What an anxious-sounding person, to be made so uncomfortable by such pedantic things 🙄

both are excellent choices for literally exactly that. Crochet (and knitting) especially are exceptionally good for getting into a flow state

i mean it sounds like you have the motivation for it, and the time is less than you think! you can find super clear walkthrough videos on YouTube showing how to do suuuuper basic small projects like coasters or something as a start, all using only one type of stitch

#Knitsky i need some advice! I am still a novice knitter but am not a novice when it comes to overpurchasing pretty yarns 🫠 I want some suggestions on good projects for colorful twined yarns like this that showcase its chunky coloring without turning it visually into a muddled mess. TIA❤️

maybe it would look more striking as an accent contrasted against solid colors, so the eye can rest between the busy-ness 🤔
