Knitting is fairly easy and can be self-taught. Crochet is a little more difficult because of the number of different stitches and techniques, but knitting produces a smoother-looking fabric.

She could find a lot of embroidery projects at the BX there, or even (especially?) on the economy.

I used to love counted cross stitch until my cataracts got too bad to see. I dealt with it until I couldn’t see to drive at night and finally decided to have surgery. Now, of course, I need the right eye lased, but I wonder if I’ll even finish my little frog bookmark! If I do, I’ll make sure you get it, one way or another.

Does anybody know why medieval courts had jesters (or fools)?

A book recommendation on the subject would be appreciated.
