Melissa, that would be something I'd love to be able to do, looming while
reading, but think that's going to be while off, I have so many dropped
stitches in normal knitting, but hoping it won't be the same with looming.
Maybe one day I'll get good enough to loom as you are doing, a nice dream at
the moment grin. Valerie

Ashley.
Welcome to the list.
You will get lots of ideas for crafts.
there are also chats, and both e-mail and phone classes.

I am also job hunting.
I do loom knitting while I am watching tv, or reading a book.
Ask all of your questions.
You will get an answer from someone.
Good luck.
Enjoy the list.
Blessings and best wishes,
Melissa R. Green and Pj

Hi all,

My name Is Ashley and I am not new to nfb, but new to the list.
I am a young adult who is job exploring and willing to take most entry level

job I am qualified for although my interests lie in communications, event 
coordination, and outreach but I'm fine being a clerical assistant for now.

My interests include reading, writing, bible study, card games, and bowling.
I also enjoy working out. I'm looking for a craft to try and thought I'd 
join this list for a bit to gain ideas.

I have had some craft exposure through public school and various camps, for 
the blind or not.
I had to stitch a small pillow together while at some girl baptist camp. I'm

not baptist, but went because they were encouraging vision impaired people 
to come and they would provide guides.
I've also worked with a small loom to make a hat at our state center. I've 
worked with clay making various things but mainly I made pinch bowls and 
painted them after they were fired.
At school we did a little work with beads and weaving.

I am considering taking a class at a community center in beading, other 
jewelry making, knitting or pottery.
I could not do pottery at home though as we do not have a kilm. So maybe 
jewelry or weaving or knitting would be more realistic.

I want to find a new hobby. I'm not sure I have the patience for the tedious

task ofknitting or crocheting. but worth trying it.
Crafts often take concentration and time. While I am willing to devote some 
time, I do not have hours to do something, and I think it takes hours to 
knit or crochet.

Anyway, that  is some about me and I have lots of questions.

Ashley
