also responds to e-mail questions very quickly and ships items out just as fast. Thank You!

First of all, speed! I ordered 4 hooks (Kingwood, Bocote, Pink Ivory and Black and White Ebony) and they were at my door 6 days later. 6 DAYS! The week before Christmas! And they are beautiful! I have several other turned wood hooks from a much more expensive site and I'd say these are just as good, if not better, for nearly half the $$ and so much faster. There's also the added bonus of knowing that the guy who answers your questions is the guy who's making your hooks. Bryan was great to work with and is obviously very skilled in his craft. It's so much fun to make things out of yarn with a piece of art instead of a hunk of aluminum!

Thank you for my newest beautiful wooden crochet hook! Your hooks are both lovely to look at and a joy to work with...it feels so good in my hand! I've compared your hooks to the other popular maker of similar hooks, and I prefer yours...they just fit my hand better. Thank you also for the very prompt shipping, I didn't have to wait very long to enjoy my new hook!
Nicole Hazzard
After receiving two of these hooks as a gift, I will be replacing all my little metal ones with these beautiful hooks! The pink ivory, specifically, is such a substantial wood and absolutely beautiful in color. I couldn't be happier, and can't wait to order others!
Jessica Everett
LOVE my new crochet hook! Truly stunning and a joy to use. Wanted to try it out before leaving a review. Problem was I couldn't stop crocheting long enough yesterday to write it. I'm certainly coming back to order more. Excellent communication from seller as well as shipment. Thank you.
Joanneac Wilson
This is my second Nelsonwood hook. I adore these hooks, they fit perfectly in my hands and are so comfortable. I have been crocheting for a long time and have tried every hook out there, these hooks are some of the best! I will definitely continue to add to my collection.
Robin Erdman
Absolutely wonderful! my four hooks not only look beautiful but are a joy to work with, being incredibly light & smooth gliding through even the most splitty yarn without a snag. I can't wait to order more!
Naomh Harbinson
I cannot express in words how beautiful this hook is! I am a long time crocheter and this hook fits beautifully in your hand and is incredibly light. Thank you so much! Your workmanship is outstanding!
Donna Roach
I've had my hook for an hour now. I wanted to test it out before leaving a review. I LOVE MY NEW HOOK!! The craftsmanship is superb! The attention to detail is awesome! I especially love the fact that the hook size is strategically placed on the throat of the hook!! Not only is it beautiful, I've played around with 4 different types of yarn&the hook worked well with them all! I'm a pencil/pen grip crocheter&crocheting with this hook was not awkward at all,it felt very comfortable. I also tried using the knife grip&it felt just as comfortable! The hook is lightweight, my stitches are even&it relieved the pain/stress on my hand/wrist! I also rubbed my hook onto wax paper to help it glide through the yarn better! It was well packaged&arrived VERY fast! Will purchase from this store again VERY SOON! Lol! Thank you Nelsonwood!!!
Ms Toot
Amazingly beautiful craftsmanship! Fast shipping! Perfect for crocheting..my favorite hook by far. I have tried grips, foam attachments before and nothing stopped the aching....this hook causes no pain or discomfort and I can crochet for hours!!! LOVE IT!!! THANK YOU FOR AN AMAZING PRODUCT! Now I can crochet without pain!!
Can't wait to order another one...just need to decide which size next :)
Gina McLean
Super fast shipping as before. This is my second wooden crochet hook. It's hard to describe how wonderful these hooks really are-so comfortable in the hand, glide through the yarn, no splits in the yarn, and I could crochet comfortably for hours if I had the time! I started a baby afghan with this hook, and it has been a great joy to see the beauty of this hook and to experience the ease of use with my injured thumb. I look forward to eventually purchasing a hook in every size that is available-thanks for creating such wonderful crochet hooks!
Margaret O'Meara
Love this beautiful hand made hook! I love it as much as my other two Nelsonwood hooks. Check out my other reviews. This hook is just as awesome.

Another hit from Nelsonwood! This hook is perfection. It glides through the fuzziest of fibers like a hot knife through butter. The head is perfectly in line with the shaft, making my stitches sweetly even. I find myself selecting projects that will allow me to use any one of my three Nelsonwood hooks. I highly recommend these over any other I use.
Kelley Macek
What beautiful craftsmanship in the 4 crochet hoods. hooks are nice and smooth. the grains and style of the handles are lovely. these will be used to create w/ my yarns and help with hand fatigue...Thanks again for such beautiful hooks.......
Betty Cowell
Beautiful! It glides smoothly through the yarn! I'm never going back to metal or plastic hooks again! Excellent customer service! Highly recommended!
Amy Kittel
Very fast shipping. The wood used for this crochet hook is so beautiful and the hook is so comfortable to use. This is the 3rd hook that I have purchased.
Joan Skoviak
As with my other hook from Bryan, this is a stunner. Beautiful to look at and lovely to use. He ships quickly too.
Deborah Morse
This crochet is absolutely awesome, and exactly what I was looking for!
Cathen Kayak
A beautiful hook at a great price! Swift service. I love the feel of the hook in my hand.
Robin Erdman
Excellent. Absolutely beautiful, a work of art. I am so very happy I got it. Bryan is very sweet and listened to my request. My hands are very - very- grateful to him.
Catalina Arabia
Beautiful hook and fast shipping! Thank you so much. The hook is a joy to work with and look at.
Nicole Hazzard
Superb workmanship and artistry. The turning is excellent and creating the hook, also hard for me to keep the right size, is masterfully done. A great finish and buy these because they are art that fulfills a function.
