BEGINNER Double Ended Crochet Hook
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 фев 2025
- Mikey will show you how to use a Double Ended Crochet Hook to do Cro-Hooking or Cro-Knitting. It's a really easy concept. The tricky part is actually finding a double ended crochet hook. The advantage is that it will cause your work to look dominantly one colour on one side of your project and the other side will be dominantly a different colour. It works out pretty nicely. Use this concept for dish clothes, runners and even afghans. Enjoy #crochet #learntocrochet #crochettutorial .

Mikey you are truly my hero. whenever I see any new crochet stitches I am excited because since I found you those stitches are just not intimidating anymore, because I know that all I have to do is go to mikey and no matter what the stitch there will be instructions with the best tutorials ever and I can not thank you enough Mikey you are like I said earlier my hero.
That is so true.
Oh my, I love this! Never even heard of it before!
I have to find a Cro-Hook, because I know what I'm going to be doing on my 22 hr car trip! I love this!!!!
Hobby Lobby have double ended crochet hooks.
you are good n what you teach. and you are not afraid to admit when you made a mistake. Your laughter cracks me up and I have to laugh along with you. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for demonstrating how to cro-knit. I didn't understand it when I read the instructions until I saw you demonstrate it on RUclips. It is the same technique as Tunisian crotchet, but working with 2 yarns.
Thank you so much! I was gifted both types of needles several years ago and the lady who gave them to me passed away. I have been trying to find out how to use these for a long time, so thank you for making a very easy to understand video!
Such an awesome technique- I always thought the baby blankets done in this technique were so beautiful ♡♡♡
Wow! Wow!!! I cannot believe i have been dealing with the ends that come so loose and hating them crochet along the sides why have i never thought of this!
I know this is an older video, but I just bought a double crochet afghan hook from hobby lobby for 4.15 on sale. Thank you for this tutorial it's been a great help in understanding on how to use my new hook
Love it. I chose black and red. Seeing the contrasting colours mesh is soooo satisfying
I bet it does.
I have been looking at a inherited double ended crochet hook and a cro-hooking book for the past 10 years and still have yet to figure it out.
Thank you so much now I totally understand why it looks so neat and why my grandma had it.
Thank you! You are a brilliant teacher
Thank god for Mikey! I treated myself to a double-ended hook for Boxing Day and want to make something cool and unique...
Best of luck!
This is super cool! I would love more tutorials on projects with this type of crochet. :)
Oh My Goodness... lol, that's so funny, I was searching on RUclips for how to use the double hooked crochet hooks and saw some, then I look on the RUclips Home spot, and I see your video on that, I didn't know you knew how to do that... but glad that you do, I love all your videos on how to crochet projects, and this one you made look so easy!! Thank You Mikey for this one!! I'll try this and I'll be looking for those double hooks at Michael's store, I believe I saw someone's comment on that on another video! 👍😃
Mike you are the best instructor I've watched. You made it so easy to understand. Thank you so MUCH! Donna
I love your manner. I forgot how to do this and needed a refresher. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
now I want to go get some double ended crochet hooks! Maybe tomorrow I'll run to shopko so I can try this!!
Thank you for sharing your video. I love seeing you teach on videos. You’re awesome. 👍❤️🌹
I had one of these in a kit that didn’t even involve crochet and I never knew what to do with it. So, thank you for explaining what to use it for and the difference. Thx!
a week or so ago I found a double ended hook at walmart and I was sooo excited!! I'm currently working on a scarf! :D
Thank you Mikey for this tutorial. I like how you always give such easy to follow instructions. Thank you for helping me to remember how to work this double end crochet hook pattern
I am enjoying doing this technique.
So going to try this, wonderful. I have the same problem with cat hairs Mikey...also because I have long hair i often find I've crochet my hair in there as well!
I’m trying to make a hat using a double pointed Tunisian hook and got bogged down. I saw this tutorial and knew I would get the best learning experience. You mentioned a washcloth and because I am also making washcloths, I grabbed some cotton yarn. Now I can accomplish two learning/project at the same time. Phew.
I had no issues following along with 2 variegated yarns... in fact, it was quite unique to see that!! Great tutorial, and thank you! (I have cat hair issues at times, too...)
ohhhhhhh good never had much luck with this now i can watch you with yr magic fingers Diane
Thank you what a wonderful instructor
I learned this at a Fair when I was 16, took me 10 minutes of watching the lady...even entered my second blanket in the fair exhibition hall the following Summer and got 3rd place...:)
Interesting technique. May have to give it a try.
I am going to practice with this needle. I am willing to knit in this way of doing it, but I cant do it with two needles. This is a good way . Thanks for your job.
Loved it very easy to follow
As someone new to all this thank you this was Nice and clear thank you!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this-!!! Can't wait to try!!
