yes🎉 this is the type of crochet content i want 🎉 i dont want a short thats a sped up project, i want all the details and tips only a seasoned crochet lady would know
Glad to know!
I also prefer tapered. I use Clover hooks and they're so smooth. I've tried Susan Bates but I can't get used to it. Also, that forest behind you is beautiful. I would love to sit there and craft. Thank you for the video and for sharing that beautiful landscape. 💜
Thank you! Yes, forests are lovely and relaxing, I filmed that bit on the yard of a forest cabin 😊
I really dislike Susan Bates hooks. I prefer prym inline and boye tapered
Thank you for this tutorial! I’ve been crocheting for a little while but still didn’t know why the two styles of crochet hooks existed.
And thanks for the analysis on how the two different shapes affects how the person crochets. That’s good to know.
Wonderful!
I had only ever seen tapered and I had super difficulty getting stitch tension consistent. Pretty much gave up on crochet. When I discovered inline hooks I gave one a try and holy cow what a difference. My stitches were amazing and consistent.the two swatches from the different hook types were worlds apart in quality.
Good you found what works with you!
I love the way u explained this❤
Thank you for this information! As a beginner, I didn't know there were different types of hooks, and have been using tapered this whole time 😅 I like it tho because, as you said, it's much smoother and faster to work with.
Glad it was helpful!
I prefer inline but now that I have discovered Clover Amour hooks those are my fav. They are a bit more of a mix between inline and tapered.
I love Clover Amour ones too, I would see them as tapered with the rounded shape.
Those hooks are tapered
They’re tapered but not as tapered as Boye. I never felt comfortable with Boye, but I love the Clover and Tulip hooks.
This is really good to know! I had no idea there was a difference. I've seen and used both styles. I didn't know there was a reason for making them differently. I'm going to have to pay more attention between the two styles now. Thank you for this information! 🙂
Great, thank you!
I like inline because my tension is tight and it just glides right through it…. But it shreds the yarn.
I like the tapered also.
Before your video I didn't know the the names of each but I can crochet better with the tapered. ❤️💗❤️💗😁 Thank you for all the knowledge.
Thank you, that's great! 😊
I need to come lay on the hammock and crochet.
I don’t have a preference but I do grip each type differently.
You’re doing a good job, wonderful video🎼❤
Hello, hope u are fine? Thanks for the information 👍👍👍God bless 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you too!
I like the tapered 🧶
I prefer tapered
Thank you for sharing I’ve found I like both kinds but for different things 😊
Yes, that works for some people like that too!
Very informative. I never really knew the difference before.
Thank you so much❤ could you please tell what size of hook is better for absolute beginner???
The mainnthing for everyone, beginner or not, is that a hook and yarn go perfectly together. Mostly the size suggested on a yarn label is fine.
But for a beginner I think it is best to avoid both too small and too large hooks. I would say 4 mm is best, or 5 mm.
Inline has helped me crochet faster tbh
I own and have used both for the 20+ years I've been crocheting, and inline helps me crochet faster. For me, the longer tip means less dropped stitches when working in a quick rhythm, and I notice no difference in hand movement or strain when using inline vs tapered. What I prefer most about the inline are the pointed heads for tighter stitches! I don't like a loose tension at all. It appears "sloppy" to me. You are correct! No right or wrong. 😊 Just personal preference.
Yes, everyone needs to find what works for them, and it depends a lot also on how you hold the hook and yarn.
0😊
I prefer tapered hook even though I am a beginner
Can you make a granny square hat?
Yes, hats can be made using granny squares in many different ways.
TEAM TAPERED FOR LIFE!!! (I use in line sometimes, but only in a pinch)
I love tapered ! I have tried inline. I don't like them, my stuff is loose, it doesn't sit right, or look good...I don't like them I don't like them I don't like them!
I like you though, I've been with you for years! Lol
Thank you! Great that you have found what works for you!
I love both!! Especially Inline hooks!
This was so interesting and helpful! Thank you so much!
Great to hear! 💚
you have the best videos! very informative and valuable information
Thank you so much! 😊
I used to swear by Susan Bates hooks, which are inline until I switched to the Tulip Etimo hooks. I’ve never looked back.
Most of my hooks are inline. Before I realized the difference, I had once grabbed a tapered hook and some yarn from a store when I was unexpectedly away from home overnight. I couldn't figure out why I kept dropping the yarn! 😂
Thank you for all you do!! I love to watch your tutorials! I learned so much from you!🧶🧶🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🧶🧶🧶🧶🇺🇸
Thank you so much! 💜
I'm fine with either inline or tapered. As long as the hook part is not too shallow and doesn't have "cheeks" that stick out. That's why I hate Boye hooks. The hook portion is so shallow it barely holds the yarn at all, and the sides have round outwards instead of smoothly tapering down. Susan Bates are my favorite metal hooks. I like Clover Amour, but feel they are too pricey and Pryms are comparable enough they are a better value.
I don't like the size N tapered hook, though. The only M size hook I ever found was an in line. I can do OK with that cause it's so big and fat and You use size 5 or 6 yarn or 3 or 4 smaller weight strands of Yarns. I've learned other ways to control my tension so that my stitches sit upright and one of the legs isn't too much longer than the other 1 and so on and so forth.
