Do you crochet every day?

[Elizabeth K]

Yes, I crochet every day. I started in my early 20's, then got sidetracked by life when I became a single mother. I crocheted a few things during those years for gifts, but picked up my hooks in earnest a few years ago when I joined a Prayer Shawl Ministry. What a blessing that has been. I am not one to sit idly so had to have something to be doing all the time. Now that I'm crocheting I will sit and my body gets rest while I work away with my hooks. I carry it with me everywhere I go, I crochet in the car, on an airplane, on my work lunch break -- pretty much anywhere I can sit and rest.

I crochet every day. If I don't the arthritis in my hands acts up. I take my crochet with me whenever I think I will be waiting somewhere. I crochet in the evening while watching TV. I usually have at least 3 project going so I can choose what to work on. I have been surprised that they let me take even a metal crochet hook on an airplane.
I think about crocheting all day! Thinking of new patterns and combinations.

I am so glad to hear the crochet helps your arthritis. Did I understand that right? I can't believe the TSA let you take a metal hook on a plane !!!!!

Hi Claire S,

I am surprised they let you take a metal hook on the airplane. I once took a plastic hook, just so I could crochet! They didn't bother me about it. I love the granny square in your Avatar!! Would you be willing to share your pattern?

I will crochet everyday for a couple of months or more. Like I started last October and I made a baby outfit and then things for my granddaughter (16). she wore what I made to school and then her friends and others in the school wanted me to make stuff so I did. I stopped crocheting around the end of March. But, tomorrow I'm picking up the hook again to make a beach coverall, baby sandals, and wash cloths.

I crochet either every day or every other day. I am still fairly new at crocheting and I want to remember what I have learned.

I am sorry you lost your job. Somehow you will get through this time. My hope for you is you and your loved ones will have open communciation and love to give one another. Not speaking about problems can be the worst thing that can happen.

Best wishes,

Cathy
