Thank you


For everyone who helped out with my crochet question last week - thank you.

I passed on all your suggestions. Ron was thrilled and excited that people all over the world thought his crochet could be transformed. Trudi's scarf suggestion was a big hit as was Janet's bowl idea. The house has a regular craft group so they are planning a session around the chain. I have to admit, I'm with Kai - I think it's great that he takes joy in the process with no particular goal.

He made this card in craft group as a thank you.

I like the idea of a guy covered in crochet, too. It's an image I will carry with me for awhile. I have tried to get my craft group at work to make crocheted chemo caps but they lose interest too quickly. Mental illness takes away your focus. I am working on the staff, though, and have enticed two folks into knitting socks. Whoot!

Well, then, Happy Birthday (unless Jejune is "having a lend" and seeing how many will follow her request without question.
