craftgrrl | crocheting vs knitting (Reply)

Alright, second question of the night.

I want to learn how to knit! Or do I?

I want to make fun funky things. Purses, hats (with cat ears, or ear flaps, etc), totes, maybe some mittens. And maybe I can even move onto making a tank top or halter or something.

So what would be the best to learn to do these kinds of things? Crochet or Knitting? A girl at work (I work at Michael's) said knitting looks better and she has a bias/preference for knitting.

Oh and either way, because I'm employee, I can take the classes for free. So there's no draw back for me to learn one or the other.
