If you could only own ONE HOOK which one & why?

[Nox]

I really like my "I" hook, but I use my "H" on most of my ami patterns and that's what I do the most.

[DebbiePooh]

Use my F, H and J alot

[HappyOldCro]

Too hard to pick....A size 5 aluminum (or smaller) for yarn and a 7 steel hook for thread. My Bates 5 hook used to be pale blue, but I have it worn down to silver in areas. I am always using almost all of my hooks, I think anything from J and bigger wouldn't be a loss for me, I just like using smaller hooks and finer fibers.

Clover Soft Touch - I often need I to get gauge, but I like the look of my stitches better using the H.

My H hook a Susan Bates Silvalume.

[MamaSwann]

I've been crocheting for 30 yrs now and I'm finding that the older my eyes get the larger my favorite hook gets But I'd have to say I use my Boyle H for most everything.

 

I heard my son ask his daddy where I was. My husband walked over to my crocheting and said "Well honey, her hook is still warm so she can't be far!"

I am an 'H'-er. I love my light-up hooks. I honestly forget the name of them off hand, and I do not use the light that often (even forget I have it sometimes), but I love the way the handle feels.

[CLLinda]

It would be my size H hook, the Susan Bates with the bamboo handle. It's my go-to hook. I just love this one. And I have several in the same size so I can use it whenever I need it.

Size H Susan bates hook because I'm comfortable with the size of yarn i crochet with and it's a smooth hook to crochet with and crochet faster

[DrAnn]

Aluminum H. Right now I'm using a Boye.

[Monique39]

G hook!

[gremlin]

I would not be able to limit to just one. If I could pick two, it would be size N and size H. N for afghans and other projects with worsted weight yarn, and H for cotton and baby yarns. As for type of hook, Boye crohooks (double-ended crochet hooks), both of them. That way I could do the crohook stitches I love for afghans and hot pads, as well as using them for regular crochet stitches. I crochet fairly tight, so the N is the one I use most for afghans. My Mom likes the Susan Bates hooks, but I can't keep the stitches on them - they keep sliding off. I much prefer the Boye hooks.

Steel hook #00. You can crochet yarn and thread with it easily.

[spiritwalker]

I use two hooks the most a J hook for somethings and an N hook for

special afghans.

[KeepsakeKrochet]

I'd have to have my Boye G hook. I use it for most of my project, and I love it!

[rashidah]

My H

[DollCollector]

my H hook its the one I use for pretty much anything

Hi CrochetLuvKnot

 

I would have to agree. The size H/5.00 can be used for a different variety of projects.

[DollCollector]

I actural have to favorites Aluminum susan bates D 3.25 and H 5.00. But if I really had to choice it would have to be H/5.00. For many years I only owned this one because this is the first one my mother ever give me. She did not own many but she had several of size H by different manufractures. Because this is the only one I had for many years I learned how to used it for a variety of items I learned all you have to do is loosen up or tighten up the tension of the yarn.
