I'm not ignoring all my DD friends. I am reading. I just can't take time to leave comments if I'm going to get caught up while this thing decides to work.
The weather has been nice enough to go out without a sweater. It'll rain again tomorrow, but the weatherman says only tomorrow. Well...we'll see. Tomorrow is the monthly Leisure League luncheon, and of course I expect to be driving in the rain.
I happened in the synagogue office while the rabbi's wife was there. She saw the bag I just finished crocheting, and liked it. She's the director of the summer camp at the shul, and she asked me if I'd consider teaching crocheting during the camp. I said sure!
Each year the kids have a "project" for that year's camp, and I'm going to suggest a wall hanging. If the kids are interested, I'll teach them to make granny squares, and we'll sew them all together at the end of camp and hang it in the activity room. I have to give this more thought as to how we'll do this, and hope enough kids (INCLUDING boys) are interested.
Some of you may know about Rosey Grier. A very large, and very popular football player of a few years back. He did needlepoint, and some beautiful work he did. It's hard to imagine those huge hands threading a tapestry needle and doing that delicate stitchery. I'm going to use that as propaganda to entice the boys to try crocheting. If that big macho football hero can do needlepoint, then pre-teen boys could certainly do crochet work.
Couldn't they?
I wonder if someplace, some search engine in cyberspace, would have pictures of his work.
Well, I see I have some planning to do.
Shalom
