If your crochet stitches are irregular, too tight, or too loose then you’re in the right place! I have some suggestions for you to try…

1. Try different ways of holding your yarn. I have a reel showing examples of popular ways to hold your yarn on my START HERE highlight. Make sure the way you’re holding the yarn works best for you.

2. Use your index finger to control the looseness or tightness of the yarn. The yarn should be moving through your non-dominant hand easily without slack.

3. Hold onto your work as your chaining/stitching this could help you have better control.

4. Make sure the loops on your hook are uniform. If your crochet tends to be tight, then try pulling up on your hook slightly when you pull up a loop. If you tend to crochet loosely, then give your yarn a tug after doing the stitch.

5. Lastly, if you still notice you have a tendency to crochet tight/loose then size up/down your hook half a size! Some people who have been crocheting for a long time use this hack (it’s hard to change crochet habits you’ve done for long periods of time).

Have questions?? Comment below! Do you tend to crochet too tight or loose??

I want yall to try using your opposite hand if you're struggling!! I have been trying to crochet right handed for months and have been struggling. I am right handed!! Last night, I got frustrated and was ready to quit trying to crochet entirely. But before doing that, for giggles, I tried crocheting with my left hand and started crocheting!!! I hold yarn tension better with my right hand!!

I just started last week, and this is the issue I’m struggling with. I just bought online the ring. Idk if it’s good work. Maybe i need more practice 😢

How do you keep it consistent? One minute I’m at the perfect grip and next it’s really loose and it makes my crochet look weird, how do I hold it consistently without having to always re-stitch it?

i wrap my yarn around my index bc i cant control the yarn tension if i hold it between my other fingers (middle ring and pinky)... but its always too tight
