| Maroon hand warmers and hat, size small, youth |
I have been busy crocheting this fall, and I am in LOVE with this craft! I learned to crochet years ago from a gal I worked with in Ann Arbor at an Assisted Living home. Her name was Elena, and we worked in the lock down Alzheimer's unit together. Our female patients all used to know how to crochet or knit, but their dexterity and memory was so affected that they weren't able to craft anymore; but they sure loved to watch us crochet! So, Elena taught me and I started a project to make a blanket; I brought that blanket in each day I worked and the elderly ladies "oo'd and aah'd" over it each time. Even though the blanket was 7-8 feet long and only a few inches wide; what was I thinking? To this day, I never finished that blanket; it's about 4 feet wide now and makes a comfy dog bed :)
I stopped crocheting after college for several years, and started knitting for a period in between, but didn't love the knitting. Recently, I came back to crocheting and I am again 'hooked'! Crocheting offers a lot of variety, you can modify patterns easily, if you mess up it's easy to take out, and it's just so, so, so fun!
My current line of handmade goodies are crochet items that you can use for the outdoors; hand warmers, neck warmers, ear warmers, hats with ear flaps and many of the items are lined with ORGANIC BAMBOO FLEECE! One of my customers is quoted saying; "The fleece is so soft, I think this is what a cloud feels like."
Here are a few of the newest items, more to come! Message me if you are interested!
