What’s Your Favorite Crochet Hook Material and Brand?
By Rachel Choi – 52 CommentsI’ve always wanted to know what other people thought about different crochet hooks. I’ve heard some people claim how great a certain material or brand is and how terrible others are. Honestly, I think it’s a personal choice.
For me, I’m a fan of Susan Bates hooks, just because I’ve been using them the most. They come in all sorts of sizes, from the tiny ones you need for thread to the regular sized ones for popular yarns. What I don’t like about them are the plastic ones. They tend to break too easily. But the metal ones are great (haven’t broken a metal one yet)!
I’ve been wanting to try other hooks, such as bamboo, clover touch (I think that’s the name), and the ones that light up, but they seem so costly. I’d love to know how you like them if you’ve tried them!
What about you? What hooks have you tried? Which ones do you like and dislike?
My favorite are the Clover soft touch crochet hooks. I have tried several brands but these do not hurt my hands even after crocheting for long periods of times.
