Tutorial #1 - Crochet Hooks

So, I really wasn't sure where to start this but here it goes. Crochet Hooks. I guess that's a good place to start right? At the beginning. There are many different kinds of crochet hooks; metal, plastic, wood, and bone. Personally I have used metal and plastic and of those I prefer the metal as the yarn slides better on it whereas with the plastic hooks it tends to stick more.

I have some pictures I found but they are kind of small...sorry.

Bone

And for those who prefer a little style in their crochet there are hooks like this...

Well this isn't just a post to show what the different hooks look like.
Hooks come in many sizes which differ depending on where you are in the world. The different sizes are meant to accommodate different thicknesses of yarn. Bigger hooks=thicker yarn. Smaller hooks=thinner yarn. Very difficult eh? There are metric sizes which are number, US Sizes which are letters and number, and UK/Canada sizes which are also all numbers. Here is a conversion chart. I know it's not centered but I'm not so computer savvy. :) If there is anything else you want to know let me know.

Oi! I almost forgot! I am having troubles thinking of a name for this little venture...I was thinking that it should be something spunky and fun. If you have any ideas let me know maybe we'll do a little poll to see what everyone thinks.
Thanks for reading!
