I would love to see lots of videos using the hooked needles!
I will take the suggestion! What specifically you want to see?
@@AndreaWongKnits I would love to see crochet and knit combined. Also, Portuguese knitting using hooked needles. It fascinates me!
@@HollyTriedIt great suggestion! Thank you! I will work on it!
Fascinating, never seen that before❤
Isn’t it, Maureen! And people have been knitting like this for centuries! You can find the needle in my Etsy shop if you want to give this a try. Thank you for your comment!
You are such a gift to the knitting community. Thank you Andrea!
Thank you, Cindy! I enjoy knitting everyday and I am glad I can help others do the same.
Great video...as always! My favorite teacher!!
Dear Debbie, you are the sweetest! Thank you!
Omg, this is new to me!!
It's one of the oldest ways of knitting. The knitting world is full of surprises!
Love using these!❤
I am so glad you enjoy them!!!!😍😍😍
@@AndreaWongKnits still home bound, but you will never know what you have done for me, both mentally an physically, forget easier with the aneurysms on the brain, but I refuse to give up! Still love those videos, watch you on Craftsy now also!
@@cowgirljl can I help some more? Please email me at andreawongknits@gmail.com. Maybe you can help me too!
Does your class include how to make a sock using these hooked needles? I just bought 2 sets from your etsy shop. Im anxious to learn. I can not find any online resources to learn more about using these types of hooks.
Dear Roseann, I am sorry for the late reply but I had a long vacation! I don't have a entire class for knitting socks with these needles, but it would be the same I am doing on this video demonstration. Would you pay for a class on socks if I already show you how to use the needles?
@AndreaWongKnits yes I would most certainly pay for a class that shows how to make a sock from the beginning. Even if just a baby sock. There is not a single other tutorial out there like it. Your brief video of how you are using these hook/needles left me hungry for more. There are probably more like me I certainly can't be the only one? Your work is beautiful. Welcome back from holiday.
Game changer!
I am glad it is useful! I love to use it for my socks!
I wonder if you attached a crochet hook to one end of a interchangeable circular and a regular needle would the same thing be possible? Because everyone talks about using hooked needles if you can't properly throw the yarn so I just want to know have you tried that before?
Yes, that's an idea, but not all interchangeable sets are made to interchange knitting and crochet needles. I know with Denise Set you can do that.
@@AndreaWongKnits knitters pride/knit pro all work together. Love my bamboo!
@@francy4589 Thank you for letting me know, so I can tell my students when I teach this class.
I would love to try the needles!
Thank you so much for sharing
You are most welcome. Any requests, just ask! andreawongknits@gmail.com
Do you know of any videos of people tensioning the yarn in the Portuguese style for crochet?
No, but I thought making one. That's a great idea!
@@AndreaWongKnits that'd be great to see. I tried to figure it out for about half an hour but as I'm very new to knitting this way, it wasn't immediately obvious how to carry over what I've learned to crochet.
@@angrytrees7519 I usually use it for bead crochet. It’s the same, but it has to be tensioned from the pin behind my finger. You will see it😉
Can I use Afghan/Tunisian crochet hook?
If they not have a stopper at the end of the needle, by all means! You need 5 of them, same size. I hope this helps.
Andrea, do hooked needles make bobbles easier? Thanks!
G Pig yes, you can crochet the bobbles as the Japanese do! It makes it way easier!
Watch this video: you don’t need to change needles!

Thank you, Andrea, for referencing the video. That will make my knitting much easier, especially since you stock the ones below size US 4 as well.
Specifically, the hooked needles may give me more control over the size of my finished bobbles.
Two are never the same size! What do you think? I’m thinking I may need to take up a bobbly distanced existence.
How do you purl with the portuguese needles?
Please watch my other videos on TH-cam, where I teach how to purl.
I would live hooked needles. My mom brought them from Azores
I’m also a Portuguese knitter
Thanks for sharing! I would love to go to the Açores!
