Knitting and crochet is a craft which has been around for centuries. The earliest examples are thought to be 13th century Spanish cushions and Egyptian mediaeval fragments. These yarn crafts are extremely adaptable and can be used to produce a breadth of differing styles of materials and clothing. However, not only do these crafts allow us to produce creative garments and accessories, there is a large amount of research which shows it has health benefits mostly linked to mental health. Since mind and body are closely connected, the health benefits of knitting and crochet also extend to physical well-being.
