Now anyone can knit with the Knook!
What is knooking? Knooking is the new knitting. The "Knook" is a specialized crochet hook with a crochet hook on one end and an eye at the non-hook end. A cord is threaded through the eye on the non-hook end. The cord holds the stitch while you create a knitted fabric. When knooking, you are actually making knit and purl stitches.
Knook is a cross between crochet and knitting. Knooking can help a crocheter to transition to knitting by making stitches similar to knit stitches. A knitter can learn more about crocheting and this can help them transition to crochet.
