26 Possibly LOL-Worthy Memes About Crocheting And Knitting Hobbies

*gasp* THIS is why I've always felt a sense of... accomplishment with knitting... it's now been put in words. YES!

There are lots of little poems to help one remember the steps. My favorite is "Go into the house, grab your scarf, take it outside before the cat barfs."

English style of knitting seems so complicated compared to continental.

Here I sit. Surrounded by ufo's (unfinished objects). Wasting time with this stuff.

i crochet but i have something similar : stab em, hook the guts, pull em out

Yarn barf :(

I turn all my skeins into balls to prevent this.

I dont knit or crochet but I tuft rugs and this happens to me almost every time.

no way, the yarn barf is way bigger than that

I have a ball winder that does this. I don't know how it works, but it does.

A whole basket full of shawls completely done but for the end weaving. Some so old I don't even remember knitting them.

Wish I had a crafts room

I don't make mistakes in knitting, ever. I make unique stylizations and artistic changes which make a piece truly my own.

That’s what makes handmade so wonderful. Also, there are cultures that deliberately produce a flaw in everything they make. Perfection draws the Devil’s eyes, you see?

Frog it. You'll notice the mistake every time you wear it, and it will drive you crazy.

I die that on a baby blanket. I put it down and never picked it up again.

But is is made out of plastic and will not last a season much less a lifetime. And every stitch that is knitted with the $200 worth of yarn is made with lots of love, curses and wine. So much better than just handing over a ten dollar note.

Because this one was probably made by little children in a sweatshop.

The $200 yarn is probably much better quality, real cotton or wool instead of recycled rubbish. The garment was made by you instead of by a semi-slave worker in a sweatshop in China, Bangladesh or wherever. It's unique, it fits you perfectly and you can choose the exact colour, thickness, length, etc. Yours, if you get good quality materials, will last forever, while the cheap one from the shop will start to lose shape and colour after the second wash. The process of making it will help your brain and your hands to keep active, and, if it's a hobby and your next meal doesn't depend on finishing a certain number of pieces every day, it's relaxing.

disposable trash

Does anybody remember Heathkits ?

Buying yarn is a Hobby on itssfel.

Best pie chart EVER!

Not "girl math," that's knitter/crocheter math.

Everyone makes that mistake. Once.

Still doing that

And tatting is sitting off in the corner by herself.

And we embroiderers know we are loners.

Crochet is like tying a series of knots, and knitting is more of a continuous set of loops depending from one row to the next. I don't know a single crocheter who doesn't correct the person that calls it knitting. Kind of a sensitive comparison.

I knit and crochet. Both have their place. Irish crochet is one of the most intricate fiber crafts there is. That said, I do prefer knitting.

The answer is no.

Well I wasn't expecting the Spanish Inquisition
