Knitting! The universe is held together with a Stockinette Stitch!

Kit says:

I just can't understand crochet, no matter what, I just can't learn it.

Emm says:

Knitting rules, but crochet is cool.

Crochet Rocks! I'm a Happy Hooker, damn it!

Fidelina says:

crochet

BuffaloGal says:

Knowing how to do both makes me feel POWERFUL!

Sabra says:

Crochet. I can do both. I am trying to improve my knitting skills, but keep bumping up against not having the right kind of needles. I have size 9 needles, but only circular, not DPNs. I have size 5 needles, but only DPNs, not straights or circular. I deeply resent having to buy multiples of the same size tool. This is why crocheting is better: flat, round (of ANY diameter, thankyouverymuch), I-cord, whatever--it all takes the same hook!

kristenuhess says:

I only know how to crochet (so far) but I have to admit I think knit stuff seems to look better to me. I'll have to learn. I have stick envy.

Both have their positives. I'd say crochet because I can get a hat done in 2 hours in crochet but it would take me hours sometimes a day or two in knit.

Chelsea says:

I started knitting first but crochet is so much more versatile. By the way I'm only 17, cheers!

MamaKay says:

Crochet! Knitting is too easy to mess up, too hard to undo, and too tiring using kneedles in both hands!

judi says:

crochet is more relaxing! you don't have to keep two hands in the air.

strawberrycouture says:

Both are cool. Crochet is faster. Knitting is more intricate. Check out some neat knitting stitches on htt://knittingfool.com

Yarn Hackers: The Coolest Crochet Ever

0's and 1's are just binary. Sure, if you don't know what binary is, it can be a scary word. Not to worry, though: binary just means that something is only one thing, or another. On or off. Black or White. Knit or Purl. Jus... (more)
