[Nfb-krafters-korner] help, please

[Linda]

She is an amputee.  I don't want to try too many things after she was unsuccessful with the project we tried yesterday.  I learn every day.  Yesterday I learned to always have an alternative method of teaching a craft.  I really did not enjoy watching her disappointment and feeling of failure.  
I do appreciate all the help I am receiving.
Linda

Hi,
Here's a trick question for you.
Could she use her feet?
She could use the good hand to hold the yarn, then use her feet to make the loops.
