1. The knitting and crocheting websites included in this iHCPL module were very good but one of my favorites is Lion Brand Yarn. If I had time to crochet for a purpose it would be to make blankets for nursing home patients.
2. Our branch has a sit and stitch group where you can bring any kind of knitting, crocheting, embroidery, cross stitch, etc, that you like. It is run by a patron volunteer.
