[Nfb-krafters-korner] Hello there..

[Deasy Junaedi]

Hello everybody..
My name is Deasy and I am a new member.
I am 35 years old, female, low  vision of 5% sight remaining because
of retinitis pigmentosa.
 I lived in Indonesia. My parents are from etnic chinese who born and
live in Indonesia.
But I cannot speak chinese.
When my sight is still ok, i never do any handycraft, though I really
love handmade.But now, since my sight worsen, I really interested and
want to learn any handycraft.
I really excited when I found out this mailing list.
Perhaps any of you are willing too give me any instruction and teach
me how to start knitting, or any other handycraft for the newly blind?
Looking forward to hearing from u soon..

PS : I wonder is anybody who join this mailing list is already able or
familiar with the handycraft before got blind or not? I would love to
hear your story please..:)

cheers,
Deasy
