This is a great set for someone who has arthritis. The ergonomic hooks have a wider range of sizes. Very comfortable to use. Regular metal hooks were leaving my hands cramped and sore, and I had immediate improvement with these hooks. Hook size is noted on handles, which makes it easy to find what I want. The case is durable and attractive. The little extras are a great convenience (can you ever have too many stitch markers???). All in all great quality and a fantastic value for the price. Highly recommended!
