What is crocheting used for?

Crochet, like knitting or weaving, is used to turn yarn into fabric. Crocheted fabrics tend to be less stretchy than knitting and thicker than knitting. They tend to be more stretchy than weaving and more textured than weaving. Crochet is especially well suited for making afghans, scarves, lacy edgings and doilies, and stuffed animals. However, you can also use crochet to make sweaters, socks, hats, and just about any other sort of fabric item.

Neither is easier or harder. Some folks have an easier time learning to knit and some to crochet. It also depends on the pattern you tackle. Some patterns are very easy, using simple stitches. Other patterns are more difficult. Some designs might be easier in crochet, some in knitting. It is, for example, easier to do cables in knitting than in crochet though it is possible to do them in both crafts.

Is crocheting fun?

Yes, of course it is! There are a lot of young people today who are crocheting, especially for charity groups, but also for themselves.

You can purchase crocheted and knitted garments in the stores as well. In my opinion, yes, it is very cool.
