CROCHECTING IS VERY THERAPUTIC. I HAVE NOT CROCHETED IN OVER 25 YEARS SINCE MY DAUGHTER WAS ON THE WAY AND ARRIVED.
I AM CROCHETING AGAIN BECAUSE SHE HAS ADORNED ME WITH A GRANDSON (10 DAYS OLD). I MADE HIM 3 BLANKETS AND I AM CURRENTLY MAKING ANOTHER FOR WHEN HE GETS BIGGER.
PS: I HAVE HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE AND WHEN I VISITED MY DOCTOR ON TWO OCCASIONS…. I DID NOT TAKE MY PILLS YET ABD SHE TOLD ME MY BLOOD PRESSURE IS NORMAL. I CAN’T TELL THE LAST TIME I WAS TOLD I HAD NORMAL BLOOD PRSSURE.
CROCHET AND KEEP THE BLOOD PRESSURE DOWN 🙂
