The pendant cutter you have is the thread cutter. They have a yarn cutter pendant with less grooves but thicker grooves to fit the yarn. Love your enthusiasm!

Every craft needs its own “sewing box” there are so many tiny things I use to crochet with: stitch markers, safety eyes, scissors, crochet hooks, darning needles, needle threaders, measuring tape, stitch gauges, etc. the tiny pieces for the hook holder are simply more of those tiny pieces. I have t8ny ziploc bags and sectioned organizers I put in a sewing box. All my stuff is in one place. Less loss. Lesson learned at almost 70 years of age.

Be careful wearing your yarn cutter pendant in the car. It can cut little notches in your seatbelt if you aren't paying attention. Don't ask me how I know. 😅

Sorry if this is annoying or out of place, but as a pencil grab crocheter I struggle to find the real ergonomic way for my crochets, any ideas? I also suffer from back pain because I crochet in a table where I can place my arms so they don't hurt, but my back kills me anyways 😅 (Sorry if asking is inappropriate in any way >

That eye threader is awesome! The darning needle threading hack I use is... Dental floss! Take a length of floss, and fold in half. Thread the loop through the darning needle. Thread your yarn through the floss loop, and then pull the floss back through the darning needle and the yarn pops right through! Super quick and easy, and practically free!

The blue/green ergo handle is my favorite handle above everything I’ve used, and yes, counter clockwise aka Lefty Loosy undoes it easily. I struggled at first too, and yes, you need to save the back for later sizing of the washers. I keep mine with the washers in a sandwich bag in my yarn drawer.

Clover (brand) makes the yarn cutter. Legal for airplanes. I tend to keep it on a keychain or in my tin with hooks. The egg is a must-have for me - my smallest hook is 0.25mm and ridiculously hard to hold. Put the little rubber gaskets in with your stitch markers. ;) I weave as I stitch - typically only have to sew in the final tail or sewing tails for amigurumi (which is easy because I stab the critters). You finishing an icord with so much joy was the best ever. Wonder knitter is a nifty gadget and less intimidating for crocheters than trying to take up knitting. Thank you for noting stuff for folx with nerve damage. So many gizmos are rated without the less-abled in mind. If you have nerve damage or strength issues, carpel tunnel, etc, a lot of that stuff gets overlooked with all the sensational as-seen-on-tv type hacks. I'm sorry you have to deal with those nerve issues, and appreciative that you think of them in your ratings. This video made me like & subscribe. I hope you keep finding things that make you as joyous as the wonder knitter. 😊

I'm also a knife grip crocheter 🤓. I agree -that pendant yarn cutter would be much more convenient if it came with a triangular "ring" for putting it onto a chain, or keyring 😁. That's called I-cord that the fun tool makes. I just made my niece a cord, of crochet cotton, to put a beautiful {IMO}glass ring onto as a necklace. That would have made it way faster and easier than knitting with thread 🧵 in essence. 😮😅 If ya use a DBL pointed needle & don't turn, just slide like 3 or 4 stitches to your working end of the needle... you get I-cord 😊.

Also a hack for threading your needles: if you have a stray piece of paper (I’ve used a post office receipt in a pinch), cut it to where it’s thin enough to fit into the eye of the needle and wrap it around your yarn. Always works because it keeps everything from fraying while you try to squeeze the yarn through. I think I saw that on Instagram or something and it changed my life lol

Oh my God! I never comment on videos really but had to comment on this as I have had the fairy looking hooks for about 7 or 8 years and so amazed that you reviewed them 😊 I love mine and always go back to using them after trying out some other hooks. They were my first crochet hook set when I first started and bought them because they are really beautiful. I agree that they are long and also kind of annoying that the sizes have rubbed off too but I can work out which one is which easy enough. I'm wanting to buy a new set as mine are quite well worn now but struggling to find them again. Love all the other things you have been reviewing too 😊

The cutter that you have is actually for thread, it was used a lot for taking on planes when they would not allow scissors. As for the wonder knitter - I have had one of those for years. They are fantastic, not only can you make a cord - you can also make flat knitting. I also made jewellery with wire and beads. It really is so much fun.

I got that ergonomic handle because even though I'm young, I already have arthritic hands (hereditary). I prefer to crochet with thinner yarn and crochet thread, but the steel hooks hurt my hands. With the handle, I can crochet for a lot longer. I also am a tight crocheter (I actually broke a bamboo hook 😅), so it helps with that too.

I have a pendant yarn cutter made by Clover but the spiral thingies are larger to cut thicker yarn. I used to have a Clover thread cutter that was the size of your yarn cutters. I don't have a chain to put it on but when I was putting my crochet project away I saw a shawl pin aka stitch holder and thought voila! It can hold my yarn cutter because I'm always losing it. Thank you for testing these items. Oh and I forgot, I'm a knife hold crocheter.

For a nice crochet cord you can try this: start with a slipknot, leaving a tail about 2 to three times as long as you want your cord to be. Chain 1. Now fold your end tail over your hook, going from front to back. This creates a second loop on your hook. Yarn over with your working end and pull through both loops. Continue like this to make your cord. Create a second loop with the tail end every time and "chain" through both loops.

Try crocheting with the long hooks in an office chair with arms. There's no table to get in the way and your arms are supported. Ps try putting the rings for the ergonomic holder on a carabiner

Those crochet hooks look very similar to one specific ergnomic lockpick set, I think they’d work best with the pencil grip, the grip thats used to hold lockpicks!

A truth stranger than fiction: according to the TSA's published guidelines you can bring small scissors with you on a plane but not one of those thread/yarn cutters. ( See under "Sewing Needles" 🤷‍♀) I have one of the ergonomic hook holder handles obtained second hand so I never had the directions and some washers are missing. I found the washers can be stored inside the handle when it's not in use. I liked the feel of it when I tried using it, but I found that my 3.75 hook kept rotating inside the handle so that I had to repeat the yarn over motion for every stitch; not sure if that was from the wrong washer or just the hook is too small for compatibility. I hope you'll give us an update after using the bendy hooks for a while, do the hooks pull out of the handles over time?

I really appreciate this! Though as someone new to crochet and worried a little about just how much it's taken over my life, hearing "I've been dealing with nerve damage in my arm from crocheting too much in the past couple years.... so I'm always up for trying new crochet hooks" hit different 😰 I hope you're ok! And I'm starting to worry that this hobby is not the safer alternative to whittling that I thought it was.

Wellll, you aren't likely to cut yourself crocheting... so I think it is still safer than whittling. The danger in crocheting lies in doing it for hours on end without a break... which could probably happen with whittling too...

i have entrapped nerves in both arms from crocheting, might need surgery :( i'm autistic + crochet became my hyperfixation, don't binge crochet. the 'crocheting for 24 hours' challenges make it seem fine but the damage repetitive strain does is devastating. i can't do shit, typing this hurts. take care + be responsible, avoid this nightmare

​@bec7704, have you tried the carpal tunnel wrist braces? They are more meant to be used when sleeping to keep your wrist in a neutral position and allow your muscles and nerves to recover. Repetitive stress injuries do sneak up on uou (like hearing loss). Using a timer to ensure that you have rest and recovery periods is helpful. Edit: I have a touch of carpal tunnel from lots of keyboarding in the 1990's. The wrist brace at night is helpful to me.

@@fredericapanon207 i was using wrist braces a lot to prevent carpal tunnel but instead i got cubital tunnel. i sleep in elbow splints now but i probably need surgery to release the ulnar nerves, it's only getting worse. it's devastating, i'm only 24 :(
