I have never knitted or crocheted and want to learn. I am one of those ppl that need instruction for idiots, and I am not kidding. So I am looking for the difference between the two. What I want to learn how to do is simple solid stitch. So if any one has an old book or a suggestion for any book please help. begging. I am home bound, make keepsake jewelry, and really want something else to do that Is not frivolous that can be a warm scarf or blanket, and if I get good a keepsake gift for my grandkids. lol. any help would appreciated when your done laughing. But I figure I might I might as well throw my hat in the ring and start some where. Daphne
