Sometimes a thought enters my mind that I just have to try. I’ve seen hundreds of people “arm knitting” during the last few months and it reminded me of the “finger crocheting” I did when I was young. My brother and I would sit for hours and “crochet” chains and pull them back out. It was a great way of increasing manual dexterity and keeping a young child busy. It never dawned on me when I was six that I could do anything with the chains. Now that I’m older, I can think of all kinds of things to do with them! I thought I might be able to put this to use with my idea for a scarf/cowl and a six year old desperate to do something to fight boredom while on a school break.
