October 30, 2023 – What to do with all these critters (craft therapy)

My friend Janine sent me a request to see if I could crochet a bat. Of course I had to try. Now I’m crocheting all kinds of critters and amigurami. I absolutely love it…and I love my friend for challenging me. Here are some of my critters.

Rough week? Find something that will feed your happiness. After a few rough days, I picked up a project I had started working on before Hurricane Ian. Crocheting is relaxing to me and keeps me from smacking people. Today I finished two of these sea turtles.

Find your bliss.
