Knitting is one of my favourite hobbies and knowing how to knit, knitting stitches and knitting patterns is important for the beginner. Once these have been mastered you may like to try baby knitting patterns and knitted scarves. Crochet is another favourite hobby. I have been doing it for 50 years. Itaught myself how to crochet and after learning the crochet stitches began making crochet granny squares which I then made into a blanket. You can have many happy hours with crochet by making crochet scarves, crochet blankets, crochet baby blankets.
