[Nfb-krafters-korner] is it hard to do?

[Blindhands at aol.com]

Comments made like, "that must be hard to do".  No it is not hard to  do as 
most crafters feel it is a labor of love!
 
Let's face it those blue ribbons, getting to display your finished projects  
and just the , Gee whiz that is beautiful and how did you do it is what makes  
the people spend  their time making their creations.
 
That is why I like to sit back and listen to everyone's comment.  When  I 
weave a shawl, I really don't know what the color of the yarns are and how  they 
look, so I get to view my work through others eyes.  Then I tend to  repeat 
them so folks can't believe I can't see it.  I will tell them that  this shawl 
has little black and white beads woven in with the gray wool and that  it has a 
strand of 100% angora rabbit that is black That feels so soft that  makes the 
kinda plaid look and I through in a black strand of 100% alpaca to  hold 
along with the angora to make it as thick as the gray wool with the  beads.  Then 
I fringed it with a 9 inche fringe one strand of the angora  and one strand of 
the alpaca.  Those 2 fibers are so soft.
 
I just described one of the shawls I made.  Those words basically came  from 
people that made the yarn and and saw my shawl.  
 
Hey,anyone that comes to Dallas I will let you feel this shawl it is  awesome 
and the bunny fur has hblossomed such a haylow 
 
Without their eyes and their words this would be a nice feeling triangle to  
me.
