I do not recommend the hook set at based on the set I purchased from a local Wal-Mart store. I took them back to the store for a refund because I could not get any of the hook heads into/attached to the handle no matter what I tried/did. I think it was due to the (poor) workmanship of the actual set I had. I know other people have complained about the same problem I had and others have not had a problem:

I’d like to see how someone would actually hold these hooks in their hands. Are they more suited for “pen” holders or “knife” holders? They look very bulky, are they heavy? What are the handles made of? Do the hooks screw into the handles, twist into them or click into them? Are they available for thread or yarn alone?

Sorry, that’s a lot of questions!
