Crocheting and Knitting--They're Not The Same!

One of my (I admit many) pet peeves is the fact that people keep referring to "kippot srugot," crocheted kippot (skullcaps) as "knitted."

In Hebrew it's the same word for both, לסרוג, lisrog, but in English there are two words for the different actions, knitting and crocheting. I found this informative post explaining much better than I would.

Is it clear now?
