my favorite hook for amigurumi is a Susan Bates hook with duck tape around the handle haha

A friend gifted me the golden tulip hooks after he saw me using the no-brand hooks I got for very cheap on Amazon. What a difference, not just in grip but also how the yarn slides.

I LOVE Susan Nate’s hooks the inline style is my favorite I do only get the ones with the soft grip handles the thin handled hooks hurt my hands too much

2 year ago, i buy the cheapest set of hooks to try if i like crochet or not, found out i love it. Then i mom took out 2 clover hooks she purchased when i was a baby(or even older over 35 years) and it still my favorite hooks!

I have to say, I am really glad I splurged on some Furls hooks (i fell in love with the Nautilus limited edition, I HAD to have them), and switching from my beginner metal hooks to the Furls resin has really helped me a lot!

I got myself some prym hooks cause people were raving about how good they were, and I regret nothing. I have only used the size 3 one so far cause I haven’t crocheted a whole lot but I am loving it.

All of these are good options
I was taught using a combo of the first 2 but all of them are good options
It doesn’t matter what you use as long as it’s comfortable to you

clover amour hooks will always be my favorite. they completely eliminated my thumb joint pain!

[carolinestreeter]

I didn’t get on with Furls but love the clover soft touch and amour! It’s interesting how we are all different ❤

I just ordered the Clover Amour because the price was excellent. For now I just ordered the 3.5mm hook since it's the main one I use for Amigurumi, but I may get a full set at some point. I'm so excited!

Thank you for this! Am a beginner & this saves a TON of time & money!💝

I would really like to try the Furls hooks, but I absolutely hate inline crochet hooks. Although they look the best when it come to the handle. My favourite hooks are two handmade resin hooks I got on etsy, but the seller doesn't exist anymore. I assume they have used cheap aluminium hooks to cast in a resin handle which looks similar to the furls handle, just flater. The yarn slips so nice on the hooks and the handle feels amazing, I can work with it hours without cramps. So much better than my clover amour hooks.

My hooks are similar to the Clover Amour hooks. I bought them in a Dutch household store without a brand name on it, so they're probably not the exact same. But I like them a lot. They're nice to use and a nice price. And I like that (at least the ones I have) have a different colour handle for each size, so it's easy to find the right size.

Thank you for this informative video! 😃 I just started amigurumi and didn't know what hook was better to get. I was leaning towards Furls and you just confirmed this for me. ❤️ Thank u!

[judithrichards]

My favorite is the Susan Bates with the rubber handle.

Hi there, thank you for the great list😊
For the addi swing, there is a type called "addi swing maxi" which is the same handle but with a longer hook shaft which might make it better. Hope that helps❤

[ellinortolkstam]

My favorite crochet hook is my bamboo hooks I bought from hobbii, they don't get cold like the metal ones and they're affordable🥰🥰

[terrylibbey]

The hooks i like for amigurumi is the hobby lobby brand with the gray handle(cant think of the name rn)
