[Nfb-krafters-korner] Fridays's question

[Cari Kness]

I learned the first chain of finger crochet at one of the camps as a 
kid. I would try and make a chain out of anything I had like string, 
yarn, shoe laces... you  name it I tried. At one point a friend 
showed me how to make a blanket but I got really confused so I didn't 
do much. Then after I moved to Madison I hooked up with someone who 
taught me how to add to that first chain. That was probably 8 year 
ago give or take.
Peace,
Cari
