This is the kind of hook which was used to hang meat in the olden days, according to Mr. Lee. The upper part of the hook is a can to be filled with oil to prevent ants from reaching the tip of the hook where the meat was hung.

- a prize every time! It took our grandson longer to choose a prize (anything on the stall) than it did to hook his duck!

Bound manuscript of music by James Hook.
Page of music, from a volume of pieces by the organist and composer James Hook (1746-1827); the final item, "I know a thing or two", is probably in Hook's own handwriting.

This hook is over 12" long was marked as 8.5mm in size. In actuality, it's probably closer to 8.25mm in it's original dowel state. I've now hand sanded from the head to about 6.5" down the shaft to about 8mm in consistent size. This has to be done carefully, as consistent sanding around the circumference is needed to maintain size and good shaping for actual use.
Here you can also see the shaping I did for the lip of this hook. The lip is left longer, but I've tapered the lip a bit (the almond shaping to the lip that you can see) to allow for more movement for larger yarns. Lips can be altered to a degree without much fear of altering the end stitch size since it's the throat work space that actually dictates the end size of a stitch. The lip's job is to catch and hold yarn while in the process of creating a stitch, and then finally release that yarn - nothing more.

Hand carved crochet hook hair sticks. I just finished them today. They look nice, but aren't actually strong enough to crochet with. The large one is made from a chopstick of some sort of composite wood substance. The small one is a converted bamboo knitting needle. Amazing how the quality of both wood and design is so important for a crochet hook, and less so for a knitting needle (or chopsticks) - a case of sheer physics alone. I have completely ripped the lip off a crochet hook before, just because the bowl was not strong enough.
The converted knitting needle was an attempt at making a size G-6 crochet hook from an already sized knitting needle, saving me some sizing work. But, this kind of bamboo is not strong enough. I've worked with other bamboo that is stronger. I don't know enough about bamboo to know why this one is weaker than the others I've worked with. :\

This solid brass coat hook comes from an "old federal building", according to the label on the back.
Being in Chicago, this likely means it originally hung somewhere in Henry Ives Cobb's Chicago Federal Building, demolished in 1965. I imagine dozens of them, lining the hallway of the judges' chambers... or in a cloak room off the lobby. Who knows.
I love the worn patina, the little voids and spots where the molten metal didn't quite fill, and the overall size and heft; it juts out 4" from the base, and stands nearly 5.5" tall. Feels like it's around a pound.
I hope to one day reproduce these in brass - maybe also a darkened bronze. It'd make a killer bathrobe hook, and I could even imagine a row of them, lined up on an exposed brick wall in a garage or barn.
It's a simple, utilitarian design that neither Melissa nor I have seen before. That's saying something, as we've looked at a lot of old hardware. At $25, we just couldn't pass up.
Found over the weekend locally on Craigslist.
For DefenderMarc. I am so sorry these are so delayed. I hope these are what you are looking for.
