More reasons to take up one of these hobbies!
Improves Math Skills
I wish someone would have told me about this when I was in school! Crocheting is a much more enjoyable way to practice math! With all the counting, rows, repeats, and patterns, both knitting and crocheting actually require a great deal of math to finish any given project. While most of this stuff is done subconsciously, the effect is the same stronger math skills!
Calms Anxiety
