[Nfb-krafters-korner] to knit or to crochet

[Blindhands at aol.com]

I am sitting here with a big grin on my face about hands hurting  
crocheting.  For those who have been knitting and for those who have been  
crocheting, you all don't realize the little difference in positioning  of  your 
fingers, hands and pressure on those parts that you haven't been  using.  I also 
believe if you are like me when you are trying something new  I tend to 
tighten up and not just relax.  
 
For those of you who knit and throw your yarn[not across the room], but to  
lift it over your knitting needle, crocheting has that kinda motion with 
your  hand, too.  
 
I don't think Kathy got into much of the hand motions last week with  
crocheting.  I am not sure since I was popping in and out of  listening.
 
It is learning something new and having the opportunity to give it a  try.
 
That is what Krafters Korner is all about!  Nothing ventured, nothing  
gained.
