Much like knitting, crocheting involves stitching yarn together to make a variety of useful items such as sweaters, hats, blankets, mittens, socks, beanies, scarves, and more. It’s also great for creating home décor items. Crocheting is a relatively easy hobby to pick up and is a popular activity for seniors all over the world. While knitting uses a pair of long needles to form loops, with the stitches being held on the needle, crochet uses a single hook to hook the loops together directly on the piece. This process makes crocheting a bit more user friendly and easier to learn than knitting.
