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 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

TEAM TAPERED FOR LIFE!!! (I use in line sometimes, but only in a pinch)

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!

[AdrianaTayy]

Thank you for sharing I’ve found I like both kinds but for different things 😊

[alejandrajennifer]

I love both!! Especially Inline hooks!

[loveeattravelpray]

I have only used tapered hooks, but I like them.

[DTrainsWife]

Very informative. I never really knew the difference before.

[tanyaphilstrom]

you have the best videos! very informative and valuable information

I used to swear by Susan Bates hooks, which are inline until I switched to the Tulip Etimo hooks. I’ve never looked back.

[luciarel]

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! 😂
