[edit]Adaptive Crochet Hooks
Article body
[edit]Adaptive crochet hooks are specialized crochet hooks intended to assist individuals with physical disabilities. Most adaptive hooks are designed with an ergonomic handle that provide a comfortable grip and reduces strain on the individual's fingers, wrists, and hands. Mainly for the benefit of those suffering from arthritis or carpal tunnel syndrome, ergonomic hooks can reduce hand and wrists pains caused from the repetitive motions used in all crochet stitches, for all crocheters regardless of ability.
In addition to ergonomic handles, adaptive hooks may involve other features including enlarged hooks or longer handles, to provide better control and ease of use for individual with limited mobility or dexterity. The increase of accessibility to different styles of hooks has made it possible to sustain a longevity for an individual's ability to crochet.
