I learned knitting from an elderly lady when I was around the age of 12 (we made squares to turn into baby blankets for less fortunate moms. Our class was each paired with an older lady from the church to teach us) In my 30's now and I've been meaning to try crochet to make plushies for my son.
My knitting partner recently passed away at the age of 103 and I thank her every day for teaching me such a fun skill
Oh my goodness! Thank you for sharing! I'm so sorry for your loss. ❤️❤️❤️
I was the 103rd like omg what a coincidence
Oh I love your story❤
103 wow she lived really long. (in my country we have a birthday song that has line that says "may you live to be a hundred and three") I hope her last years were pleasant and hope she didnt suffer because i have a fear of that. I hope her passing was peaceful
@@MaryAnnSweetAngel according to my Mom who still goes to the same church, she passed away in her sleep so it was painless. She was one of the last remaining members of her family as she didn't have any children (I think she had a nephew who was still alive)
I learned to knit when I was 8 and crochet in 7th grade. I like them both for their differences, but I do prefer to knit over crochet.
It's so nice to be able to do both! 🧶🐑🧶🐑
Me too, crocheting is to hard for me and I think that knitting is easier. Probably because my mom knows how to knit
I started crocheting and knitting in the age 2 very young i know it was soo easy🤗🤗
I'm the same! Though I learned Crochet first, then Knitting, I love both!
@@IvymasumaI do not believe you ...at the age of 2 whose leg are you trying to cod...now come off it.😮
I'm almost 65 and have been knitting and crocheting since about age 8. I book learned knitting and was taught crocheting by my father. Over the years, my Grandma helped me increase my skills with both crafts. I didn't know that later on, both of these activities would keep my hands busy and my mind occupied while I underwent cancer treatment. I'm eternally grateful for the people who've helped me increase my skills over the past 55+ years because it's kept me sane.
Awww! Thank you so much for sharing your story and how these crafts helped you through such a difficult trial! ❤️❤️❤️
I'm 17 and was recently diagnosed with epilepsy. I decided to pick up crocheting as a hobby for 2024 to take my mind off of things, so i was very surprised to see you had gone thru something kinda similar! Thanks for this video
That's wonderful that you've found something to help you cope! Wishing you all the best! 🧶🧶🧶
Im 14 and I learned how to crochet about 2 months ago and your videos are SUPER helpful. Some people find it weird that a boy would be crocheting but my parents full supported me and that makes me feel so appreciative of my parents. Thank you for your all your hard work
I don't think it's weird that a boy would crochet. I wish my son would want to learn. Your parents should be proud!
I think that's amazing!!! You're in for company, there are a lot of great men/boys who crochet!! 🧶🧶🧶
Not weird at all! Many youtube crochet videos are men
me too!!
I’m also confused about learning it.
I think it’s more girly, so I think I’ll keep it secret. 🌚
I'm 18 and in university. Having spent my whole teenage years writing assignments, doing tests, learning all this theory and having not much to show for it aside from certificates and endless reports, it's truly rewarding to actually be able to crochet or knit something and hold it in your hands and think "wow, I made this with my own two hands". It's just amazing to have something tangible to show for your efforts, which is why I think it's one of the best hobbies out there. Great video by the way and thanks for sharing your own story xx 🥰
Such a good point!!! Thanks for sharing! 🧶🧶🧶
Hello
It's nice to meet you here
How are you
This is the feeling ! I feel the same ...i have nothing except acadmics to show! I want to learn something else
This is very relatable
About a year ago I went to crochet & knit classes taught by an old, sweet granny. I came to her the first time we met and asked to learn how to make dolls and toys (I didn't know it was called amigurumi back in the time). I fell in love with crocheting and was sure I'd never let go of amigurumi and chunky, fluffy yarn.
Today I finished my first piece of clothing. A cardigan. I'm so proud and thankful for this granny's guidance through my crochet journey, and it touches my heart to see how much she had inspired me to try new things such as thin acrylic yarn and granny squares and clothes.
I love you Gila!
(That's the granny)
Thank you so much for sharing your journey!! Everyone needs a Gila! 🧶🧶🧶
Hi there I taught myself to crochet when I was 18 and went on to make my wedding dress and bridesmaids too.i still crochet at 74 years for charities and your so right it has saved my sanity over the years..I used to knit too but crochet is what I really love.thanks so much I love your channel.💖💖💖
Wow!!! That is amazing! Thank you for sharing! 🧶🧶🧶
I just wanted to say, I got into crocheting for the SAME reason you did. My son was on life support for 12 days and almost died multiple times. I obsessed over watching the monitors and counting each one of his breaths. So to help get my mind off of everything going on, I taught myself to crochet through you & Bella cocoas youTube videos.
Fast forward to present day, my son is doing wonderful and crochet is my passion still!❤️
Oh my goodness!!!!! I'm so glad that your son is better now!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@EliseRoseCrochet yes!❤️ I hope yours is doing well too. We celebrate his 1 year old birthday this month.
Our little RSV warrior💪🏼
@@hannahmailly1236I'm 56 & had 2 rounds of RSV back to back after previously having 2 rounds of Covid. The RSV made me sick out of my mind. I was much sicker with RSV than I was with Covid. I had lots of inhalers,steroids, antivirals, antibiotics... Came down with it last year. I can see why it is so dangerous for babies & toddlers with newer immune systems. For the life of me I don't understand why the FDA won't let anyone under 60 get the RSV shot. No child should ever contract RSV. So glad your child is better. Sad thing is RSV is like stomach flu & as humans we do Not build up immunities to it. We can catch it over & over every season. Truly hope the FDA changes their mind about the vaccine or comes up with ones that are safe for children & adults! Hugs to your lil RSV warrior.💙🙏☺️
I like crochet because it's easier for me. I tried knitting but I just could get the tension right and kept failing projects, but crochet came much easier to me! I'm currently crocheting a large jellyfish for a friend's birthday, as well as a cat sweater for myself. I think crochet and knitting are both wonderful opportunities for self care as well, as it forces you to pay attention to your movements in a way that feel natural and comforting, without being too mind consuming. Have fun friends :D
I totally agree about its benefits as self care! It's something I do for myself and it makes me happy!! 🧶🧶🧶
For me it has always been the opposite, I just can't make the yarn pass through the loops, knitting is much easier
Have you tried different methods of knitting? I found that Russian Speed Knitting, that I found here on TH-cam was a perfect transition from crocheting. But hey, if just crocheting puts a smile on face, then by all means, live it up. Have you ever looked at the patterns by Bonnie Barker? I have the whole collection of her pattern books, if you like doing cables and celtic patterns, you'll love her stuff.
