Cross-stich as a technique is super simple but its very time-consuming and requires a lot of attention to detail. I find it very relaxing to give my brain a rest from spinning thoughts but lots of people don't enjoy that.
Also with Etsy, facebook groups and so on there are a lot of ways to get to cool patterns - no more old-fashioned boring flower stitching.
I sit at computers all day so I enjoy all types of crafting a lot - its so satisfying to actually produce a physical product.
