Do I really want to learn to knit?

So, I've been trying to learn, I know it's hard at first, everything
is, right? Well, everything worth while...
However, I have decided that maybe I don't need to know. Ok, so I
guess that isn't deciding, if I say maybe... It's just really hard. At
this point I don't see the draw to it. I mean, sweaters ans socks? But
I found a few patterns for socks for crochet. Don't know how to do
thos patterns yet, need to learn to read a pattern, need to make sure
I can do those stitches, but wouldn't it be easier to carry on with
what I already know? Basically, at this point, I can't even remember
why I wanted to learn other than the fact that one of my nurses
brought in a catalog and I got all excited at the neat-o stuff! I need
to slow my roll about these things!
Anyhow, one of the books went back, the one that taught you how to
make your own patterns...a little premature, right?! And the other
book is no help...I'm beyond help for dummies! The DVD, while I
appreciate my daughter finding it, after watching, rewinding,
rewatching, re-rewinding, watching in slow motion...I still can't get
the knit stitch! I only got the cast on, because my grrrl got it, and
she showed me. That's how I got the crochet too...
So, this is where it stands...I know how to cast on, so, I may attempt
to continue to learn, maybe from YouTube or from that nurse that my
gurdle in a bunch...but for now, it's crochet for me!
