I am currently power crocheting a baby afghan to the point of getting callouses since a friend who is not due for over a month is on bedrest and threatening to go early. I told her I find that very inconsiderate of her.

my Lithuanian grandma taught me to crochet but i haven't tried that in probably 30 years! it is very soothing and your eyes don't have to be as good. i may need to go back to that in a few years!

LOL!!!

To this day jax's favorite 'blankie" is the afghan I made while I was pregnant.

I drove my friends and business associates nuts with my crocheting - I never left home without it. I would be attending a political fundraiser and there I was with my crocheting in my lap - I wasn't drinking and those things are so booooooring!!!!!!!!!

I used to crochet. USAF doctor prescribed it to teach me how to control my stress induced HBP at 20 years of age. After about 5 afghans which took me about 2 days (embellishing on the time) I learned how to focus when I was getting angry and keep the old BP in check. I no longer crochet because I can focus without it.