Thank you, I have done this years ago but forgot how, so thank you for posting this video.
Nice job🐾 Now, I will make purse using this technique. Thank you for your clear instructions. 🍀Happy crocheting💝
Haha I don't have one of this hooks (yet) and I try to make one by taping two of the same size together. No, it did not work. haha But I was able to work along with both of the hooks. Took a little more time to slide my project from one hook to another. haha I am crazy, but really wanted to try this. Now I can get my self a real cro hook. Thanks Mikey for all you do. Is funny how I decided I wanted to research different ways to crochet and there you are making videos of it. It's a great feeling to search for something and your videos are the first to come up. :D
Great video!! I had lost my instructions to the double ended crochet. I figure let me see if its on you tube. What better way to learn is from my favorite guy!!!! Thanks to you I can start doing this again!!!
Thank you for this tutorial. I found a double ended hook at the thrift store and had no idea how to use it. The only trouble I am having is the variegated yarn. It's a little confusing. If you could maybe remake this with 2 solid colors. 🙂💚 I love your channel and search it often when I need help or inspiration.
thank you so much this made allot more sense on how to use one
Glad it helped!
Very good video Mikey. This looks quite easy to do. FYI the plastic piece on the circular needles is called a cable or a cord.
Fabulous,wonderful, I love it this is something that I can really use right away I never knew what the double ended crochet hooks were for or how they worked but I have a project already for it thank you so much I wish I could put a bookmark on the special tutorials👍👍👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👋🧶
You have the power through your account on RUclips to make Playlists. You add the video to a playlist so you can keep track of it. We have 350 playlists of mixed content that is grouped together. You can do the same.
Very beautiful and lovely pattern, I love it
Hi I was working on two colors and this so easy ty so much.
THANKS for this tutorial!! I now feel as though I can give this a shot.
As far as the cat fur … I have so much fur floating around here I’m tempted to spin it into yarn!!! Haaaaaa Haaaaaa!! 😻
very cool! thanks for sharing.
Thank you Mikey !!
2 headbands with the labor of one? I love this!!!
Thanks so much for the tutorial! I can't wait to try this! You make it look so easy! I am loving it! Lol
I really like your videos
I have a Susan Bate double-ended crochet hook in a size Q (because that was the only kind of Q hook my local Shopko carried), and I had wondered what the purpose of hooks at both ends was. (I'd heard of Tunisian crochet -- but those hooks are typically long single-ended hooks, not double-ended.) Now I've learned about "cro-hooking" through this video. I might still use the double-ended Susan Bates Q hook as a "normal" crochet hook (needed an alternative to my plastic Boye Q hook) -- but now there's a new technique I can try sometime, which should work up very quickly indeed with a Q hook!
Very interesting! so good!
lovely Thanks Mikey!
Thanks. I just found. Going do this one It look fun
Gracias son maravillosos los vídeos!
I bet this would look really awesome with any of the cake yarns! :)
Still the best!
Hi Mikey , first I want to thank you for your tutorials they are great and I have learned a lot from them.
Second I was wondering if we can do the hound tooth stitch with this technique.
Can you show us a video for that. Thank you
Also works great as pot holders
I wish I knew where to find some of those flexible double ended cro-hooks! All I can really find are the straight hooks lol!
Nice job Mikey... I have only one thing to say about your work... I think for someone who has never done this before, I think you should have used solid colours for the video cause it's confusing.
I agree, even though I have been crocheting for a long time. How do we contact Mikey to request that he do another cro-hook video with two different solid colors, easy for us to see? How do we get him to provide a written pattern for the stitch? I love his instructions and send all beginners to him.
I send everyone to watch his tutorials to he’s brilliant 😸😸😸
too many colors does muddy the water so to speak. And it's yarn, not string.
I am having trouble telling the difference between the yarn strands because of the variegated yarn. I had to give up trying to keep things straight. Yes please do one with just two solid colors.
thank you so much
I just found your video , thank you so much for sharing, how many stitches would I need to make a afghan please.
I'm new at this, thank you again for sharing,
From, Brenda
Looks like I have more hooks to buy 😆
Always wonder how those hooks were used, thanks for the video, and I'm off to get a set.
Question: Some videos have you picking up the two parts of loop on the last st in row, I guess to make border sturdier(?), but you only pick up front vertical part - is this specific to these double-ended hooks?
Do I have to pick up the back stitches can I pick up the usual stitches or will it throw off the rows?
Where did you get the circular hooks? I didn't know anyone was making them any more. Thanks for the video. I'm learning to do this.
thank you !!
Hi Mikey, do you have any other Double Ended Crochet Hook videos? This one is marked as beginner and I have really enjoyed this technique! Thank you, Debbie
I don't unfortunately.
