Dannielle asked:


I am trying to make a scarf with yarn and was thinking about either crochet or knitting. Is there another method that may be easier?

The old days anything was used for needles so id say yes but they would be terribly difficult due to length and no end to stop the stitches from dropping have fun.
Crochet is easier at first simply because you have fun.

Crochetting is much easier to learn, and it goes quick once you get the hang of it.

If you keep at it you could easily make a scarf in 2 days.

I think it depends on who is around to teach you! Is there another way? Sure! You could learn to weave! I think that’s easier than both, actually. Though I’ve only tried tabletweaving. Inkle weaving looks pretty easy though. I can provide you with tablet weaving info if you like, just email me.
