Bucilla crochet hooks?

by Noreen on January 24th, 2008

Just got a comment posted from a guy who’s broken his wife’s fave crochet hook….

ooooooooooh that’s baaaaaaaaaaaaad!

I hauled out as many of my steel hooks as I could quickly lay my hands on….

And couldn’t find a single ‘Bucilla #3′ among them.

That’s the hook he broke…. (what were you doing? enquiring minds want to know!)
I googled on Bucilla crochet hooks and didn’t get much happiness.

He’s offering a $10 reward, which I think is a touch light…

Can anybody help him out?

Of course, there’s always eBay…..

    I was sure I had one, but all I have are Boye. Is he sure it was Bucilla?

    No Bucilla, but lots of Boye & Bates. I’ve never broken one, but I’ve bent one of my smaller hooks. I don’t remember what I was doing with it, but I think I tried to use it as a screw driver.

    I looked through all of mine, and there are a bunch of Boye, Susan Bates, tons of Milwards, Roma, Flora,Morral’s, JMRA’S, some with names worn off, and some that look to be cheap and cheerful new no-names.

    No Bucilla…… now I am intrigued… I will be looking for Bucilla hooks from now on!

    Hi Carolee
    I told my husband about the posting about the broken crochet hook, and he shuddered, and asked:
    WHAT was he doing? Trying to open a paint can with it?

    We are SERIOUS tool afficianados in this house and mis-using or abusing a tool, ANY tool, including and ESPECIALLY a treasured crochet hook, is cause for serious chastizement!

    Hi Terri
    Thank you so much for looking-
    I am intrigued now, and am going to keep my eyes open!
    But, will I be willing to part with a Bucilla hook if I find it?
    Probably not! LOL! Um, in fact… not a chance! LOL
