Yarn is so inefficient... It takes 79 hours to make this, and nobody will pay 79 hours worth of work for this. My mom is really good at this, but unfortunately it's not a good business, it's more for making cool stuff for personal use, friends, and family.

A machine could make this exact thing in minutes or seconds. It's as efficient as gardening, which is to say not efficient. It's great for a hobby, for passing the time, and for gifts.

Machines can knit, but they can’t crochet. Crochet is three dimensional and the hand movement required are too complex for machines.