@@richardgodlove9662 oooh, good suggestions, thank you! I'll have to look into Russian knitting and see if that works better.
Omg same. The loops get really tight and I transfer them from one needle to the other
My aunt taught my older sister to knit at family church camp. I was too young at the time so my sisters taught me later on when I was 12! I liked it okay. I never finished anything more than a washcloth or coaster, but I started crocheting when I was 21 when I was pregnant with my 2nd baby. I was nesting so badly! I made stuffed animals & blankets… it came a lot more natural to me than knitting! My one sister still knits beautiful things so we still bond over our love of yarn 🥰

Crochet is very easy for beginners to learn. However, it is the gateway drug for knitting. I think knitting looks nicer and is timeless. I will forever hold a place in my heart for crochet being my first yarn hobby.
Haha, crochet is a gateway drug to knitting!!! 🤣🤣🤣
You are so right. Generally speaking, knitted garments are more elegant and professional looking, maybe because knitting produces a flat fabric. Crochet is a series of knots and I'd say it produces a cute and funky look. Sweaters, cardigans, socks, mittens, etc. - do it in knitting. Just about everything else, crochet may be the way to go. Toys, purses, some kinds of shawls and hats, household accessories - crochet is better. All just in my opinion, of course!
I like the look of knit garments better, but amigurumi is a nice small project that's easy to tuck into my purse.
@@FrothingFanboyjust as you say knitting is sooth and crochet is bumpy, but more importantly knitting is elastic and crocheting is firm. To get the same level of stiffness from knitting it would have to be felted.
To me it feels like crocheting takes forever, so it's reserved for small projects like soft toys. Shawls, hats, gloves, scarves, bags, jumpers, jackets, socks, skirts, shorts, and trousers all get knitted, often nordic style.
@AlchemicKitten @FrothingFanboy
this is the type of feedback I was looking for!! Now I don't feel like I have to choose one or the other❤❤❤ thank you two
I’m a 43 year old guy. My mum taught me to knit when I was 6. I wasn’t good and didn’t stick with it but started again when I was 17. Mostly made knitted toys at that time. Started crochet at 30. Enjoy them both but knitting is still my favourite.
That's wonderful! Thanks for sharing!! 🧶🧶🧶
Hello
It's nice to meet you here
How are you😊
I actually started knitting because I couldn't crochet even when my mother was helping. She said knitting was harder for her but I took to it like crazy. I made my first headband after making some kitchen squares and I was so proud of myself for it. I still want to make a blanket for my baby niece but I'm so afraid tbh 😅
That's great! Don't be afraid!! It's just yarn, nothing bad can happen! 🐑🐑🐑
RIGHT crocheting is super hard for some reason lol but i do love knitting so far. i also wanna try crocheting again tho😭.. maybe after im done with the knitting project i am doing rn. anyways good luck in ur projects and i hope we learn how to crochet also!!
Go for it! Choose an easy pattern. My daughter keeps a tiny blanket I made her. She's planning to give it to her granddaughter.
@@kdcbattlecreek i think ill try again after im done w my knitting project! ty and thats so sweet with the blanket!!
I am a mom from philippines and lately addicted to play brick game... I just realize that I am just wasting my time so I need to look for a hobby that may interest and make me productive... my 20-yr old daughter is interested and doing crochet then she influenced her 12-yr old brother to crochet... when they learned that I am deciding to stop my addiction with brick game they both suggested that I will do crochet but before I decided I watch this video first... and I decided to learn crochet. Thank you so much for this video...
Wonderful!!! It's so nice to get off the phone and do something productive!! I hope you enjoy crocheting! 🧶🧶🧶
My whole family (all the women in my family) are all knitters. I knitted every now and then for maybe 5 years, but couldn't do nothing but working flat. Then, I bought a crochet hook around 2 years ago, and with the help of youtube, I learnt how to crochet very well!
Currently I can do most things without patterns, just by seeing the item, and I am OBSESSED with crocheting!
My brain just can't handle working with multiple needles, and so having to work a singular stitch at a time is sooo easy!
In MY opinion, crocheting is much easier than knitting!
I agree, it is easier! Thanks for sharing! 🧶🧶🧶
i will say being able to figure out the pattern just by seeing is pretty impressive. i have made a few simple projects just from looking at examples and it’s very very satisfying lol.
@@urielcastro1134how do yall learn tjis skill
obsessed with wanting to make animals
I started as a self taught crocheter and have just recently branched out into knitting because my husband saw a KNIT hat pattern he just HAD to have. I taught myself (with the help I f TH-cam) to knit the basics. Having a solid foundation in crochet helped. I already understood how important yarn tension is and how different materials act. Crochet is faster and for me easier but there’s a meditative quality about knitting that I don’t get with crochet.
I completely agree. I felt like knowing how to crochet helped me to grasp the mechanics of knitting quicker. I also find knitting meditative too. 🧶🧶🧶
I am also a self taught knitter than i learnt crochet both via youtube.i find knitting meditative too.also i love the drape and look of knitted garment .
