Smyrna Latch Hook

These latch hooks are for the ancient Greek tradition of Smyrna knitting, with which you can make Smyrna rugs. The lockable latch hooks are perfect for this craft. When you pass the latch hook through the embroidery canvas, the latch automatically opens. This way the thread can be inserted and drawn through the embroidery canvas. The hook automatically closes when you work, to prevent slipping of the thread. The wooden handle ensures hours of comfortable knitting!
