The Knitwit vs. the Chrochet...person

I like knitting. It's okay. I guess the pro's are that the work comes out smoother in some cases, there are some cool patterns like clover lace and such. But I can see that the con's outweigh the pro's; It's harder to make a gauge swatch. It's a lot harder to know how much your work is going to expand or contract just by looking at the cast-on stitches. It's a little harder to cast on. Which, I'll admit is a cheap shot. It's all squares or circles and "What the fuck else can I make that's not a fucking scarf?"

Chrochet...people? Well, they don't have a nifty nickname. And the number of stitches are a little harder to keep track of unless you do it right. But! It is so much easier to: look at something and figure it out, make a gauge swatch, learn all of the stitches and invent new ones, cast-on, know from casting on how big or small your work is actually going to be, freestyle, bind off, continue work on a preexisting item, chrochet around things, increase, decrease, and make something other than scarves!!!

I implore you reader, if you are on the fence about deciding between knitting and chrocheting, it's good to know both. Therefore there was no real point to all this. But, if you're trying to save time,  effort, brain matter, and money...CHROCHET ALL THE WAY. That rhymes btw.
