Knitting is gaining popularity as a hobby among people in their 20s and 30s. Learning patterns from YouTube or Instagram and participating in gatherings through online communities such as Danggeun has become commonplace. Knitting offers the advantage of feeling a sense of accomplishment and mental peace in the process of slowly creating results by weaving yarn line by line. Experts analyze this trend as a movement of the younger generation seeking to combine self-expression and consumption through analog activities, escaping fatigue from the digital environment. Knitting is interpreted as reflecting the desire to find leisure and healing by stepping away from the digital age, extending the 'Halmae-ni' culture.
