Change the working diameter while keeping the same handhold
Oasis separates the hook from the handle. Each aluminium head screws into the same shaped wooden handhold, giving the set a compact footprint and a consistent feel across the full size range. The smaller Starter selection is useful for many garments, accessories, amigurumi, motifs and detail-focused crochet projects.
Rose-gold-coloured metal creates a coordinated working surface across all seven diameters.
Hooks, handle, measuring and marking tools all have a place in the structured case.

The reusable handle accepts each of the seven Oasis Starter hook heads through a secure screw-fit connection.

- The supplied gripper helps secure and release the connection
- 1 rose-gold-coloured measuring tape

Measuring, cutting and marking essentials stay together with the hook system.
The structured black case provides dedicated spaces for the hook heads, handle and accessories, then closes into a compact travel-friendly format.
Not listed as inclusions: yarn, pattern, yarn needle, hook gauge, row counter, cable or extra handle.
Choose by millimetres: crochet-hook letters and numbers are not completely consistent between brands. Match the metric diameter to the pattern whenever possible.
Straightforward screw-fit setup
Select, attach, check and crochet
Choose the metric size, align the head with the handle's threaded fitting and tighten it securely by hand. Check the join before starting and pause to retighten if you ever feel movement during the project.
- One handle is shared by all seven hook heads
- The gripper gives extra purchase for tightening
- No cable, key or end cap is required
- The finished tool is a conventional single-ended hook
- Metric size should be confirmed against the pattern
Important product distinction
This is not a Tunisian crochet set
Interchangeable describes the removable hook heads. Oasis Starter does not include cables or create the long loop-holding tool used for Tunisian crochet.
Also worth knowing: Starter is KnitPro's name for this smaller size range. The set is useful for experienced crocheters as well as beginners.
Match the hook to the pattern, yarn and fabric you want
The 2.0 to 5.0mm range can cover fine detail work through to many common garment and accessory projects. Yarn labels are only a starting point: follow the pattern's metric recommendation and make a tension swatch before committing to the finished piece.
Garments and accessories
Work suitable tops, cardigans, scarves, hats, gloves and lightweight layers.
Amigurumi and toys
Choose a size that creates the firm fabric and neat stitches required by the pattern.
Motifs and detail work
Useful for suitable lace, borders, flowers, granny motifs and decorative elements.
Home and gift projects
Make selected coasters, dishcloths, cushions, small blankets and handmade gifts.
Hook size is not a yarn-weight guarantee: fibre, twist, ply and the crocheter's tension all change the fabric. Follow the pattern first and assess the swatch before adjusting size.
Who will enjoy the Oasis Starter format?
A particularly good choice if you...
- Want seven smaller crochet sizes in one compact case
- Prefer a shaped wooden handle over a bare aluminium shaft
- Like keeping the same handhold as hook sizes change

- Want Tunisian hooks, cables or double-ended hooks
- Regularly leave a hook with each active project
- Already know you prefer a very slim or extra-long handle

How to set up and care for the Oasis handle
Select by metric size
Begin with the pattern recommendation and choose the head marked with the required millimetre diameter.
Start the thread straight
Align the fitting carefully and turn without force. If it resists immediately, reverse and try again.
Tighten by hand
Use the supplied gripper for secure purchase. Do not use pliers or excessive force on the handle or fitting.
Store clean and dry
Remove yarn fibres from the connection, close the scissors and return every piece to its place in the case.
If the head loosens: pause, secure the working loop and retighten the fitting before continuing. Do not crochet with a visibly loose connection.

KnitPro Oasis Starter FAQs
Is 30981 the correct KnitPro article number?
Yes. Article 30981 identifies the Oasis Starter Interchangeable Crochet Hook Set. The product GTIN is 8907628072735.
Which hook sizes are included?
The set includes seven aluminium hook heads: 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5 and 5.0mm.
Why are only metric sizes listed?
US crochet-hook letters and numbers can vary between brands. Matching the millimetre diameter is the clearest way to choose the hook specified by a pattern.
How many handles are included?
One grey onyx coloured wooden handle is included. Each hook head attaches to that same handle, so one complete hook can be assembled at a time.
Is the handle made from onyx?
No. The handle is wooden. Grey onyx is KnitPro's colour name for its dark grey finish, not a claim that the handle contains gemstone.
How do the hook heads attach?
The selected head screws into the threaded fitting in the handle. Start the thread straight and tighten it securely by hand with help from the supplied gripper.
What is the gripper for?
The gripper provides extra purchase when securing or releasing the hook-head connection. Use it by hand without pliers or excessive force.
Is this a Tunisian crochet-hook set?
No. Oasis Starter forms a conventional single-ended crochet hook. It does not include a cable or create the extended loop-holding capacity required for Tunisian crochet.
Is the Starter set only for beginners?
No. Starter is the official name for the 2.0 to 5.0mm size range. The set can be used by new or experienced crocheters who need these diameters.
Is it suitable for left-handed crochet?
Yes. The assembled single-ended hook can be held in either hand. Handle comfort remains personal, so use a light, natural grip.
Which yarn weights can I use?
The range can be used across many fine-to-medium yarn projects, but there is no universal hook size for a yarn label. Follow the pattern's metric recommendation and make a tension swatch.
Can I use several hook sizes at once?
Only one wooden handle is included, so one complete hook can be assembled at a time. Change the head when the pattern calls for another size.
What accessories are included?
The set includes a measuring tape, embroidery scissors, 10 metal locking stitch markers and one gripper.
Does the set include yarn or a pattern?
No. Yarn and patterns are not listed as inclusions. Choose them separately and confirm the required hook diameter before starting.
What is the difference between Oasis Starter and Chunky?
Starter covers seven smaller sizes from 2.0 to 5.0mm and has a grey onyx coloured handle with a coal case. Chunky covers seven larger sizes from 5.5 to 10.0mm and has a rose handle with a clay case.
How should I store the set?
Keep the heads, handle and threaded fittings clean and dry. Close the scissors, return all pieces to their dedicated spaces and keep the case away from moisture and excessive heat.
What should I do if a hook head becomes loose?
Stop crocheting, secure the working loop and retighten the connection with the gripper. If the fitting does not engage normally, do not force it.
Give your crochet essentials an Oasis of their own
Oasis Starter 30981 combines the useful 2.0 to 5.0mm range with a consistent wooden grip, coordinated project tools and a coal case designed to keep every piece ready for the next stitch.
