    Very informative video, thanks for the review. As a beginner I didn’t know crochet was so complicated…I thought yarn was just yarn until I made a scarf and it was so itchy🤣. I’m finally paying attention to fibers, count and hook sizes. As a beginner I really appreciate this video, I learned things I didn’t know. Thanks for sharing🤗

    I bought 2 of the tulip hooks, glad I didn’t waste $100+ on the whole set. Love my clover amours.

      I have both sets… the gray Tulips and the Amours. Love them both. I like that the surface texture of the hooks is different. The tulips are super smooth while the clovers are more of a brushed metal. They work great for different types of yarn and different types of stitches.

    Before I even watch I’m going to say the tulip hook is way way better. I bought the same generic hooks and compared them to my tulip just due to the price of the generic. I found that they weren’t slick and the hung in even my softest yarn. But they only cost a few dollars so now I know to avoid those generic ones. I messed up and bought a Furls odyssey and I love it so much more than I thought I would. I had gotten a furls streamline and I didn’t really care for it so I didn’t have high hopes for the odyssey. I was wrong as wrong can be. I plan to order one every time I have a little extra money until I have a full set 🫣. It may take 6 months or a year but that’s my goal. Sorry for writing a book here lol. Great review. Thank you!

      Tulip is way better!!! I can’t help myself from trying other hooks though!

      @@SpiffyHandmade I’m the same!! I have about 6 different brands of hooks. Maybe more if I truly counted. The clover amore use to be my go to before the Devil named Furls entered my life😂

      I could not get on with the tulip, I think it depends on how you hold your hook, I hold mine like a pen, so the tulip was all over the place. I gave them away and bought all Clover, which suit me very well!

      @@jeanettekruger9007 oh I agree about the way you hold the hook. I have the knife hold (I think that’s what it’s called). I’ve tried to do the pen grip but I feel like I have to make such big movements to make a stitch lol. I’m sure the style of hook makes a difference too.

    I have arthritis in my hands. I change hooks and try not to use the same one all the time. I love my tulips, I also use Susan Bates comfort grips and I have a set of Clovers. If my hands weren’t a problem I would use just the tulips mostly. Thank you for the review.

      Hi Sandy! I change it up when I am aching as well. I also switch to knitting sometimes, that seems to help. Thank you for watching and commenting, I appreciate it!

    I have tried quite a few hooks before I found Susan Bates and now I can't use anything else. I had problems with catching stitches. Thank you for your review. 😃

    I use Susan Bates for wearables as it’s easier to get uniform size stitches. I use the Tulip Etimo for amigurumi mostly because it’s easier to make smaller stitches. I also have very small hands so using the Etimo is very comfortable for me 😊

      Same for me, I just wish it had a larger handle sometimes. Thanks for watching and commenting💝

    Appreciate your analysis. I try not to buy stuff from China. People create great products like Tulip and then the Chinese steal the look and idea, create cheap knock-offs, and Amazon promote those people. I don't like that.

    So my question is: Hand fatigue. Do these hooks give you hand fatigue? I need a good set of Aluminum hooks and the Clovers are enticing but the small handles vex my hands. Thank you for the review, I have seen these and wanted to see if they are good 🥰🧶🙏🏽 I am a Furls / Susan Bates girl. I learned on Susan Bates when I was 6. I can use a Boye hook but I slip out of stitches.
