10 Things Only a Knitter (or Crocheter!) Will Understand

1. “One more skein doesn’t count.” It’s for future plans, obviously.
2. You have one WIP… and six more in your head. Plus one in your bag, two in a basket, and maybe one under the couch.
3. You see a sweater in a store and think: “I could totally make that.”
4. Normal scissors? No. Yarn scissors? Sacred. Touch them and risk your life.
5. Your phone is full of yarn, stitches, and project pics. Selfies? What are those?
6. Gauge swatch? Yeah… like doing warm-up stretches — you know you should, but…
7. “Just one more row before bed.” Suddenly it’s 2:43 AM, but hey — the sleeve is almost done!
8. Every fiber artist has a favorite yarn… and one they’ll never use again.
9. Sometimes, stitch patterns come to you in dreams. Your brain never stops crafting.
10. No one understands true pride like someone who’s just finished a handmade project.

Bonus points if someone says: “Wait — you made that?!”

Knitting and crochet aren’t just hobbies.

They’re a way of life — full of loops, love