That's interesting; depending on the pattern I find crochet to be quite meditative. I've just finished a series of pattern tests that involved some complex stitching and *lots* of counting, which tends to take all of my attention. Right now I'm giving my brain a break by making an sc beanie with some nice wool.
i was a knitter when i was younger and my children were small, an auntie showed me how to crochet but i didn't think i could do it. then many years later i picked crochet up again and learnt how to read a pattern and even though i am australian\english i found american terms much easier to make sense of and now there is no stopping me i just love it
my grandmother used to crochet her own headscarves and I got interested in them growing up, so she taught me but I never managed to buy my own stuff nor was I able to finish anything because ofc, she had to use her hook. during the pandemic I went crazy with buying materials for both knitting (I started with two barbeque sticks lol) and crocheting but I've never really finished big projects, just a scarf and bags here and there. now that she's gone I feel some sort of pride that I took interest in her passion for crocheting. I have her crochet hook with me but I can only hope to actually finish a project with it because I can get pretty impulsive sometimes and decide to cancel the project midway. watched your video to see the difference between the two hobbies that I've got but I received nostalgia with that little throwback in the video. 😂 thank you for this. I hope people consider these hobbies because they really are truly fulfilling experiences. ❣️
🐑 I love knitting but I have school and I can’t always knit so every holiday or any day off you’ll catch me knitting in my bed covered in blankets. I am 13 and I learned to knit 2 years ago and I love it sooo much. I started knitting because one day I got sick and I was at bed and didn’t have anything to do and so I searched up tutorials and learned to knit. EVERY piece I have made have always failed not until recently I made a sweater vest and now I’m obsessed. Even if I failed a lot the process I just liked so much and yeah I hope I inspired someone❤
That's amazing!!!! You're going to be an incredible knitter when you're my age! 🐑🐑🐑
🧶
I've been crocheting for about 25 years. It's been a nice journey. Started crochet because my impression is that it was easier... 1"stick" versus 2! Always love your videos...very enthusiastic and personable.
Thank you for sharing! I think that's the general consensus, crocheting is a little easier than knitting! ❤
Started with crochet a few weeks back and now I’m also learning knitting :3 it’s one of the best hobby for relaxation and nothing beats the feeling of making something :)
That is awesome!🧶🐑🧶🐑
I learned crochet as a kid and now finally an learning to knit! Crochet I can do just about blindfolded and knitting - I'm so new I have to watch a video every single stitch type change 😮
The best part about knowing how to knit and crochet is that you can combine both of them in one project. It just looks awesome.
I knit continental and I crochet yarn under (amigurumi style). I can't do it any other way. I already crochet pretty loose, unless it's amigurumi so the projects come out also loose. O don't really do gauge because it comes as it comes 😂. I just enjoy the process ❤️
I adore the combination of crochet and knitting too! That's how I design my amigurumi patterns! 🧶🧶🧶
Absolutely!!! I knit a square for a bunny out of a plain yarn, then sew it up, embroider the face, stuff it in, then take white eyelash yarn & crochet in a fluffy tail!!!
Hello
It's nice to meet you here
🧶 I learned how in middle school. I’ve done afghans, scarfs, doilies, wash rags. Now I’m getting into sweaters. I agree there aren’t as many patterns as there are for knit but I think once one learns various construction methods, one could easily design a garment themselves.
Thanks so much for sharing! I think you're right!! Happy Stitching!! 🧶🧶🧶
Yes, once you get the construction methods down you can design your own. This holds true for knitting as well. I've done it for both even though I'm just a beginner at knitting.
@@lisanull900 I wish there was a book that went through different methods in detail. I’m new to trying to read designers patterns for sweaters and I’m finding it difficult to figure out how to modify the sweater to fit me. I also don’t receive an explanation for why they increase where they do. I had a thought last night that maybe I should experiment doing different things making doll or amigarumi size sweaters just to quickly find out what happens if I increase here and there or do this or that. I know the designers know what they are doing but sometimes there instructions leave something to be desired.
@@emrooker I started with baby /toddler sizes. As my kids began to age up many of the patterns had multiple sizing. As I needed to make those multiple sizes....I could see the way they were doing it & why. Although patterns I use mainly came from the 70s - 90s. As I've been doing newer patterns I'm coming into more problems. I'm no expert but I swear many of the designers are doing things the hard way, especially concerning crochet & the resulting fit isn't very good. So if I like the pattern I'll tweak it the 2nd time around & use old methods that work better in my opinion. An example would be infant pants. Seems modern patterns no longer believe they require a crotch & room for the bottom? They fit terrible due to diapers. So I have to dig out an old pattern from my stash & make it properly using that as the base for certain areas. Frustrating.
Also, don't assume you're the problem. I don't know if it's errors in publication or what but some patterns just seriously do Not work even when done precisely. I've also spotted errors in patterns, some serious ones. It's not always you, sometimes it's the pattern.
Increasing/decreasing usually is done to conform to body contours & for sleeves & such & would be decided by typical body measurements. And yes, I wish somewhere there was all this information in one place. My google search bar is often busy. lol Hope that helps a bit. :)
I learnt crochet by my grandma when I was ten and I swear I fell in love with it since then! Now I'm still making bags, carpets, some little toys for my daughter and many more designs! Whenever I am stressed I just grab my crochet stuff and start crocheting it and trust me, once you start, you can't stop. I started knitting 7 months ago and I still love making sweaters and beanies but I like crochet more as a hobby. Anyways, thank you so much for this amazing video, Elise!! ❤
I just randomly got into crocheting and I love it!
I learnt to knit when I was younger but found it harder and slower to begin but I've started crochet and found it a lot easier as you can find easier beginner projects that are nice and small like butterflies or granny squares ect in a way i wasn't able to do with knitting. I also found getting the tension for knitting harder than crochet
Thanks for sharing! 🧶🐑🧶🐑
Yes! Your story sounds exactly like mine! My grandmother taught me how to knit around 10 or 11. I always found it fun but couldn’t get past an uneven square or rectangle. I also wanted to do more than just scarves or fish rags but couldn’t wrap my mind around how to do it with all the loops on the straight needles. So I gave up for awhile. Then in college I wanted to get back into a hobby and thought to try crochet instead of knitting. I taught myself by watching TH-cam tutorials and fell in love. Idk why but it’s just so much easier for me to be able to stab your hook anywhere in your work instead of having to juggle all the stitches on the needles. I find it’s also a lot easier to fix mistakes with crochet. I do wish I could knit better because there are some cute projects I’d like to try but I have tried to pick it up again now that. I have a good base in crocheting and still find it hard, so I’m sticking to crochet for now.
i am a 12 year boy and i learnd how to knit
I learned a little bit of both from my mom and I really can't choose one over the other. I recently picked it back up after many years and it's become a passion!!! I'm finding out through this video that knitting can be used to make toys!!! I want to learn everything!!! Thank you so much for your videos! They are truly invaluable!!! I pray that your son is doing much better!! Blessings!!
