@Seeler, @crazyheart and @Greywolf336 are all knitters, too, I believe. @Carolla is one of us as well.I've enjoyed the chat too. Maybe we can even attract another knitter to our midst.

Practice making squares (same size) and then they can be joined together to make an afghan.Question is: What would I knit?
Personally, I don't enjoy the joining together part of afghans made in squares. But to each her (or his) own.Practice making squares (same size) and then they can be joined together to make an afghan.![]()
I've never done one yet, but if I did, I'd crochet the squares together as much easier.Personally, I don't enjoy the joining together part of afghans made in squares. But to each her (or his) own.
A scarf in garter stitch is a good first project. Lovely if you use one of the self-striping yarns.
But for a second project it is good to learn how to purl.
It isn't all about him...I'm still the one knitting![]()
You and @Northwind and I . . . all still knitting!
Have enjoyed our chat about the quality of knitting needles.

Funny thing is, all this talk about knitting has me intrigued. OTOH, with my atrocious hand-eye coordination any knitting done by me would likely trigger screams of terror (or laughter).![]()
The decreases on the neckline and armholes are almost too challenging for my tired brain today...but, I'm not quite ready to give up yet.
Crocheting is definitely easier than sewing them together but I still don't find that part enjoyable. More of a task to get through at the end of a project.I've never done one yet, but if I did, I'd crochet the squares together as much easier.

Oh yes, you certainly need to be alert for this activity. Maybe start a dishcloth and get back to it tomorrow?The decreases on the neckline and armholes are almost too challenging for my tired brain today...but, I'm not quite ready to give up yet.
That's partly why I altered this pattern so I didn't have to do any sewing - except shoulder seamsCrocheting is definitely easier than sewing them together but I still don't find that part enjoyable. More of a task to get through at the end of a project.
That it isSuch a pain to tear out knitting and start again. Crocheting is much easier as far as ripping out & resuming your project goes!
It depends on the project - I prefer knitting for some things and crochet for others.But I will add that overall I prefer knitting to crocheting.

I'm still having to rest after each row or two (as I did with the cables) just to focus my mind again![]()