I also preferred tapered, I tried to use inline but it hurts my fingers and I’m not comfortable of using it.
Yes, that can be the problem, they are too sharp!
I think I have no preference. Maybe cause most of my hooks are somewhere in-between, so I'm kinda used to both.
Wow
Taperd for me.
I have only used tapered hooks , but I like them.
That's very interesting. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent explanations!
😊❤👍
They look same to me
They aren't 😊 They also feel quite different to work with.
I have a question, Is Clover Armour hooks only available in the US?
Im looking for an ergonomic crochet hooks, but the Amazon shipping cost to my country is above $30 😔 Im frm Mauritius.
No, Clover Amour hooks are Japanese and sold over much of the world. I don't know where it would be best to order them for you, Amazon India? Or France, I don't know, but check around with Amazon in various countries if there is no other online store that would send to you cheaper. But need to check customs too. I know I order only inside the EU now unless something isn't available in any EU country because of the customs.
So capable you are..madam❤
Interestingly, tapered hooks cause splitting for me, and the flared tip catches on stitches as I pull through.
I'm a crocheter with decades of experience and have won several fun speed challenges held by yarn shops
When I teach, I offer students both styles of hooks and encourage them to find their comfort range.
Yes, it varies for different people and also depends on how you crochet. I have a tight pen hold with very little movements. Did you see my video about 10+ different ways to crochet? And after that, I have learned from the comments a whole lot more even 😊 ruclips.net/video/mQOfQH4-nrM/видео.html
I didn't know there was a difference! I love Boye hooks, but don't like Susan Bates hooks.
Many brands have both, or also something in between! Those are the main two types.
I agree 🧶😎
Hi , what would you suggest for a beginner?
I would suggest a tapered hook. But it depends a bit on what position you have your hands.
I never knew there were two types. ❤
I want a tapered hook with the pointy head of the inline to get in tight spaces, any suggestions?
I don't think I have seen that. Maybe those who print hooks with a 3D printer make ones like that.
I started with tapered, experimented with in-line, found that I liked tapered more
Bruuuuh I needed a small one but I brought a big one helllppp
No problem, you will anyway need all different sizes little by little. Keep the big one and buy a smaller one too.
Im very new to crocheting like fresh new here and im just wondering if i have the right hook like my hook is sized 6.0mm and i use regular yarn and when i watch tutorials i always see them used much thinner hook than mine, im just wondering if im doing it wrong? Should i change to a thinner sized hook? What size should i get?
Each yarn needs a hook that goes with it. Mostly the band on a ball of yarn says what size is recommeded.Size 6 is for chunkier yarns. Size 4mm goes with many of the finer yarn but not thin ones.
@@TuulaMaaria ooooh thank you
Nearly all my hooks are tapered, but I actually much prefer inline. My stitches end up quite tight when I use tapered.
Which size yarn do i use for puffy/ fluffy yarn?
In most cases it is best going with what the yarn band suggests. There are so many thicknesses of fluffy yarns so the hook size can vary hugely from about 6 mm up to 12 mm at least.
tapered all the way
Thank you Miss
Wow
interest to learn
Thank you 😊
Please can you teach me how to do CH
Chain? Unfortunately I don't have vasic stitch tutorials but there are many on RUclips, hope you have found some. (Only saw this comment now)
Super helpful! Glad I found you 😩 ❤
I had no idea! Thank you for sharing!
I’m a relatively new subscriber and not very experienced. I do easy projects while dreaming of tackling more complex ones. Thank You for being such a good teacher! I didn’t know about differences in hooks. Thanks to this video, I bought a tapered hook today… I like it so much better!
Thank you, glad to hear the video is useful! Yes, tapered hooks seem to work better for so many people. Enjoy crocheting 😊
I agree ☝️
Hi dear
Hello 😊
What of metal hooks
Here I was only talking about the shapes of hooks, not materials. Metal hooks can be either tapered or inline. On this video I'm going more in detail into whattypes of hooks there are ruclips.net/video/AC2AySIATPo/видео.html
Are you swedish
No, Finnish!
I visited my neighbour to learn crochet from her. I loved it and started creating the chains. It's basic and I will visit her again after 2 days, after I get accustomed to today's pattern by practising.
Sounds great!
I encourage you to keep pursuing your crochet and improving your skills, and you will enjoy it for the rest of your life❣️
Once you have mastered crochet, don't forget to teach at least one person to crochet, to pass on this beautiful skill😉🤩
You said maon does that mean there are different types of hooks other than inline and tapered
Some are half way between.
Thank you!
never seen an inline hook🤔
Oh! There's lots of those around.
@@TuulaMaaria i tried googling it in russian and found literally nothing. i guess we dont make that distinction since we dont even have a word for it. i just examined all my hooks and all of them are tapered (i mainly have metal hooks, but my wooden and plastic ones are tapered as well). when i go to the store for yarn next time i will look at the hooks to see if they are all tapered as well, but to be honest i m pretty sure they will be because i became obsessed with this and started watching videos and scrolling websites and on the english side of the internet i met some inline hooks (not that much though) and on the russian side i saw zero.
