Hello Casper,

I did two articles on the subject in the February 2007 issue of More
Woodturning. The first article delt with duplicating a broken crochet
hook for a lady and the second article was the process of creating a
full set for my wife. In that article, I included shaft dimensions for
the different sizes. You do have to carve the hook with a knife or
other instrument after it has been turned. You can order a copy of the
issue from More Woodturning, PO Box 2168, Snohomish, Washington 98291
USA for $5.00. You can get a printed copy or an electronic copy (if
you have high speed e-mail connection). The electronic copy will get
to you quicker than the mailed copy.

Thanks Fred! That will help greatly! Do you only accept check? Or also
online payment for one issue? I've got highspeed. My day job as
computer enginner makes it pretty necessary. I did see the "sample"
issue option and assumed that was where you were leading. Yes?

Currently I'm working on nostepinnes but am anxious to make hooks too.
Any advice or articles on those? They seem fairly simple, but I like
keeping references at hand when they are available.

Again, thanks very much!
`Casper

Thanks Nova. I have found a couple of sites that list the millimeter
sizing, but most weren't complete. I hope to make an entire set for
myself and a few other family members and friends. I was also curious
if there was a pre-existing gauge tool that could be used to directly
size the hooks, but no biggie. I can work the old manual way.
