Benefits of crochet

In addition to being an entertaining and fun activity, weaving - in all existing techniques - brings many physical, mental, and social benefits.

There are many studies on the positive health effects of crocheting but just ask any crocheter... Discover the benefits of knitting!

Crochet generates happiness, increases self-esteem, and the feeling of well-being, and its practice changes mood.

Like any creative activity, it feeds both the imagination and the artistic side, as well as the practical side and the notion of "work well done". That's why knit and crochet!

Learning and teaching crochet is linked to a state of calm, develops patience, and increases a sense of usefulness and inclusion in society.

Practicing knitting or crocheting reduces loneliness and isolation while strengthening personal relationships.

Sharing this hobby connects very different people both locally (like crochet gatherings in yarn shops, cafes, etc.) and globally.

Evidence-based research shows that knitting lowers blood pressure, slows senile dementia, helps prevent arthritis symptoms, and distracts from chronic pain.

Counting stitches, coordinating hands, passing the thread... stimulates the logical part of the brain and improves motor skills.

Regarding emotional and mental health, it suppresses states of stress, anxiety, and depression. Because, like activities like yoga, crochet promotes relaxation, concentration, and meditation.