Thank you for the reply.
would I be able to get these needles at places like JoAnn Fabrics or more like a specific yarn store? I want to try this as well.
What are these colors of this yarn? So pretty!!
The book has you going between the verticles which gave a heavy ribbed look like knitting. Confusing which is the correct look
Can you make other things? Other than runners, afghans and dish clothes. Can it be used to make hooded scarves or hooded capes? Also, how many loops can be put on the double ended hook? I just got one finally. I hope to go back this weeked and get the other 2 sizes. I have coupons! :-D I am still looking for the cro-hook thing with the wire in the middle. Any sugestions?
+Rhayne Sthorm I, too, am wondering the same thing. I haven't found any patterns yet.
Does it have to be the same size because I have double sided crochet hook and they are different sizes on one
I've bought all of mine on Amazon. Just search for double-ended crochet hook and the size you want. Very reasonable prices, too.
great tutorial as always Mikey! one question : can I use the same type of stitches here as I do for Tunisian crochet?
I've done this for a long time. the problem with doing any other stitch besides the simple stitch is only every other row would end up having the knot stitch etc. I've only ever used the simple stitch but I would love to see what it would look like if you did a different Tunisian stitch
Im gonna try this I have a double hook for 2yrs . Mikey send me a easy pattern head band. To start.
Can you use all the Tunisian stitches with this cro-knitting please ???🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
do you need to use a larger size crohook like you do in tunisian
Mikey when you go from one end of the needle to the other and turn do you go from right side to wrong side
Mikey, I really like your videos I really do. however what made you use yarn that changes color to demonstrate this? I couldn't see what you were doing or figure it out. this forced me to find another video on the subject and I would rather watch you! I hope you are doing well and continuing to make videos. we need more men who knitting and crochet.
I agree. Come on, Mikey, two different solid colors that are easy to distinguish. You're the best so we want it from you!
what size hooks would you need to do a full size blanket . you make it look so easy . i'd love to try it . thank you for all your videos i'm learning alot from you . god bless you
hi, can i do Tunisian crochet with a crohook?
Would it be wise to just get a set of crohooks do do croknit and tunisian?
MIke, I have looked at Jo-Ann's, Michael's, and A.C. Moore for the double-ended crochet hooks with no luck! Do you know of any other stores that might carry them?
I am located in Southeastern Massachusetts and all I could find were the long (14") Boye Aluminum single-ended afghan hooks.
the best place to get them is eBay and amazon. I got mine on eBay a few years ago.
Mikey, I know this video is older.. but.. how could I use CroHooking to create a headband or a cowl? I guess what I need to know is how to calculate yarn needs and if not working in the round then some general ideas on these two projects with CroHooking. Thoughts?
Hrafn Nordhri the headband would be pretty easy. For the starting chain, make it how wide you want it (as I'm if you want an ear warmer or a really skinny Headband) and then crochet however many rows it takes for it to fit comfortably around your head. Slipstitch the ends together then bam you have a headband
Great tutorial! Can someone please tell me the name of the bright, tropical colored variegated yarn? Thanks!
Hi I believe its Red Heart With Love Variegated 1944 Fruit Punch www.amazon.com/Heart-With-Variegated-Fruit-Punch/dp/B00CF4K0AY -Cathy@The Crochet Crowd ;)
My moher in law had like 20 of the Cro - hooks and i have never been able to figure out how to use it
till now
Great. You're all hooked up with knowledge now.
Does this stitch pattern works only with Cro-hook instead of Tunisian hook? In order to receive the reversible pattern with two different color yarns?
The only way you could do this with a regular tunisian crochet is having 2 of them and move your project from one hook to the other. It's a lot more tedious since it's not on one hook, but it is possible
Where did you get the hooks with the cable? I can't find them.
In my experience tight stitches make very unhygeinic dish cloths. Thendenris doesnt wash out easily and they dont ever seem to dry out so they harbour bacteria and breed mold very quickly.
I have one of these hooks! Now I know what to do with it :)
I am attempting to Cro-Hook some booties and do not understand the instructions for increasing stitches. Please help! Thank-You!
"Ugh, I've got my cat's hair all mixed in with this thing. You probably have the same problem at home." LOL, Yes, I do!!
Ta da ty
Can I use the "hook" for the pattern Trip around the world? Also is it textured?
Val Stanford union and new uyyyyyyyyyyyuuuuuu
It's also called "crochet on the double". I have old patterns with crochet on the double.
What size hook are you using?
Available online ols?
Do you have a video showing how to cro hook an afghan?
lookup Tunisian crochet for plenty of videos on patterns using this technique on scarfs, sweaters and afghans. I just started using this and I love it
What size hook are you using Mikey?
i made my own double end crochet hooks
