Hi BK,
Welcome to the group.
I learned to crochet when I was a kid, then dropped it after
diabetes-induced blindness in 1984. While in hospital during 2003, I felt
the strong urge to do something with my hands to keep me busy. A neighbor
brought me some crochet hooks and yarn, and I re-taught myself what I'd
forgotten.
I enjoy a few unrelated creative activities which include presently writing
plug-ins for an audio editor. (A plug-in is a small piece of software which
expands the functionality of a larger main program, and an audio editor can
be used to record, create and edit sound.)
I do enjoy the satisfaction of creating and finishing a project, whatever
the activity is. The activity which helps me experience increasing calm and
ease in my life (despite several diabetes-related complications) is using a
series of specific mental tools, which I've been using now for almost 20
years.
Thanks for your post and website - I just emailed someone at the Canadian
Diabetes Association about your knit diabetes socks.
Cheers
David Sky
Vancouver, Canada

Welcome, Busy knitter. I like the idea of your blog, and totally agree
that knitting helps with wellness. Many times it has kept me sane!
