Since I regained some of the use of my fingers, I've been wild for all types of hand work. Most recently -- Crochet!
I'm trying to expand the color of my wardrobe and chose blackberry Gloss Fingering Yarn. To keep my dodgy fingers happy, I am using a cushioned crochet hook.
I haven't crocheted in decades so it took a time or two to get the pattern figured out, but once I got the first few rows done, I found it was easy to stitch and I'll be able to travel with this without carrying the pattern with me. I hope to finish this to wear on my quilting cruise in April. I have great shoes to wear with it, but haven't chosen the right dress yet.
I am making a Summer Solstice Stole!

I've picked up crochet again, too. I find that I can do it while watching TV at night with my hubby. He likes to watch TV, I don't. But he likes me to sit with him. So crochet gives me a way to make us both happy.
