So Pat is the new owner of the very first revolutionary bulb hook! Thanks for your confidence, Pat. I hope you'll like the shape.
As to me, its very comfortable and from the feedback, i think it will be a regular shape to be found among the Jimbo line.
Thanks guys for stopping by and bidding.
More to come!
Jimbo
Silky opens bidding with $15.00
Only to be outbid by Kari who bumps the bid to $25.00!
And here comes Pat who pumps the bid up to $26.50!
Kari Kounters (ok that's bad, I know), bumping the bid to $30.00!
Pat's back! Now it's $31.00!!
bytheway... this hook was mainly made so the bulb will fit the palm, like some of my palm held carving tools. But i had my sisterinlaw try it out (she's a pencil gripper) and it fit her grip ok too, but not as comfortable as it feels in the overhand palm grip.

This hook embodies some ideas I've been kicking around for a spell. It has a bulb shaped handle that nestles in the palm of the hand and the shank is just long enough to reach. Its a K, and oh you just have to feel it in your hand to believe the comfort. It's stubby... about 5" long, but hopefully will fit your hand and be REALLY comfortable.
I'll take bids on this hook till next Tuesday night. You can send your bid to my email address jimbocrochetwhittler@yahoo.com
Ooooo this is exciting. And YOU have the chance to own the very first. A hopefully historic event!! Well i hope so anyway
