<p class="MsoNormal">thanks Deb.<o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">i did notice i love to craft as a kind of therapy but also when i feel great it is something i do as more than just a hobby. it is my creative gift and it is fulfilling to create things for others or myself to enjoy.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">learning to loom knit gave me a great way to make useful items for others. i love to make socks, scarves, hats, mittens, and even washcloths. i am going to try a scarf for my end tables.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">but first i need to decide what i want for curtains in the living room so i can match it. i have a good fabric supplier on ebay so it is just a matter of choosing from all os the cuteness. i am looking at something with woodland animals
on it.<o:p></o:p></p>

color to make a scarf for my brother in law but could never find it in any stores and i finally found it in the quantity i need and all from the same dye lot. <o:p></o:p></p>

this difficult time and wanted to give this as a gift at christmas. so now i have the yarn and will start making the scarf.<o:p></o:p></p>
