Simple crocheting?

Which is better to make a simple blanket for a beginner: Crocheting or Knitting?

  • I want to make a blanket as a gift to my boyfriend for Valentine's Day next month. Which is better to make a blanket? Crocheting, or knitting? Thanks!

  • Answer:

    I would try to make a fleece blanket for him. Fleece comes in great patterns and is easy to work with. You can look for his favorite sport and team or tie dye or camouflage. You can find easy directions on the Internet. You basically take two pieces of fleece the same size and cut equal fringe on each piece. You then place fabric (wrong sides together) and tie each piece of fringe together. Plus this blanket is super soft, warm and cozy. It will wash like a dream too!

i would use crochet so that the project will get done before next month which is 3 and a half weeks away. use super bulky yarn with a large hook to finish the blanket fast.

I prefer crochet. Here is a website with instructional video for crochet if you are interested in learning various stitches. You don't have to be a member to watch and it is all free. http://www.youtube.com/tjw1963

Crochetting is easier to teach knitting. You can teach more and it takes less time

You would be better off learning crochet first, it is easier.

Crocheting is definitely easier. You can find many free crochet patterns at www.crochetpatterncentral.com

Since your a beginner, use crochet. It only takes one needle and is a little less difficult to learn. Crocheting goes a lot faster than knitting and for a blanket, it will be a thicker texture. Knitting takes a lot more practice to get the stitches even and looking good.
