I don't know what is better, crocheting or knitting.
Both have their pro's and con's.
With knitting you basically have the knit stitch and purl which is the foundation for lots of patterns plus your edges are always straight too.
With crocheting you have single, half-double, double, triple, etc stitches but you can make lots of things with just the single, half-double and double stitches.
With knitting however you are forced, pretty much, to knit at the very tips of your needles and it is WAY too easy to drop more than one stitch and the only way you can get it back is to somehow do soem twisty-twisty stuff to recover them as with crocheting you don't really 'drop' a stitch and it is easier to undo a few stitches then redo them if there is a mistake.
Also with crocheting you don't need long or circular needles when doing a huge project and if you do a chain of, say, 35, once the chain is made you don't have to worry much and you don't have to turn your needles around either, just do a chain or two at the end of your row, turn your work around and then go the other way.
Binding off in crocheting is easier than in knitting too and weaving in the ends can be done a few ways.
I don't know, both are kinda fun to do..
