Description

I'm slowly working through the Banksia Pod series and giving them a bit more color. Red was the first. Colors were chosen using the split complementary triangle on a color wheel.


This beautiful hand turned crochet hook is made from the Australian Banksia Pod cast in Red, Green and Blue Amuilite with your choice of ends and rings. The hook is shaped with a larger handle to relieve stress on the hand and wrist when crocheting. The crochet hook has an Ergonomic shape that fits nicely in the hand.


Please see Hook Info for Crochet Hook dimensions. Nelsonwood Hook Info


Because this hook is handcrafted there will be variation in appearance, grain, size and color. While there are slight variation the basic Ergonomic shape is maintained. No two handcrafted hooks will be the same!

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.

ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!! I love these hooks and truly enjoy using them. I’ve been crocheting 62 years. My mother taught me to crochet so I would sit still under her quilt frame and I’ve been making things since. These hooks really help in easing the grip of hook and I can work longer if I choose. Plus, they are a treat for myself, making my projects an even greater gift of my love to others!! Thank you for making these beautiful hooks!!! Becki🧶
