Attitude of Gratitude Day 13 – A Talent

Crocheting and Knitting

Journaling reads:  I began knitting and crocheting as a teenager.  I learned on my own.  My mom was an avid crocheter, especially when the grandkids started coming along!  She made them stuffed animals one Christmas.  I knitted my mother-in-law-to-be an early American flag for Christmas one year since she was a patriotic buff.  To say I was trying to earn some brownie points would be an understatement!  ;)

I have made things for my grandkids, too!  I especially like making the small project like bears, doll clothes, hats, scarves, mittens, leg-warmers, etc.  I have knitted blankets and afghans, too, but I don’t like doing them much because I get bored with the project before I get it finished usually!

I’m working on a crocheted bucket hat now.  I’m finding that my finger joints are liking my crafting less and less, so I am crocheting some and then taking a break.  Thank You, Lord, for the ability to work with my hands!  11/13/22
