People still do this?? Wow, I thought I was one of a dying breed! Crochet, most certainly! Mom taught me how when I was 14. I haven't made anything in a while, but I still know how!
Crochet for sure!
It's fast, relaxing and perfect for making handmade gifts look even better. Crochet flowers are my favorite.
I find knitting easier to keep straight and follow patterns, but with crocheting it's harder to lose stitches, so I like both.
I don't do either but my mother does and knitting seems to be something I would like to try simply because the needles are bigger and my eyesight would be strenuous with crocheting. Plus I would love to make huge things like scarves and hats and sweaters. I think on the crocheting aspect, you'd probably be working on smaller pieces.
Knitting for some reason is hard for me. Maybe I can't use two hands at once! I like crocheting but haven't done it in years.
