Needle Arts for Sanity
When I think of her today, this is how I pray for her–that she will find joy and see the light where I believe she often sees only boredom and struggle.

She smiled a lot, but she could turn furious on a dime and go cold at the strangest things.

If I have a long project I’m working on, I knit or crochet in front of the TV or listening to an audiobook. Two years ago, I did a Friday film review series. I want to reprise that, adding a quick pattern with each review. What do you watch when you have a lot of crocheting or knitting to do?