Thank you so much! 🧶🐑🧶🐑
I love crochet! My mother said, I learned how to crochet by just watching her crocheting curtains and tablecloth when I was 5 years old, now I can crochet all kinds of pattern by just watching how they make it.
Amazing! 🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶
I have been crocheting for 50? years. I have tried repeatedly to knit and I think I finally figured it out. I was told that longtime crocheters knit differently then people who have only knit. So I started watching longtime crocheters knit. And they do do it and it does work so I will keep practicing.
That's amazing!!! I admire your persistence!! 👏👏👏
Same here! I finally learned to knit last year when I was 64 years old after 50 or so years of crocheting. Watching videos about crocheters knitting helped me immensely. Continental knitting is the most natural way for me to knit since I am crocheter first. I love that I can do both, although my knitting is still stuck in the beginner stages.
I started knitting during the first lockdown and a friend of mine started to crochet I was struggling a bit with finding something easy to knit so I switched to crochet pretty quickly and I am so happy I did! I personally think the patterns are a lot easier to understand even if they are without video instructions. I do still have my knitting needles an I am determined to make a sweater someday but right now I am very happy with just crocheting one
Wonderful! Thanks for sharing! 🧶🐑❤️
Thank you for sharing your experience and the pros and cons in both skills. Really appreciate it!🐑
You're so welcome! 🧶🐑🧶🐑
I’m a knitter and I adore it (I was in the kofte class, too). I’ve been sewing all my life and knitting felt like a natural progression of that, but doesn’t seem to explain my obsession with knitting sheep and bunnies. I would absolutely love to learn crochet. I think I just collect hobbies!
Oh that's amazing!! Did you finish your kofte? Mine is still undone but I'm determined to someday finish it! 🧶🧶🧶
My hand knitting is atrocious, but I find it curious that my crochet is quite neat (although keeping a scarf the same width all the way through is still elusive for me). I know the feeling about collecting hobbies. Its lovely to learn new things, but amazon has taken so much money from me as I buy supplies...
Hello
It's nice to meet you here
How are you 😊❤
🧶🧶🧶 I learned crochet because of the Woobles kits, and there was no one around me that could teach me to knit. So my decision was based off of accessibility for sure. I'm loving learning to crochet sweaters and small garments now! It's been so positive for me. I would love to learn to crochet too, but I definitely am the type of crafter that needs a lot of hand holding;;;
The Woobles kits are adorable!! 🧶🧶🧶
I love the way you transmit your love towards this. I just got back to it after years and you definitely made me even more excited to start than i was before the video. You’re so inspiring!
Awww, I'm so glad! ❤️❤️❤️
I’ve knitted since high school and just learned how to crochet. I like them both but they are absolutely different when you want to make different things. I highly recommend learning both
I love being able to do both! 🧶🐑❤️
My mother taught me to Crochet when I was 7. She and I learned to knit together when I was about 16. I flip flop back and forth depending on what I want to make. Some things are easier to work up in Crochet, others in Knit. (Potholders? Crochet! Washcloths? Knit!) I'm currently working on a Crochet Entrelac blanket. My mother loved the pattern, and the yarn I'm using is some of the last yarn that she ever got me before she passed. It's a labor of love and memory. Both yarncrafts will always hold a very special place in my heart.
Awwww, that is beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing how both crochet and knitting keep you connected to your mom! ❤️❤️❤️
I've only been crocheting for a year but it feels like forever! I became "hooked" when I received a how to crochet kit ,seriously now looking back they gave me a 9mm with worsted yarn LOL! Nobody knew how to crochet in my family I asked my grandmom, my aunt, my mom-nobody *zoom forward 7 months* I told my self YOU ARE GOING TO LEARN THIS! I pulled up a video on TH-cam grabbed a hook and yarn I received from a little get together and it was so hard! (I mean I was only 10-11 so...) but then one day it clicked! And I have been hooked ever since!🧶🧶🧶🧶
That's wonderful! Thanks so much for sharing!! I'm impressed that you were so young and so determined!! Good for you!! ❤
My grandmother knows how to crochet and my sister learned some knitting basics a few years ago. They both sound so interesting and fun!! I'm hoping that learning crochet first will make it easier for me to grasp knitting. I would love to learn about both methods!
Do it! Being bi-craftual is nothing but a benefit. The thing you'll mostly need to learn is yarn tension; you need to hold it firmly enough that it doesn't fall from your fingers, and loosely enough that it'll slide through easily. My first crocheted scarf was so tight that you could lean it against the wall; now my tension's all loosey-goosey and my projects are supple. Have fun, and just relax into the frustration. 😉
Thanks for sharing! 🧶🧶🧶
I started Knitting at about age 17, and then learned to crochet. I ended up liking knitting better because of the pattern choices like you said. But recently Ive been seeing a lot more crochet patterns that are super cute, so I decided to make a granny square jacket for my dog! And that's what brought me to you! I needed some help with the belly band and got side tracked with your videos! Not a problem, I have found them very entertaining, and useful! Thank you!
How fun!!! It's so nice to be able to do both! 🧶❤️🐑
I love it that you're not biased at all. You've presented both knitting and crocheting with their strengths and weaknesses, even your story is very encouraging for either art.
I've been watching my mum crocheting since young and tried learning it but couldn't grasp it. I also saw knitting on TV, I was intrigued with the two sticks (aka knitting needles 🤣), but my mum doesn't know knitting, it was until I was 30 that I picked up knitting through watching TH-cam tutorials, I started with chopsticks but it was hard, and so my mum bought me a pair of straight knitting needles and I was hooked since then.
As for crochet, I actually picked up Tunisian crochet basics first and then it naturally transitioned me to the regular crochet, though I still haven't made any actual project with crochet as there are things I still struggle with.
I'm 37 now, and knitting is still my go-to, I just love making scarves, socks, pillow cases, etc, Knowing both knitting and crochet is of course better, I shall try to make crocheted items soon. Thanks for the inspiration!
I still can't believe I picked up knitting by myself and find it easier (whereas other people say crochet is easier). unfortunately knitting is not very common in my country, let alone for a guy to knit, but it's been very comforting to me in times of stress and loneliness, I have no regrets.
