Knitting helps me to take the focus off of my painful arthritic hands. It gives me a center and balance to my body and mind. Thank you for your wonderful video, it is right on!
I learned to crochet in college 3 years ago. I started teaching classes last year. I cannot knit or crochet anymore because I over stressed my hands because I love it so much. It makes me sad watching this video, because I want to pick up my hooks again but my hands lock up

@Lisa Conaway Thanks so much. We sure do. That's a focus for me as I embark on a graduate degree. Our contribution to these crafts.
I have been a counselor for over forty years and crocheting for over twenty and I completely agree that it is therapeutic.
We'd appreciate you sharing your counseling experiences and insights at our web site:www.craftyarncouncil.com/health
