Product Information

Voxo International Handcrafted Wooden Sky Blue coloured Crochet Hooks Set - Ergonomic and Beautiful - Ideal for Your Creative Projects. So I’m going to keep my Chunky Boy hook inside the cute bag Beth sent it in to keep it as clean as possible. I have a nostalgic soft spot for Clover Amour as my first ever set of ergonomic crochet hooks was a set of Clover Amours. If you wish, you can mark the size of the hook on the outside of the cushion with the permanent marker.

Reduce Hand Pain: both grips reduce hand pain (although I found the larger grip more effective at this for my particular crochet style). Ergonomic hooks can also help improve your grip, making your crocheting experience easier and more enjoyable. Just be sure to only use metal hooks with these grips as the extractor will definitely snap the head off of a hook made of resin, plastic or wood.I no longer suffer from pain in the non-working hand, my yarn tension is better, and projects go quicker. I’m showing you more than one example because I think it’s helpful to recognise the variation within the categories. It looks bulky, but I have learned to crochet just great with it on, I use Clover soft touch crochet hooks.

Hello Chanel my name is Marla and I just bought my first clover hook, I usually use Boye h99ks because the handle is perfect for me. I have been a Boye gal for years; but because I am a crochet addict I had to find a hook that will ease the wrist pain because I can crochet for hours. g. pencil or knife hold), there are some further steps that you can take to improve your grip on your hook. I enjoy your newsletters and as someone else commented you cover subjects that are important to crochet but we rarely think about.I’ve been experimenting with using multiple plugs to secure the hook better and/or using foam pencil grips or other materials to reduce the slipping and spinning inside.

Think about how comfortable you find each technique, not just for your hands but for your overall posture too. My very first impression was confusion and curiosity because how the heck is it comfortable to hold such a thick handle? Crochet Hooks: Soft Grip – Make sure you have all the hooks you need for the projects that you are working on! If you like the working end of a hook but the part you hold is wrong for you, your only hope is to make a clay handle suitable for your grip style. I have a feeling I would really like it with my favourite hook attached, and it may also solve the extra twisting motions I experienced.I often wonder if there is a relationship between grip style and hook preference, but I’m yet to see the science! I’ve had a few people asking what my go to hooks are and the truth is, I use so many different styles of hooks I can’t even count, but I do have a few favourites. If you struggle to keep the yarn on your hook when pulling it through then an inline hook would help with this.

I noticed yarn fuzz and dog hair (my hook fell on the couch, don’t judge me, lol) sticking to the handle. Whether you use the knife grip or a pencil grip, these handles are adjustable to suit every grip type. i hate the boye shaped hooks and i found a japanese style that has a squishy grip and is double ended, but i don’t like the way the hook looks. I thought it looked like my fingers would end up resting on the textured part, too, so I was curious to read your review. Now I have to get to grips with having half my pattern books in UK terminology and the other half with USA instructions!You will need a roll of shelf liner, small hair elastics or rubber bands, and, of course, a crochet hook. If you’re familiar with this blog, then you will know that the designer in me loves to understand how things are put together and how that effects their function. The precise engineering of every hook ensures a smooth, straight shaft that produces an even tension, while the soft, rubber handle provides excellent grip with little strength needed, avoiding cramped hands and tight stitches so you can concentrate on getting your projects finished faster. I had gave Clover Soft a try and let me tell you the comfort and you don’t realize you are still crocheting. Thank you for posting pictures of the hooks in an actual grip – exactly the kind of review I was looking for.
