I do everything just like you do but I hold my hook like a pencil.

Looks like I've been doing the rolling without knowing. I have carpal tunnel issues for years so when I took up crochet I simply moved my continental style of knitting to crochet. Then my teacher said "you're doing it wrong". I tried the pencil grip and boy, did my hand hurt. She said knife grip was slow. But what she calls knife hold is not what I do. I do what you do. Rolling. I'm going to start calling it the "rolling knife hold" from now on 😉

I just realized that I've been using the same crochet hold (knife) as you, though most people I've seen prefer the pencil hold. My yarn hold is slightly different as I also use my ring finger with my pinky to control the yarn tension instead of just the pinky (I dont loop the yarn around my pinky, I just rest the yarn between slightly curled ring and pinky fingers.) The new thing I learned from your video is rolling the hook. It's such a novel, mindblowing trick I never would have thought of on my own. Now, I'm super excited to practice the hook roll. Thank you for showing your technique. It's very helpful.

I wish there were more videos ❤

I’m not seeing the difference between using my left and to wrap and keeping my hook straight. It seems either way one of the wrists are going to be twisting. For myself I try to take breaks and even stretch! That’s from the peanut gallery!!🤭😜

Thank you!

Well i bet your thumb will be in bad shape in a few months. Hope not mine is swollen.

Thank you, these make great gifts.

I use the same technique but when I started using Furls Odyssey Crochet Hook it really picked up my speed. The hooks make a huge difference in smoothness and speed.

I use pencil hold, my om taught me and her mom taught her, I've crocheted for 50 years

Sorry to say your slow as I am

Thank you for your slow presentation. Your instructions were very precise! Very helpful and easy to follow 😊

The only thing I can't do is hold my pointer finger up, it's too unnatural for me and looks like it would cause pain or stiffness.

Omg I've just started to roll my hook and I thought I was doing it wrong but it looks sooooo much tidier imo

I am a begginer crocheter and i crochet like this! 🤣 it's just intuition! If you don't follow the "rules" you can actually find the best way by just practicing!

I can't hold the hook knife grip but the pencil. What to do?

Wow!!! Fabulous tips. Had helped me so much. Thanks ❤️❤️

Loved "yarn barf" 😆😆😆.

Thank you so much for breaking things down with all of the information others leave out. I really appreciate you!

In one moment I changed the way I hold my yarn. Thank you so much for your tutorial.

This is pretty much how I've crocheted since I started learning 4 years ago.

What kind of crochet hooks do you use?

My fastest stitch is double crochet, but I am slower at single crochet

Great tips! The thing that slows me down the most is having really tight tension, I have to make myself loosen everything up.

I actually crochet the same way and it’s very efficient. But I’m always fighting to keep feeding more yarn from the skein. No matter what I do, I have to stop and pull more yarn. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Use something on your left finger. I learned that the hard way. The skin on my finger hurts because I’ve been crocheting so fast lol. Simple solution a bandaid protects my finger.

Quite a new crocheter here and the tip that lightbulbs the most was to pull up enough of a loop on the single crochet so the tension is not too tight! Thank you 😊
