About Clover Amour Crochet Hooks

Clover Amour Crochet Hooks are known for their comfortable easy grip handles that are both ergonomic and come in vibrant colors.  Each specific size of mm hook is a specific color so you will never have to wonder which size is which, you can easily tell by what color the handle is for easy identification.  They come in many hook sizes from 0.60mm to 15mm.

The hooks are made with an elastomer rubber handle so that can provide you with a comfortable grip and you can enjoy hours of relaxing crochet without hand pain.

The smaller sizes of Clover Armour Hooks have a steel hook shaft, the standard sizes have a metal aluminum shaft and the larger sizes have a shaft made out of ABS resin.  All of these materials have a super smooth shaft and make for a smooth crocheting experience.

Reason Why I Like Clover Crochet Hooks

Personally, Clover Crochet Hooks are some of (if not) my favorite crochet hooks that I have used to date!  They are lightweight, ergonomic, colorful, affordable and just overall a fantastic set of hooks.

The Amour handles fit in my hand perfectly and when I crochet, my hands never feel fatigued or hurt.  They are my go to hooks when I start any project!

I don’t think that I can stress enough that not all crochet hooks are created equal.  And, these Clover Amour hooks are beyond smooth when it comes to crocheting.  I honestly don’t know if I’ve ever used a crochet hook that glides so well through the yarn and stitches as these aluminum hooks.

Clover Amour hooks are also great for different crocheting styles.  So, whether you do a knife hold or a pencil grip when you crochet, these hooks are perfect for both styles as they are lightweight and have an ergonomic handle.

Where Can I Buy Clover Amour Crochet Hooks?

There are a few different ways to buy Clover Armour crochet hooks.  You can buy them individually and build you collection one by one or you can buy them as a set (at least you can for the smaller sizes up to size J).  

The best bang for your buck is to buy the 10 hook set with sizes B / 2.25mm all the way to a J / 6.00mm hook.  Then you can add the larger sizes one by one as they don’t come in a set.

As far as pricing goes, unless you have a coupon or they are just on sale, places like Joann and Michael’s are usually a bit pricier than Amazon.  I personally bought my 10 hook set off of Amazon because it is the best price that I have seen.

Even if you order them off of the Clover website, they are still more expensive than Amazon.  Generally, the 10 hook set on Amazon is about $40 (plus free shipping) give or take a couple dollars because the price seems to go up and down randomly (haha), whereas the 10 hook set is $79.95 on the Clover website.

So, you can see the obvious choice here.

I recently just checked Joann and they are $87.99 for the set of 10 hooks.  Of course, if you have a coupon or something there, you could get them cheaper.

What is the difference between etimo and clover amour?  The difference is in the handle.  The Clover Amour is flat where you thumb will rest and on the Clover Etimo hooks the handle is more rounded.

Are Clover Amour hooks inline or tapered? Clover Amour hooks are tapered in style.  They are also a very ergonomic crochet hook as they have an easy grip handle and smooth shaft that the yarn can just glide over.

How long is a clover crochet hook?  ​The standard sizes of Clover Amour hooks (sizes B – J) are 5.5” in length.  The larger sizes (K & up) are longer.

Should amigurumi crochet hooks be tapered or inline?  Most crocheters that make amigurumi will agree that tapered hooks tend to work better for amigurumi.  The reason being that it seems like you have more control over the stitch tightness with a tapered hook than an inline hook.  Clover Amour crochet hooks are the perfect hooks to use when making amigurumi!
