    Crocheting has too many benefits we would be here all year discussing this lol im so glad I found out about it during my time in this homeless shelter. I be forgetting im even inn here. There could be arguemnts going on or something stressful arising and here I am crocheting lol in the zone Also crocheting keeps me from doing bad habits like I could do it alll day long and skip eating skip ruminating on things that would never happen also it keeps me sane . I really believe its going to continue to take off more and more inn these next years I mean even men are doing it and those in incarceration systems iit helps you feel like youre apart of something and useful even God said that he knitted us in our mothers womb. ITS SO amazing this has healing propertiess someone in pain could probably use this to replace hardcore meds

      Hi there! Yes, crocheting does have so many benefits indeed. I'm glad that it's helped you in your situation. I'm so sorry to hear about you being in a homeless shelter. I looked at some of the videos that you made on your channel and it really hurts my heart that you and others are in that situation.💔 I'm praying that the Lord will help you and everyone with whatever you need to get out of your homeless situation.💞

    I am struggling with addiction I have been sober for 4 years and this is what I do to keep me occupied with my fidgeting fingers. And I learned it 50 years ago maybe I made three or four things over that period of time but now I can't stop I love the new yarns and I love to crochet. What's old is New again. I am left-handed and I appreciate watching you crochet left-handed however 50 years ago for me the only people teaching were right-handed and I do crochet right-handed. My left hand controls tension and it works out okay for me. Thank you for your wisdom and sharing it.

      I was working on a daisy granny square blanket for my best friend who found out she had stage 4 cancer back in June or July last year. She died November 30th. I folded it up gently and put it away. It hurts too much to take it back out. Daisies were one of her favorite flowers. I could work on something else, I suppose. But I guess I'm not ready yet.🥹😪

      What sort of items are you making? I presume you make lots for gifts as well and of course for yourself. I, too crochet, it seems for everyone else except me. I must change that. Not sure what I'd like to make. Something useful. I also sew alot too, that is relaxing also. Seeing your progress, what you have made whether that be crochet, knit, sewing, quilting, counted cross stitch, or my new recent addition since covid is rock painting. I paint lady bugs and bumble bees now I have expanded to turtles. This is for my perennial garden for decoration along with spiritual rock painting. Have a Blessed day everyone.
