Scarves
Dishcloths

Can I use the same yarn for knitting and crochet?

Yes! Most yarns can be used for both knitting and crochet. The finished fabric may look and feel different depending on the technique used.

What yarn is best for beginners?

Medium-weight (DK or worsted) acrylic or wool-blend yarn is ideal for beginners. It’s easy to handle, affordable, and works well with most needles and hooks.

What’s the difference between knitting and crochet?

Knitting uses two needles to create loops, while crochet uses one hook. Knitting typically produces stretchier fabric, while crochet creates thicker, more structured stitches.
