@morgoodie Perhaps as your sister said, it’s a fashion statement, but not only a necessity anymore. It’s good that she can make good sales from her stand. I like slouch hats, they look nice. I did knit or crochet hats for my children, they do not really wear them, but just wear for fun when they are playing at home.
I would like to sell my…[Read more]

My sister does a lot of crocheting and sells it. She lives in Miami, Florida and it is quite hot there but she makes hats like skull caps and some slouch hats and people buy them up. She has a stand that she uses to sell from and she is always out of hats. You would not think that with the heat they would want to wear hats, but she says it is a…[Read more]

@grecy095 Cross stitching and hand sewing certainly count! I haven’t really get used to machine sewing yet, so I still prefer hand sewing. I am actually always doing these handwork (knitting, crocheting or hand sewing) while I am watching some webinars with my computer or reading articles at the same time. I guess it’d be nice to do these while…[Read more]

I was reading the replies of the members and I was like, what? handwork? what is that?

I never thought there are lots of people who…[Read more]

I did not do a lot of handiwork as a child, because I was told I was not artistic, or that anything I did looked bad. I am exploring art in many forms nowadays, though I still am a bit gun-shy about it. I have started to crocheting again. I know how to knit but haven’t like it much. I also love to make jewelry, especially earrings and rosary…[Read more]

@morgoodie It’s so nice of your mom! I always think it’s something good for the mothers to teach the children and do together with the children. Your childhood life must be really wonderful with all these handwork activities. My mom was a tailor and she was working at home and sewing the clothes or shoes for others, but none of us learned how to…[Read more]
As a child, my mother taught me how to knit, crochet, hand sew, machine sew, cross stitch, and paint on pillow cases. I also know how to macrame although I would need a refresher to do it today. My mother would make our clothes and crochet afghans which I still have a few of them today. She would also make our mittens, hats, and scarves. She would…[Read more]

@Kyla I always think it’s so nice to learn all these handwork when we are young, of course, it’s never too late to learn now. I just learned how fun and relaxing it is to do handwork in these recent few years. Moreover, I think it’s really good to learn these handwork skills from our parents. These are really good activities, and I enjoy doing…[Read more]
