I have always admired hand crochet and knit work, but my multiple attempts at knitting never got very far. I recently started one of Craftsy's classes, the "Crochet Lab", and I think this is finally sticking!!
Best yet, crochet, unlike knitting, doesn't seem to aggravate my wrists and hands. I plan to take it easy, but I'm thrilled to finally have found something to do with my hands while I watch TV, or wait for kids in school parking lots or dentist offices!
A knitter friend of mine recently told me about Portuguese Knitting, which is supposed to be gentler on your wrists and hands. I may have to give that a try too. Has anyone here ever tried it?
I hope all of you had a great Thanksgiving, and are enjoying the season!
can see you have the crochet bug, like you I find knitting not Portuguese knitting will see what google comes up with
ReplyDeleteHow is it that anyone has extra time? Oh, wait... I waste plenty of time too... doing nothing important. Maybe I should take up making dish clothes! Hope you had a nice Thanksgiving too. Me I am lamenting a cold that DDIL brought to share. I will look up Portuguese knitting... it might be what my grandmother referred to as 'knitting the Italian way'.
