Kalhan Rosenblatt explains how this TikTok trend was fueled by the pandemic lockdown and signals at a growing importance to preserve mental wellbeing.

I think this is fabulous. Some helping charities knitting blankets for the homeless…I say God Bless all of them. Great work!!
Not to mention a lot of the club/nightlife scene is toxic, expensive, and dangerous with all the shootings happening.
Embroidery, knitting and crocheting has been my favorite pastimes for years now. People want to go back to a simpler time.
Netflix and crocheting?
Quilting too!
"I demand comfort and crochet."
I see a lot of people crochet these days.
Old person hobbies???
Those are basic life skills…
An hour out of your day to de-stress does not hurt tho…
With the number of bots on social media, it is impossible to tell if this is true, or fabricated.
Odd that msm doesn't understand this.

It helps to also battle depression and anxiety. It’s a healthy mental switch from computers.
Time spent on your phone will NEVER be a memory in later life… 📱
Sad.
Sassy broadcasters! These activities are keeping young and old SANE!
