Arthritis Relief
Here are some
tips for crocheters who
suffer from
arthritis:
Dont try to crochet very early in
the morning or very late at night,
since arthritis pain and stiffness is
more severe at these times.
Soak your hands in warm water
before and after crocheting. This
will help soothe the inflammation
and relieve tension.
A gentle massage, with or without
one of the good topical pain relief
ointments on the market, will help.
Be sure you use a non-greasy formula, so you wont defeat your purpose by having to work harder to
control your yarn with sticky hands.
Choose a comfortable spot to
crochet. If your body is relaxed,
your hands will be less apt to
cramp. Dont crochet for lengthy
periods. Take a break now and then
to stretch and move, and flex your
Baby Gifts
Wrap baby gifts in receiving blankets instead of wrapping paper.
Ponytail Elastics
Use the coated ponytail elastics
(smaller size) as a base for skirts,
dresses, shorts, etc. The elastics
are just the waist size needed and
will save you the time of sewing
together regular round elastic.
They come in many colors so you
can color-coordinate them to your
yarn or thread.
Decorative Doilies
When you decorate your home for
the Christmas holidays, dont overlook the possibilities of crocheted
doilies. Cluster five or six small
red, white and green doilies in a
pretty group on the dining room or
kitchen table. Add a round bowl
of greenery and holiday-colored
flowers for a unique centerpiece.
Sweet-Smelling Afghans
When packing away crocheted
baby afghans for later use as gifts,
place a sheet of dryer fabric softener in with the afghan. It will
smell fresh when opened weeks or
months later.
