CROCHET AS EXERCISE??

by 3 Comments

Does crochet count as exercise?  If I carry huge bags of yarn to and from the car, is it weight lifting?  If I crochet all night, is it endurance training?  If I crochet AND knit, it is cross training?

Ok…. I’m being a bit silly. But, look what you get when you google crochet with some exercise terms.  Makes me wonder!

Of course, every exerciser needs a water bottle handy.  Check these out:

Even the ‘fancier’ sports like horseback riding might need these crocheted accessories (altho’ they sure look knitted to me.  What do you think??):
