Definitions

  • This invention relates to a crochet hook or the like.
  • An object of the invention is to provide a crochet hook having flattened side faces on its head.
  • a further object is to provide a crochet hook having a body portion tapering at its front toward a hook head and with the sides of the head and tapered portion flattened.
  • Figure 1 is a perspective view of a crochet hook embodying my invention
  • Fig. 2 a broken enlarged side view in elevation
  • Fig. 3 a top plan view
  • Fig. 4 a transverse sectional view, the section being taken as indicated at line 4-4 of Fig. 2.
  • cylindrical crochet hook body which, if desired, may be flattened in a horizontal plane at H. Forwardly of the flattened portion I I, the structure is provided with a tapering stitch-forming portion or throat l2 which merges into the head [3.
  • the head I3 is provided with a beak M which preferably extends rearwardly, as illustrated more clearly in Figs. 2 and 3.
  • I prefer to form the crochet hook structure at its forward end with flat side walls I5 and it.
  • the flattened side walls may extend across the entire outer portion of the head and preferably also extend rearwardly along the neck or throat portion 12 of the hook.
  • the top portion of the throat l2 may be flattened as indicated at H in Fig. 3.
  • the top portion 2 of the throat may be left rounded and the sides of the head and throat only flattened in the vertical plane.
  • the stitches are formed as in the usual practice, by the flattened sides which are found to give a much smoother and faster crocheting operation. Why the stitches move so readily and quickly along the crochet hook, I am unable to say with definiteness but it is a fact that the flattened side walls of the head and neck or throat of the structure enable the stitches to be moved in either direction with great speed and smoothness and the crocheting operation is greatly speeded up. It may be that the greatest point of frictional resistance in the crocheting operation has been along the sides of the head and throat and that by providing these surfaces with relatively wide flat areas that the stitches work against a much smaller area of resistance and slide much more easily over such surfaces.
  • a stitch is drawn onto the hook and the hook then passed through the material to engage in the thread.
  • the stitch-forming throat or portion I2 preforms the loop so that it may be readily slipped over the head and then the new stitch is drawn forwardly.
  • a minimum of frictional area engages the loop that is being formed so that it slides very readily over the head, etc.
