Some Benefits of Crochet

"People are always good company when they are doing what they enjoy." 

~Samuel Baker

1. Crochet keeps your stress level way down by keeping your hands and your heart busy.

2. Crocheting for charity helps others, and helping others helps you.

3. Crochet makes watching TV seem less of a waste of time; after all, you’re using that time to make something useful.

4. Crochet travels well. Bring little projects or granny squares with you on SEPTA, on road trips, waiting at the doctor’s office, waiting in the airport, waiting wherever.

5. Keep expenses down with gifts you make with your own two hands--- hand-made with love!

6. Okay, this may be silly, but if you get angry with your spouse or friends or kids, you can get rid of the anger by just throwing some yarn around. It won’t break anything or hurt anyone, but they’ll sure know you’re mad!

7. Playing with yarn is like playing with crayons! Look at all the colors! Oooh, pretty!

 

 

If I can stop one heart from breaking,

I shall not live in vain.

If I can ease one life from aching,

Or cool one pain,

Or help one fainting robin

Into his nest again,
I shall not live in vain. ---Emily Dickinson
