Crochet Hook 4.5 mm (7)

The 4.5 mm crochet hook – otherwise known as a size #7 hook – is used for lighter yarns, such as #2 Fine/Sport/Baby and #3 Light/DK/Worsted. This hook is great for any crochet project where you want a crochet project that is tight with little give or holes. Dishcloths, beanies, and sweaters all work up great with the 4.5 mm / 7 crochet hook.
