I have always made the X way. And I crochet trough one loop not both, this way the left "loop" will close the gap







This one is the one I crochet (on the right)

Hello!
Interesting question. I use both techniques. I find it easier to make the point in v than in x, but its just out of habit.

When I first learned how to crochet I tried following the YouTube videos as closely as possible which resulted in everything I made having that v stitch. I remember absolutely hating how it looked because I was envious of people who made amigurumi with the x look lol. Eventually, I learned how to make that stitch round four years ago so Ive never gone back to the v stitch which I like to joke its a trauma response

I love X stitch, makes the amigurumi tight and look extremely neat! My goal is to try to make those stitches in straight line.

x stitch, definitely

I learned v, but keen to try x as my items can be a bit loose

I know and have uysed the Yarn Under technique and I know it can make a piece look cleaner but I just CANNOT do it efficiently and quickly the way I can a standard Yarn Over. Its just not for me and the subjective gains in looks is nto worth the insane amount of effort Id have to add to a piece I am making.
