As we said, one of these options is crafts. Like knitting and crocheting. That’s what we’re focusing on today. To be more specific: these memes perfectly summarize what it’s like to be an enthusiast of these crafts. Both of these crafts work with yarn and can create various objects, from sweaters and scarves to dolls or home accessories. The sky’s the limit. He said that the most fulfilling aspect of knitting for him is the process itself: “It’s almost like meditation to me, and it really helps me to unwind in the evening.” Norman believes that planning every knitting project with your time constraints is a must: “If you know that you will be very busy the next month, I personally would pick a smaller project. Otherwise, it can quickly lead to frustration.” Yet, sometimes, when he feels frustrated with a project’s challenges, he doesn’t overanalyze it. He declared that it’s a hobby. It should bring joy, and if there’s a period where it doesn’t – it’s not the end of the world. He also added that in today’s world, he feels things like this shouldn’t be restricted to any social group: “I find the very idea that any hobby or craft was limited to a certain age group or gender preposterous.” Knitting can also be an answer to the fast-fashion dilemma. As Norman said, it can reintroduce value into people’s wardrobes: “If you’ve spent 40 hours knitting a sweater, you probably won’t discard it at the end of the season. And being aware of that fact, you will spend more time on picking a material that will last and a design that will still be relevant next year.” On that note, do you like to knit or crochet?
