    About

    I took up knitting and crochet again, after a break of many years, when my mum developed Alzheimer's. It was the one thing that concentrated my mind away from how sad I was feeling. Mum was in a home for six years. I visited her regularly and often took a current craft project with me; sometimes I was able to tell her what I was making and she would have a feel of the yarn. Maybe it reminded her of her knitting days. Who knows? Sad times continued with my dad developing Parkinson's and going into a different home. Visiting both was hard going, especially mentally; knitting diverted my thoughts away from the sadness. They have both passed away within the last eighteen months. During that time I was off work for six weeks following surgery. I managed to complete a little of my entrelac scarf each day, finishing it just before returning to work. Now, I always have a project on the go, always remembering how the process of creating something new, will take my mind somewhere brighter.
