thank you! I can't knit - I mean at ALL. I tried to learn, but the yarn just kept falling off the needles! i need the hook in the crochet hook to help me keep the yarn under control haha. My grandma taught me to crochet when I was a kid. She is the only person who had enough patience in order to teach me. And she even taught me to rip out my work if I find a mistake, no matter how far back - I used to cry and get mad at her when she'd make me rip stuff out but I'm glad she did.
Another thing I wish I could do but can't is sew - like, clothes. My sister on the other hand could be a professional tailor - she makes tailored pants for her twin sister, and she has also designed/made stoles for my brother (the minister) to wear over his preacher robe. The stoles are just beautiful creations - one of them is designed like a stained glass window. I have zero patience, skill, or creative talent when it comes to sewing! It's like all of my 'making things' talent went for crochet and that's it!
