Crochet is a wonderful hobby for fun and relaxation. It is a great take-along craft that can be done anywhere, anytime. Crochet stitches are easy to learn, and once you have a few basic stitches under your belt, you can begin to work through some beginner patterns. Once you have mastered the basics, you will be ready to try your hand at some more advanced crochet stitches and patterns.

Crochet allows for open design (in other words, lots of lacy details) in a much more varied way than knitting does, especially for beginners. These are the designs that can stop people in their tracks to admire your work. While learning crochet, one learns many ideas from numerous great crocheters, and he will start to make their techniques his own. Individuals that hate patterns and have a desire to design find that crochet is much more amenable to that. It can certainly be done with knitting, but it will take a bit more time.
