My mother tried several times to teach me, but I knit so tightly that we always had to cut the needles out a few rows in. I really admire those you can! I did teach myself to crochet. People would watch me and laugh. I learned from pictures in a book, so I crochet left handed (mirror image) and move the yarn and hold the hook still (like the pictures LOL). <br />I pray that peace will come to those brave souls in Ukraine and that the Russia people will rise up and put an end to this horror.

Will need to make note of that and check other locations, as we hopefully begin to be able to travel abroad again with Covid more in control. I had never known about camps in Cuba either and it came as quite a surprise how large, how well hidden the information regarding them were.

It may be a peaceful kind of therapy,sometimes I can't sit without doing anything too long, I like to take walks and pictures but the weather isn't always too friendly. The book looks interesting , I enjoy non fiction and learning about people and the things they lived through. There's a lot of wisdom to gain in history. So sad about all that is going on in Ukraine, my dad was in service during war time, the Korean war. So glad his life was protected, so many lost lives, God bless and protect those innocents in the wars and give us all wisdomCheryl’s Sunlit Pathwayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02131989781119023290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21367476.post-73127352791987359692022-03-18T09:21:52.776-04:002022-03-18T09:21:52.776-04:00It's knitted rather than crocheted.
