Never too old to learn something new

I'm trying to teach my friend how to crochet. I'm hoping this new hook with the bigger handle makes it a little easier.

agree

Nice! You can do so many fun things with crochet! And a big plus is that with only knowing a few basic you can make a masterpiece!

Your POV brings attention to the hands.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

That's great! I like the close-up of the hands- it really draws attention to the challenge of learning how to make the needles work.

FAV I love the close crop of this one

Nice shot of your friend's hands as she learns to manipulate the hook and yarn. I've found, as the arthritis in my hands rears its ugly head from time to time, that holding the hook and the body of the project causes my thumb joint (where it joins to the hand) to cramp.

@randystreat I have not had that problem with crocheting, yet, but hand sewing really makes my hands hurt.

That tells such a nice story. I hope your friend is enjoying her new past-time. :)

My fingers just get to achy for crochet or knitting. Good to learn new skills
