BellaOnline Forums Hobbies and Crafts Crochet Aero or Clover hooks ?

If you have either of these hooks would you please let me know if you like them or don't like them ? I am thinking of trying the clover hooks, especially the soft touch ones.

i have one h clover hook, not a soft touch. i've used britney, susan bates, and boye. it's got a boye-like head. i really like my clover because the paint on it makes the yarn really slide. i think i crochet looser on it.

Thanks, I have a clover on the way so that I can try it.

Hi All....sorry for bringing this topic back to the top of the line again, I haven't been able to visit in awhile due to computer trauma, and now that I am able get around online again, I am seeing all the stuff I missed out on, lol! About hooks: I have definite preferences! I can't use the boyd aluminum hooks...for some reason, they "snag and drag" on me, so I avoid them. I am a HUGE fan of the Susan Bates aluminum hooks, which are recognizable to me by their pretty pastel easter colors, lol! Those hooks make the yarn glide so well for me, and they are particularly helpful if I'm using Microspun. Now the Clover soft touch hooks: primo! Love them. Especially when a pattern calls for a smaller hook size. They are less fatiguing to use when you want to sit a crochet for long periods of time. I have periodic bouts of Raynaud's, which makes gripping anything in my hands more challenging....these hooks are a tremendous help.
