I love adorable accessories and clothing, and I love to have unique style. Crochet appeals to me because (a) I enjoy the challenge of making my ideas reality, and (b) ultimately I end up having something adorable and totally unique. I prefer to embellish on patterns (or create my own) because (a) usually I have to in order to get the desired finished product, and (b) then my project is entirely unique. Plus, crochet is less popular and trendy than knitting, and more challenging because there are less options for patterns.I guess you could say I do not enjoy crocheting for the sake of crocheting. I don't feel relaxed or anything. In fact, I am a very impatient person, and often I feel quite anxious (knots & losing count and all that).
I wonder if anyone out there reading this loves crochet??? I would love to know if you do and why!

I love to crochet - I find it quick and easy, and more flexible for patterns as apposed to knitting.
I find crocheting to be very relaxing. Very often, like you, I modify a pattern to look the way *I* want it to look, and in order to do that, I pull apart many projects and start over.
But, in how many real life situations can you totally undo something and start over without losing any resources besides time?
The only times I haven't really enjoyed crocheting is when I've promise someone something with a deadline.
"We're having a fund-raiser in two weeks! Can you whip together an afghan we can auction off?"
"Sure!"
(I'm so stupid.)