I find knitting easier myself and I think crochet products are also beautiful but I love knitted items better.😄
Thanks so much for sharing! 🧶🐑
I love to read this comment. I was 36 and wanna looking for another hobby beside my regular job. I had tried crochet but it was difficult for me because if i make a different single pull of my finger, the pattern will looks bad. I hope someone will say knitting is easier. Thank you
that's so Awesome!!
I've always done 🐑 but since two days I've done 🧶 and I've fallen in love with both. All I can say is that crochet makes a bit more harsh structures, knitting is always smooth unless the yarn is super stiff, while I found the crochet a little hard. Could just be a me-issue but still, I love both of them.
Thanks for sharing! 🧶🧶🧶
I learnt to crochet by myself when I was a teenager because my grandma and my mom just knitted (I can kint too, but I prefer crochet). I struggled a lot with written patterns, and TH-cam saved me 😅
I love your voice, you speak so clearly and it's amazing I can understand everything without subtitles!!
That's wonderful! Thanks for sharing!! 🧶🧶🧶
I am beginner - intermediate level in both actually, but I learned knitting first. However, i found knitting in the round really tough so I thought I'd learn crochet to be more versatile with my projects. For me, I actually think simple, straight knitting is easier to understand than a simple, straight crochet because with knitting you can see the stitches easily so I don't get lost. With crochet, I find it really hard to even know where to insert my hook because it looks like it could go anywhere, lol. It's like the next stitch is spelled out for you with knitting, but crochet feels more versatile with what you can do. Anyone else?
Thanks for sharing! After reading the comments on this video I think it really depends on how your brain works! But I do think you're right that it's easier to see individual stitches in knitting than crochet! 🧶❤️🐑
I can’t choose. I love knitting and crocheting. 🌸💕
I do too!! 🧶🐑🧶🐑
Have you tried their love child?
Tunisian crochet?
My therapist recommended finding things to do with my hands vs scrolling on my phone and suggested something like knitting. I'm looking forward to learning to knit 🐑
That's awesome!! Sounds like you have a great therapist! ❤️
I love your channel and your persona! Thank you for sharing your story. I am in my end 20’s and have found crocheting again and I am using it to heal my nervous system. Always remembering to keep those shoulders down! 🫶🏼✨
I started learning crochet Two days ago I am very happy with the result I find it easy to learn You just need to focus and It's also fun 💕
Awesome! 🧶🧶🧶
I came here to try and decide which one to start and I’m in tears of admiration and compassion for your journey. What a beautiful story about your life. Thanks for that extra addition. So sweet
Awww! Thank you so much! 🧶🧶🧶
🐑 my mother & grandmother tried to teach me to knit when I was 6 yo & again in my teens, I regret not taking an interest, they were exceptional knitters. It's on my bucket list! (I've been crocheting since I was 17 & love it)
I feel the same way about crochet! My grandmother was a wonderful crocheter and I didn't take the time to learn more as an adult from her. 🧶🧶🧶
My babysitter introduced me to crochet in 3rd grade, but I really got into it in 5th and 6th grade. And now I am absolutely in love with crochet.❤🎈💛💚💙💜
That's wonderful!! 🧶🧶🧶
I learned to crochet a granny square from a home ec teacher (outside of class) when I was 11 or 12. I didn't learn how to read a pattern or some more complex stitches until I was close to 30. I always wanted to learn to knit and looked at books over the years, but when my kids got older I discovered all the videos on TH-cam for knitting and crochet. Then I was able to pick up where I left off on my knitting learning journey. I avidly do both. I think that for someone who is sitting on the fence about which to start, I tell them they may want to start with crochet. I feel it helped me when learning knitting. If somebody learns crochet they can always later learn to knit like we have. One of the reasons I wanted to knit was because of all the patterns I came across decades ago. You are right. Today there are so many more patterns emerging than ever before!
Thanks for sharing! 🧶🐑🧶🐑
When I was 17 I came across a knitting and crochet instruction booklet in my grandmother’s things after she passed away. I tried to learn both knitting and crochet, but I could not get the hang of knitting ( I was too tense and the stitches were too tight). I went on to crochet throughout college. I went to medical school and became a doctor. There was no time for hobbies. In my early fifties, I took up my crochet again. I had a woman physician friend who was a knitter and had helped her daughter start a local knit shop. I joined their knitting groups and learned to knit with a lot of help from TH-cam. I became a good knitter, but also discovered a lot of new and beautiful crochet projects. I joined a wonderful crochet along “Nuts about Squares” and made a beautiful afghan. I realized the that I still loved crochet.
That is wonderful! Thank you so much for sharing your journey! ❤
i've been crocheting for the past eight months or so (and i absolutely love it!!) and i recently thought about taking up knitting as well - thanks for this video! super helpful!
You're so welcome! 🧶🧶🧶
🧶I learned to crochet from my mother in law 30 plus years ago. I put it down for about 15 plus years raising my two daughters but since they’ve moved out we are now empty nesters & I’ve picked it back up. I love it. It’s relaxing & so rewarding. I’d love to learn to knit. It looks very difficult though. I’m also taking a stab at quilting. We shall see. Thanks for your video ❤
I learnt to knit when I was in fifth grade. Later at age 27 I learnt crochet from my grandmother. I found that I enjoyed crocheting over knitting and haven't stopped since. Crocheting also helped me deal with pain due to fibroids. It's my favourite yarn craft, as it's easier to carry my WIPs and hooks around with me when waiting for the doctor's appointment.
I watched this video about a month and a half ago to decide what to do and I went with crochet because I tried knitting in the past, but had problems with tension. It’s a really nice feeling to be able to create something and finally have a hobby (after decades of wanting one)!! I’m realizing I never really gave knitting a chance, so I’m gonna try it again. I really wanna make a sweater for my dog 😊
That's wonderful!!! It really is such a great feeling to make something with your own two hands! 🧶🧶🧶
oh my gosh your joy & enthusiasm for these crafts is infectious - I love it!! thank you for making a video like this, I wish I would have watched something like this before picking up knitting a few years ago & getting frustrated to the point of quitting. I’m making a comeback now for crochet & I agree, it is much easier & a really great starting point for folks new to needle crafts. Hopefully I’ll get good/confident enough in my crochet to eventually tackle knitting again, like you did!
