whats the benefits of knitting?

Answer 1

Knitting gets your creative juices flowing and it helps you relax at the same time. It is therapeutic because you really can't think of anything else when you are knitting. Once you finish something easy, you will want to do something else. I like to crochet as well which I find easier than knitting. You have to find a craft that you enjoy doing otherwise, why bother? If you don't try it, than you will never know. Just experiment with something small, like a scarf and first thing you know , you will be hooked (pun intended)

Answer 2

I love knitting, it's something I do to relax. My doctor said I needed to start taking some me time to get my blood pressure down and I started knitting again. It's also been helpful with the stiffness I have in my hand due to having broken the wrist several years ago. To top it all off, you have something that you made as a result.
