When you try to knit...

[Hermits Garden]

It's really just a mental thing. It seems silly that something simple like that would trip me up but haven't had the heart to pick it up again.

No it's not silly. I can't stand knitting--it makes me anxious. I can crochet, but nobody wants to be around me when I try to knit.

I can embroider, but can't cross stitch. Maybe we have perfectionist hangups?

How funny! I can cross stitch but embroidery is intimidating

Don't they call that "second sock syndrome"?

Yes they do! It's why I knit 2 at a time on either 2 circulars or do magic loop lol

Amen, exactly! I use to hate knitting and did only crochet for years, but now I'm a knit addict

I prefer crochet since it doesn't unravel if you drop your hook or something and project seem to move along a lot quicker but I like how knitting looks a lot better.

Yes it's so much simpler to correct mistakes in crochet! I get total anxiety if I drop knit stitches

I know the feeling. Painstakingly trying to pick it back up
