Is Chiaogoo vegan?
Yes, the bamboo crochet hooks are PETA Approved vegan; metal and other bamboo ranges are typically vegan but not all certified.
Vegan means no animal-derived ingredients — beeswax, lanolin, carmine, collagen, silk or milk proteins — anywhere in the formula. It is a separate claim from cruelty-free, and a brand can be one without the other.
