[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Dexterity improvement through crafts?

[Dorothea Martin]

Hello,
I wonder if Hobby Lobby has a hobbyist's potter's wheel. If so, you 
might start with clay again and then move to crocheting or knitting. Do 
you have enough vision to see your craftwork or do you do it by touch? 
I ask this question because it may well make a difference in the craft 
tools that will work out for you. For instance, Joann's is having a big 
sale right now and they have crochet hooks with thick, padded, spongey 
hand grips which would not be useful at all for a crocheter who works 
entirely by touch. Our fingers have to be at the business end of the 
hook, while someone who uses some vision might well be glad of the 
comfortable handle. Also, there are lighted knitting needles for those 
who might benefit from them. Keep in touch and we'll explore together.
