I would also agree that it’s great to learn both crafts, but I would start with crochet first as I think that’s easier to learn (personal experience). Another thing to keep in mind is that there are two main knitting styles — “Continental”, in which the yarn is held the same way that you do with crochet, and “English”, in which the yarn is held in the right hand — opposite of crochet and Continental. Many knitters who say they have trouble learning crochet, and many crocheters who say they have trouble learning to knit have problems when they do English style knitting because it means having to learn how to hold the yarn all over again. Once you learn how to knit in one style, it becomes a bit easier to learn the other style if you want. (And it is good to eventually know both if you really get into knitting) So I would encourage you to learn crochet, then Continental style knitting, then English style if you’d like. Just “feels” like a more logical progression to me and others I have discussed this with.It’s also great if you can find someone who does these crafts to be able to help you with hints and such that you can only get watching and talking to people. Look for classes at a yarn store or your local library, or check out book stores or coffee shops to see if they have knitting/crocheting groups that meet there and stop by. We are mostly a very friendly group of people who love to share our craft with others and always happy to bring a newbie into the fold.

My mom used to do that with vest and tops of all kinds, she did the pattern the same as to cut it out and sew it, just did it into crochet. I just make my own with no pattern, but to make the crochet pattern as I go, also with shawls.I turn quilt patterns into crochet patterns, six and eight pointed stars in single crochet, half double crochet, double crochet, or afghan stitch.You never know what you can do until you try it.

you know what, instead of a book i would recommend http://www.knittinghelp.com because they have great videos to get you started (and to keep you going, for that matter). For materials, I would recommend the cheapest yarn you can find at Walmart, which is Red Heart Super Saver. Get it in worsted weight (the one with a big 4 on the back), most of it is, so it shouldn’t be hard to find. For needles I recommend a size 10 or 10 1/2, its a good size for learning. See if you can find ones that are made out of bamboo, I don’t think its good to start out with aluminum since they are slippery and heavy, I don’t think Walmart has bamboo, so you might have to settle for plastic. You can find bamboo needles and all of these materials at craft strores like Michaels, Hobby Lobby, Joann Fabrics, and A.C. Moore. Good luck! I hope to see you on knittinghelp.com!

A poster at crochetville.org made a great John Deere tractor motif. If you did two of them (or even just one with fabric for the back), you could sew them together and stuff to make a pillow.You can find the post with pattern and link to a picture here:http://www.crochetville.org/forum/showthread.php?t=57945&hightlight