I'm so glad you took a break but are coming back to yarn crafts! 🧶🧶🧶
🧶 i'm gonna start crocheting soon and i'm so excited! i've been wanting to do it for a long time but i always get intimidated. i will be watching more of your videos! also unrelated but your skin is literally flawless!
That's wonderful!! Enjoy your new hobby! 🧶🧶🧶
After seeing your video, I decided to crochet because it showed who I am. I went to Amazon and asked my mother to order yarn and hooks. They arrived yesterday and since yesterday I have been crocheting and till now I have learnt how to chain and single crochet...I am now making my first dish cloth (I think that's what you call it)... I am so happy I came across you channel....
I do both, and I love both! I'm currently into crochet, but seeing your knitted stuffed animals in sweaters makes me want to do them! Thank you for your videos!
It really is wonderful to be able to be able to do both! 💛
I learned to crochet over 50 years ago but didn't learn to knit until 2019, when I was nearly 62. I was recovering from a difficult surgery and needed something sedentary to focus on. I'm still a beginner, but I do love to knit. I've graduated to thread crochet and doilies as an "old lady". I love to crochet as well.
That's so wonderful that you took up knitting when you needed a good distraction! And doilies are so amazing! Sounds like you're having fun with it all! ❤
I love crocheting. i’ve only been doing it about two years now and I’m in my 50 years. So I started late in life. My family loves that I do it because they get lots of things. I made my wonderful husband, a beautiful blanket for Christmas and it shows my love every time he looks at it. I highly recommend crochet or knitting for anybody with anxiety problems. I have a lot of stress. I find crocheting to be very relaxing. I’ve tried knitting, but it’s a little awkward from me. Thanks for your easy instructions and great ideas Elise.
That's wonderful!!! I love that you didn't let a silly age number stop you from learning! 🧶❤️🧶❤️
Glad your video popped on my feed! My mom taught me both when I was 15.Though never practiced it, I’m back at it and trying to learn this skill❤ thank you for educating us on the difference. For me I prefer knitting over crochet (though crochet is what I’m trying to relearn)
I tried crochet a billion times as a kid. Im left handed, so most things being taught to me where by right handers, and i just couldn't understand it. At 17 i tried knitting, learned from my highschool physics teacher, who taught english "throwing" method. Loved it! It made more sense. I tried crochet a couple more times (yarn in left hand, hook in right) still couldnt get it. Finally it clicked!! Yarn in RIGHT hand, likw for knitting, and hook in left hand, like a pencil. Now i do both! I prefer crochet for the fastness and versatility of the stitches, but loveee the way knit looks for clothing
That's wonderful!! As a mom of two lefties I understand the challenges!!! Glad you were able to figure it out!! 🧶🧶🧶
Thank you so much for your post. I can honestly say I don't think I have ever heard such an encouraging words. I have been trying to learn to knit for years but I always get frustrated and give up. But after listening to you I am ready to try again and not give up this time. Thank you for sharing❤. PS...your little animals are adorable.
I'm so glad the video was helpful! 🐑🐑🐑
Hey, im autistic and one of my special interests is crocheting so i decided to comment on a video for onec :>
I learned to crochet for my birthday (i turned 15 a couple months ago and my grandma offered to teach me because i reallyyyy wanted to learn!) and i was debating on if i should learn how to knit or not, because thats what she offered first but im the most impatient fuck ever and i cannottt deal with mistakes, but this made me decide i wanted to learn! So, thanks a lot for this video, it was a very nice watch :))
Thanks so much for sharing!! Enjoy your new hobby! ❤
Can we please just appreciate how much effort Elise puts into her videos?!! 😍❤🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤🤍
Awww, you're so sweet! Thank you! 🧶🧶🧶
❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜🩷
Why all the colors?
@@miguelquazar883 Why Not?
I have really enjoyed your videos as well!
Hi Elise! I hope you are feeling better! My Aunt Josie taught me how to crochet when I was about 9 years old. She started me out on a Barbie coat. I was frustrated and lost interest. She told me to keep trying even if I didn’t like it because some day I would enjoy it and find it relaxing. I picked it up again in my early 20s thanks to a girl I worked with and another girl I went to lunch with. I learned to knit at around 11 or 12 years old from my friend’s mom. She taught me the garter stitch, but I don’t remember how I learned to purl. In my early 20s I had a boyfriend who wanted a vest, but I didn’t know how to read knitting or crocheting patterns. I was so blessed to live next-door to a lady who taught in a yarn shop. I offered to pay her to teach me how to make a knitted vest. That dear lady didn’t let me pay - she was widowed and enjoyed the company! She taught me the knit-on cast on, ribbing, cables, button holes, and how to stitch the parts together, all the while teaching me how to read a pattern and the importance of keeping gauge! After that, I attempted making a pullover vest for myself, but it was turning out enormous! I took it to my neighbor to see what I was doing wrong. She kept it and the pattern overnight. The next day she said I did nothing wrong, but there was a mistake in the pattern. I finished the vest and gave it to my mother’s friend who cherished it. I asked my neighbor how would I know if a pattern had a mistake in it, and she said that it comes with experience. She was SO correct! I’m 70 now, and my aunt and my beloved neighbor have been gone for years. How I miss them! My neighbor’s sons gave me her canister of knitting needles, and I can ‘feel’ her presence whenever I use them! Thanks, Elise, for a great video! I recommend learning crochet first, but DO learn both - students will never regret learning both crafts! I enjoy our Saturday TH-cam visits! 😻😽💕☺️
What a wonderful story of how you learned crocheting and knitting! I love that you now have your neighbor's knitting needles! I thought I would update you and let you know that Pickle and Olive are starting to get along!! It's been wonderful to see them together!! ❤
@@EliseRoseCrochet I’m so happy for you and your cats! I adopted Brat and Webster together. He liked her, but she wanted nothing to do with him, poor little guy! They are both gone now, but I have Daisy Mae. When I adopted her, I had planned to take two. The rescue place said she didn’t hang out with any cats, not even the ones she lived with previously. She is a loner until bed time, then she’s a cuddle bug!
