Haven't Stopped Crocheting

 When the quarantine hit this spring, all of the volunteers at the local hospital were put on hold. That included me and my prayer shawls. Since no one was doing visits for hospice care, they didn't need my handiwork. 

Somehow that didn't deter me from keeping up with my crocheting. I can't just sit and watch TV. I have to do something with my hands.

I've come up with a plan for this stack of prayer shawls and lap robes. It involves Christmas. I'm betting that most of them will be going to hospice people by the end of the year. Plan to be laid out in a later blog. Right now, it is not for public consumption.


I have a few more to make and then my plan will come together.

The hospital sent me a letter which arrived just yesterday saying that volunteers are welcome to come back. They don't have to if they don't want to just yet. 

Everything may have changed, but my hobby hasn't.

Here are a couple of afghans that I made as gifts for those I love.





Thanks for visiting with me.

Change of Plans

 



I see where at the beginning of the year I said that I meant to do more writing. It has plagued me that I haven't come up with ideas that I really wanted to talk about. The virus changed the interpretation of things I wanted to say - so I didn't say them. 

In any event, I got a smartphone at the beginning of the quarantine and have been making videos ever since and posting them to youtube. I feel like I'm able to "teach" again and that feeds my soul. 

If you would like to see my face or hear my voice, you can check out the videos here: https://studio.youtube.com/channel/UClxRmmRfHJjUk2YFPDLl6iw/videos/upload?filter=%5B%5D&sort=%7B%22columnType%22%3A%22date%22%2C%22sortOrder%22%3A%22DESCENDING%22%7D

Or you can go to youtube and type in "Kathi Linz".

Thank you for visiting with me. Stay well and stay safe.
