One of my students sent me a photograph.
“Nomura Sensei. I’ve made a sweater for my dog. Take a look.”
“How cute it is! How did you learn to make it?” I asked her.
“I saw some YouTube tutorials and got interested in a handmade work called crochet.”she replied.
“Do you use the machine or your hands?”
“I do it all by hands. It gives me a chance to sit , relax , and enjoy my time.”
I like the way she puts it.
Doing things in a traditional way surely gives you something special.
I remember my childhood days. My mother was weaving yarns to make me a muffler for the upcoming winter. It took her many days to finish the handmade job. It didn’t matter to her how long it would take. She was just enjoying her time.
Mom did not care if her cat played with her yarn balls and ended up in tangled messes.