@@bratsmom6749 so sweet! I think Olive would be happier without her little brother, but I'm so proud of her for learning to accept him!
Brat’s Mom, I love your story! Once we learn and practice, we know when a pattern is correct. 🥰
Thank you for being so encouraging ❤️ I'm a bit nervous, but so excited to learn these skills 😊
Don't be nervous! It's just yarn and mistakes will happen! It's all part of the process! Enjoy yourself! ❤️
Hello
It's nice to meet you here
How are you😊❤
Your enthusiasm and delivery has completely inspired me 🎉 thank you 😊
I'm so glad! Thank you! ❤️
I started with crochet because my aunt, who passed a few years ago, taught me the very basics as a child the same as your grandma did with you. She was always working on some project when I was over, usually an afghan blanket. I didn't know enough to make much and I didn't know about patterns, so I never really made anything. Lately I've been seeing friends crochet things and it got me wanting to pick it back up, so now about 20 years after I learned the basics I grabbed some old yarn and my crochet hooks and found a pattern online. Had to learn a new stich for it but I'm about halfway through my first real project, which is a ribbed beanie. This is just a practice one and I picked up a gorgeous teal and cream yarn to make my next one. I want to continue to learn crochet, I really want to make the cute little animals, but eventually I would like to try knitting as well.
Wonderful!! Thank you for sharing! 🧶🧶🧶
Hey Elise! I've been a long time crocheter (since 2008) and I just seriously started knitting this year. (I tried to learn last year but I gave up after failing to learn how to purl lol) This year I was determined to learn how to knit so I could knit a pair of socks. I am finding knitting to be so much fun and after getting over that learning curve it's not as hard as I first thought. I find continental knitting easier since I'm coming from crocheting and holding the yarn in my left hand. I definitely think that crocheting is easier (or maybe I'm biased) because you're less likely to drop stitches and the hook makes gripping the yarn easier. There are a lot of different crochet stitches to learn, but making a mistake is much easier to fix. Love your videos :)
Thank you so much for sharing! I had a very similar experience! It's wonderful to be able to switch back and forth between the two now!! 🧶🐑🧶🐑
I am already a crocheter. Looking to add knitting 🧶🐑
I totally agree with you! I started out knitting in college (very basic, scarves & blankets) and recently gave crochet another try while I was recovering from a surgery. I’m loving crochet!! It’s so much quicker!!! It took a bit to get the hang of it, but now that I have the basics down & have found some very helpful YT and TikTok accounts, I’m feeling more confident. I will say, it’s easier for me to multitask and knit if I’m not doing much color work but I think that’s due to muscle memory.
@@cindycam9651 same here!
I learnt to crochet when I was 10 yrs old from my aunt because I was in the hospital for weeks in traction and for surgery. She taught me to make basic granny squares (I eventually taught my grandmother). I know I learnt to knit when I was a Brownie, but I’m not sure how old I was. We knit basic squares from synthetic, almost neon, variegated yarns. It was the 70s, what can I say. I always dabbled a bit with both until I became a bit of a hardcore knitter in university. I started making and selling Icelandic sweaters, which were very popular in the 80s. I find, now that I’m older, that crochet is harder on my hands and knitting actually makes them feel better. I love to knit socks. I love how portable they are as projects. I never make socks for myself though, I give them all away.
Thank you so much for sharing! Icelandic sweaters are very popular these days as well! Knitting socks is such a wonderful pastime! I've only made two pairs but they feel so nice on my feet!! 🧦🧦🧦
I have been crocheting for two years and I truly love it I make amigurimi toys constantly.
Me too!! 🤣🤣🤣
Wow, just watching this video today and our stories are almost the same!
Except mine is my 19 year old stepson, but I am at that stage where everything is so up in the air with epilepsy treatment, and we have had 5 hospital visits in the last month due to injuries and all sorts of treatment changes.
I just bought a beginner crochet kit and found your channel.
I mainly wanted to pick up a craft I could do if I end up sitting in the hospital for days on end again, so thank you for sharing your story. So glad I found your channel and I will be indulging over the coming weeks. Thank you! ❤
My heart goes out to you and your family. It's such a difficult condition and it helps having something positive to focus on! 🧶🧶🧶
I learned to crochet in high-school after seeing a cloche on the cover of a magazine in the grocery store. I was hooked.
Fast forward 25 years I learned to knit and made all the things so... 🐑🧶🐑🧶🧶🐑🐑
Love your channel!
Haha!! I totally get it!! I'm team 🧶🐑🧶🐑🧶🐑🧶🐑 as well!! ❤️
Oh my.. but, I love them both!!! I'm knitting fingerless gloves, right now and working on a crocheted temperature blanket and a hat. So, fun to do them both. Loved this episode! love,hugs,prayers.
Thank you so much!! Your projects sound amazing!! 🧶🐑🧶🐑
I'm also now facing similar health problem in this stage of life. And now I am having my mind on this so excited and hopeful again. Thank you! May god bless you and your family.
That's wonderful!!! Enjoy your new crafting adventure! ❤️
I learned to knit from my Mother-in-law about 10 years ago. She was always knitting sweaters, blankets and hats for the family. After many years of enjoying her knitted gifts, I asked her to teach me and I began my knitting journey. I made a simple shawl and absolutely fell in love with the knitting process. Then she began to teach me crochet. I was 10 chains into my first row and all of a sudden, my fingers just knew what to do! I had a sudden flashback to my childhood when I was about 10 years old or so and my Grandmother was teaching me to crochet! It was a wonderful lost memory for me as my Grandma had passed on many years before. Since then I have never looked back. I have made so many baby hats & blankets & sweaters for friends and family that I've lost count. Both handcrafts bring me great joy, but I think when making blankets or throws that Crochet is the way to go. Knitting is nicer for hats and sweaters, IMO.
So learn both and see what your hands and imagination can do!!
That's so wonderful! Thank you so much for sharing your sweet memories! ❤
Some additional misc thoughts on this topic:
Knitting is much trickier in a motor control sense, in my opinion. I have been knitting continental for >10 years, but even now sometimes I still struggle to control tension on purl stitches. It's legitimately hard! However, I find crochet to be much trickier in terms of visually parsing the stitches and knowing where to stick the hook. With knitting, everything is very orderly and it's easy to see what's going on. Crochet takes more active concentration to avoid mistakes, and the way that crochet stitches look can vary a lot with the yarn you are using, which is confusing as a beginner.
