I do knitting and crochet on a regular basis.  Those two are my favs.  I also needlepoint, cross stitch and sew (although that has been put on the wayside until I get a new machine.)  I also embroider a little and would love to get a machine that does that for me.

i've always wanted to learn how to knit...so many things to do with it...but it's looks hard and scares me so i've never took the time to try...plus supplies are not expensive.... i'm all about that!

One of the best places I know for help about knitting is KnittingHelp.com.  It has how-to videos.  There are also many books available at amazon.com.
