A pleasure to look AND TO MAKE

As i look into my closet, i enjoy mu various knitted clothes, In fact
i can say IT IS A PLEASURE TO LOOK , at the things i made myself , as
well as others over the years. Was discussing something else with a
long time aquaintance , who complained that she was sooooooo bored, i
know she is a great reader like me, thus asked her why she didn`t do
some hand craft , she wondered which? carefully i suggested
knitting ??? knitting she said , old ladies knit!!!! Not wanting to
suggest that at 70 , she might be nearing that age, i suggested that
maybe those `old` ladies reached their Honorable old age because they
had the pleasurew of making and looking at their knitted work,,,, To
my great Joy there was an interview with RUTH DAYAN, in the Ma`ariv
weekend neswpaper. Ruth is 90, still drives herself around , and maybe
some of you remember that She patricipated Last year in out "The Magic
Wands " exhibition. In the interview she says that she knits dolls in
order not to sit idle by the TV ,,,
Thus Knitting is a pleasure by all means ,

Alas , Dennis , i didn`t convince her , she still thinks it will make
her look OLD ,,, Never mind all the Young people now knitting ,,,,,
Maybe she just enjoys her complaning too much ,,,
The 90 year old Lady Ruth Dayan has it right ,, She knits dolls for
all her great grand kids , she looks great and it keeps hands and mind
in shape ,,,,

Mirjam,

How true, I have severe never damage in my neck form working on the
rail road section gang. It pithes the nerves that goes to my arms. I
have severe atrophy in my right hand. The neurologist told me to never
quit knitting and crocheting, he said my hobby was a savior to me.
Please pass this on to you friend.

Knit and crochet for ever,
Dennis & Gail