One major advantage of knitting is that sometimes when you make a mistake (like dropping a stitch) you don't necessarily have to frog anything to fix it. But knitting is more vulnerable to, eg. losing a lot of rows all at once if your work falls off the needle while in storage or something. Crochet is nice and stable, and you can stow it away stress-free.
Finally, maybe it's just me, but I find the action of crochet so much more comfortable. If I knit continuously for several hours, at some point I'm forced to stop because my hands start burning. I have never hit that wall with crochet.
Overall I much prefer knit items as the resulting fabric is so much nicer, but ironically I crochet almost exclusively these days mostly because of the last point. Ergonomics counts for a lot.
Hopefully these notes are helpful to someone! I think it doesn't matter which one you start with, just go for it and don't give up 😁✨
Thank you so much for sharing!! You made so many great points! 🧶🧶🧶
Thinking about learning how to Crochet! Thank you for making this video! I love your energy! You are so beautiful and encouraging!!!! Can't wait to watch more of your videos!!!
Thank you so much! 🧶🧶🧶
Thank you for your video.
I have been wanting to try either crochet or knitting for a while now, but I did not know the differences.
Your video helped me to decide to try 🧶 crochet.
Over the next month I will watch videos and gather some supplies after I get paid in a few weeks.
Thank you
Glad it was helpful! 🧶🧶🧶
I've been crocheting on and off for the past 2 years, made some pieces, always wanted to get back into it, but today I discovered Claire Garland's knitted animals patterns and I WILL LEARN TO KNIT! Something about the look of crocheted clothing I never really liked too much, and knitted textiles just look more timeless to my eyes. So i'm excited to start my knitted journey :)
Her patterns are gorgeous! 🧶🧶🧶
I do both 🧶 & 🐑. I started with crochet and then started fancying knitting so learnt that too xx
Wonderful! ❤
I started crocheting in February of 2023. My friend taught me how to single crochet and from there on I pretty much taught myself using the internet (thanks TH-cam! :D).
I've always wanted to learn how to knit as well, so my friend (the one who crochets too) got me knitting needles for my birthday and I can't wait to start!
Wonderful! Thanks for sharing!! 🧶🐑🧶🐑
Excellent tutorial… visual and voiceover perfect! Thank you ❤
You are so welcome! ❤️
I love your channel and I picked crochet. I am absolutely addicted to crocheting amigurumi! I currently just made an axolotol. I always go to your channel because you have been doing this hobby for awhile, and you explain things crystal clear. Your tips on crocheting helped me a lot!
Thank you so much!! 🧶🧶🧶
@@EliseRoseCrochet no, thank you!!
I learned a few basics of crochet from my mother when I was 14, but I couldn't do much because she was left handed. It wasn't until my late 20's that I found a book on crochet and taught myself the rest.
In my 40's, I decided I wanted to learn to knit, so I took a class at Michael's. I like both knitting and crochet. They both bring me a lot of joy. I've crocheted or knitted tons of scarves, potholders, socks, amigurumi, and I'm currently working on crocheting an afghan.
That's wonderful! Thanks for sharing! 🧶🐑🧶🐑
Your story resembles mine. My grandmother was a professional seamstress & also did beautiful crochet dresses & spectacular doll dresses. She taught me how to hand sow, and I learned a crochet pattern that she called a ladder. I didn't continue the crochet & now 60 years later & want to learn. Thanks for helping me make my mind 🧶it is! 😊
Wonderful! 🧶🧶🧶
I learnt how to crochet about a year ago, and started knitting this month! I think I love both of them equally, which is surprising because I thought I wouldn't like knitting. A tip for ADHDers: start with something that will challenge you so you won't get bored! I just finished the Honeycomb Aran Sweater as my first ever knitting project, and now I'm hooked :))
Thank you so much for the great video! ❤❤❤
🧶 I am obsessed with crochet. My grandmother taught me when I was young and I crocheted patchwork purses and sold them to my classmates. Fun memory. I picked it up again in 2021 and after making blankets, shawls, granny square pillows, and toys, I am focusing more on the small things. I already have the yarn for making your two bunnies! I can’t knit the scarf so I guess I’ll crochet a small stitch to invent one. They’re so adorable! Love your channel.
That's so amazing! 🧶🧶🧶
Your story is kinda similar to mine! I have a seasoned crocheter/knitter mom who taught me to make a chain snake when I was 9, but then summer ended and I never learned more. Only recently while researching crochet designs for a fundraiser did I fall in love with crocheting, at 17. Suffice to say my mom is more than thrilled.
That is wonderful to have something like that in common! ❤
Hello
It's nice to meet you here
How are you doing 😊❤
Elise you're fabulous. You always make me feel so cozy and inspired also❤ thank you.
Awww! Thank you! ❤️
First of all…i love your sweater! Second…YOU HAVE PERFECT SKIN I hope that the stress relief of crocheting makes my skin flawless like yours 🩷
🐑🧶 In the process of learning knitting. You inspired me to try Amigurumi. I have made the beginner cat you taught and the bitty bunny. A lot of fun! Thank you for your time and effort you have put into teaching.
Wonderful! Thank you for sharing! ❤
My whole friend group got into knitting and crocheting recently. My best friend had knitted for like two years and she switched to crocheting the past few months and finds it much easier and more fun. Another friend has also knitted for about two years and just got into crocheting a few days ago because of the afformentioned person. A friend started learning crocheting to he able to make himself a plushie. Another wanted to learn to knit with the friend who just got into crocheting and now he's gotten the hang of knitting very well, while she is having fun crocheting. I was over at said best friend's house a few months ago where she taught me to knit and I made a few jagged rows. Now I am properly getting into it to join in the fun with everyone and to learn to make plushies since I love those. Crocheting looks like the right option for me, the patterns look really great and the toys will make amazing presents as I love crafting gifts for my friends. Really cool video, I love it.
That's wonderful!! I love crocheting toys too!! Thanks for sharing!! 🧶🧶🧶
