Crochet is very relaxing to me, it is very therapeutic.\u00a0 I love it.\u00a0 If I am too tired to design jewelry, or fuse glass, I can still be creative and crochet.\u00a0 I will not use power tools or light a torch when I am tired, as that is a recipe for disaster, so I can pick up a crochet hook and be creative and also relax at the same time.\u00a0 The stress of a busy day, or week melts away.<\/strong><\/h3>\n

This will be a gift for someone special, so I am not telling you any more about it for now.\u00a0 You will see pics of it when it is finished.<\/strong><\/h3>\n
