I love the whole Crochenit idea. I do both knitting and crocheting. I like the look of knitting, but I prefer crocheting. This crochenit book is great, shows you stitches that look much like knitting, but using a double ended crochet hook. This book only shows you how to do different stitches, only two actual patterns (hat and hooded blanket). But if you can make your own patterns or only doing scarfs or afghans, this book is all you need. I found the hooks at JoAnns, they are called circular crochet hooks, or double ended crochet hooks for smaller projects.
