1. I believe that is the largest on the market right now. You can make your own hooks with dowels and carve them with a crafts knife.
2. S online store
3. When the event known as "Stitches East" was still held in Atlantic City, NJ, I stumbled upon some of the largest crochet hooks available for retail and purchased a few! The brand name is "Jenkins" and they go up to a size "U" in the American sizing system. You can see them here: http://www.jenkinswoodworking.com/Jenkins%20Crochet%20Hooks.htm But these are not the largest crochet hooks I've ever seen. A custom crochet hook, mammoth in size, was created to hold a freeform display honoring the late Sylvia Cosh. You can see it here: http://www.crochet.nu/scrumblersgallery/longroom/hangings/hanging_fset.html Another mammoth crochet hook was created by (I believe) Nancy Nehring for the CGOA Conference held in Chicago in 2003. The hook was part of a display that showed the components that make up the crochet hook. You can see an image of the components on the homepage of the CGOA Hook Collectors Group (Note: you must be a CGOA member in order to join the Hook Collectors Group).
