I'm relatively new to crocheting, so I'm more or less still in the process of getting all the right gear and I plan to make another upgrade. I've seen and heard people mentioning wooden hooks with a deeper groove wwhich apparently helps hold the yarn better. Is this true and if so, where can I find a good set?
 
Yeah, wooden hooks with deeper grooves do help grip yarn smoother and reduce slipping, you can find quality sets on Etsy, Amazon, or specialty craft stores like Michaels or Joann's
 
Hooks made of wood with pronounced grooves can make it easier to control your yarn and keep your tension even. Brands like ChiaoGoo, Clover, and Furls have some really nice wooden hook sets that are comfy to hold and keep your yarn from slipping too much.
